Yeah, I know I'm a great dancer; but I still think my bum looks huge in these pants!
This is not just a blog about India.
Although it did serve as an outlet for my thoughts and observations while I was traveling in South Asia, most of the rickshaw drivers who stuck to me more closely than my sweat-drenched shirt would give a better account of my day-to-day activities. Those six months were probably the most excellent of my entire life; however, I've chosen to retain the title more because the social interactions that take place in that country retain qualities that I think are essential to a good blog: spontaneity, intimacy, and honesty. Hopefully, I stick to them as much as I did to my kurta.
My day is filled with conversations of every kind, whether it be with others, myself, or God; the levels of confusion, frustration, and joy that I derive from them are ascending in that order. Writing is the medium by which I can come closest to externalizing these conversations - a process which, above all else, helps me come to terms with myself better. Which in turn, I hope, helps me better understand the world around me.
