On starting all over

As I restart blogging I am encountering a lot of resistance from within..... and that is what I am going to look at in this post....

- A part of me is comfortably seated in the identity of 'the guy who stopped blogging'.... with this post i break that identity, I move away.....so often its so difficult to move in a different direction 'coz its not just a shift in direction, its a shift in identity

- Then again of course there is inertia.... as there is momentum, there is inertia as well.....the need and tendency to stay in steady state.....so thats another battle altogether

- there are also lines in my mind about endings and beginings .... so as i start blogging i also end the phase where i did not blog...every end is a beginning and every beginning, an end... And transitions are often painful...

-Writing this also somewhere is a commitment to continuing it...so while i might be very driven to post now...there is a fear that this might once again turn into a cob website...

However for now I have overcome this resistance and take the plunge...
