Back from hibernation

May 26, 2008 By Partha Bhattacharya 2 Comments

I’ve always wondered if others feel any different from what I do waking up every morning. Though I’m usually late going to bed – 12 if not later – I leave the bed relatively early, before 6 on most days.

A brisk walk in the morning is good for health, so I’m told, and so I do. But left to my own will, I’d much rather spend an hour more in the bed as if to compensate for less sleeping hours.

More often no serious work holds me from going early to bed, but I’ve a strange habit of letting minutes gather into hours sitting in a dark corner and silently going through issues, past and present.

To be honest, a strange lack of will is one reason that prevented me from writing this blog for awhile. Yes there are other works in hand, for example the proposed launching of my web video site soon, and a host of others.

But a post or 2 everyday or every alternate day must not be a big deal…especially when I’ve fairly large number of subscribers who I believe like to read this blog.

Let me pledge I’ll strive hard to write posts ever so often, if not daily. If you, dear reader, like Kolkata Musing, I imagine you’ll not let a lapse or 2 stand in the way of your continued patronage.

    Hi Partha, nice to see you again! Dobn’t worry about not writing for a few days, I know the feeling of lack of will. And also, let me tell you I do the same every night – think of issues, problems and feelings. Unfortunately, I find it would be much more useful to go to sleep most of the times:-)

    BTW, I read some news in one of our Czech newspapers that with the introduction of the ultrasound check-ups during pregnancy, Indian women often decide to abort an unborn baby girl, as girls mean a big expenditure for the family later on. Is that true? If so, there will be a huge lack of women to marry in 20 years…

    Lucie,

    Thanks for sharing thoughts.

    As for unborn baby girls, your fear is unfounded. True, the problem is there in India, but limited to only a few places. Also, the laws are very stringent, and sex determination of foetus is strictly prohibited.
