I started my blog in 2007. It is almost like a manifestation of my soul for
me. It has given me the biggest gift of
my life- my husband. He decided to marry me after reading my thoughts here. But
there was a problem. I was unable to share it with people and this highly
demotivated me. Hence, there were long intervals between my consecutive
posts.
As I entered marital bliss and
subsequently motherhood, I could sense that still something was missing.
Although, I had many tasks in hand at a time- I have a toddler to take care of,
a decent IT job to perform but the urge to understand the higher purpose of my
life grew. I started writing actively again but being poor in networking with
people my dear blog was still lying unknown in the vast virtual space. As Thomas Gray has put:
Full many a gem of purest ray serene
The dark unfathom'd caves of ocean bear:
Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert air.
The dark unfathom'd caves of ocean bear:

And waste its sweetness on the desert air.
Still, my frustrations were growing
when my husband pitched in to help me and told me about IndiBlogger. I
instantly loved the site. I found its UI interesting and simple. Since I have
become a member my posts are much regular. I have made so many friends and
found so many amazing bloggers here. My blog was reborn. Getting comments on my
posts is no more just a dream. I have joined many other blogging groups and
sites but IndiBlogger is my favorite of all. I might not log in to those
sometime but I am regular on IndiBlogger as and when my schedule permits. And
today, lo, and behold- I am finally on the home page of IndiBlogger courtesy my IndiSpire post:
My next goal which is eluding me for
a long time is to have my posts among the Top IndiBlogger posts of the day. I
am not going to give up on this how much my hectic routine comes my way and I trust my friends will definitely help me
to achieve this feat :)
Keep writing, expand your network. This will sure to come :-)
