Amit Goes Blogging

by JHSEsq on December 15, 2007

Every­thing about the blog Amit Goes Blog­ging is a bit unusual. Amit takes his writ­ing very seri­ously and appears to have answers to life that work well for him. But he is young, only 24 and a bit tan­gled between the reli­gious and social cul­ture of his native India and the acknowl­edge­ment of a big­ger world and pur­pose. Amit was only blog­ging for a short while when we heard from him. The first post we read on his blog was about him tak­ing a blog­ging break.

But we came back. The post of Decem­ber 10, 2007 titled Sex Starved is about lust, love and an affair. And while Amit has com­pas­sion for a woman in a love­less mar­riage he writes, “She always feared being dri­ven to the fate of a nympho­ma­niac. She watched porno­graphic movies to get over her frus­tra­tion before she realised that this wouldn’t be a life-long cure to her bod­ily demands. Sin with all its hor­rors didn’t dis­cour­age this woman to do what she strongly desired for — a man. She could have left her hus­band but she did not because she loves him too. Why does glory reach for woman even in dis­grace and evoke respect from us?” With a few words she has gone from sym­pa­thetic to dis­grace. Amit has a lot of issues to work out. He strad­dles the fence. He is also a great writer and makes us think. We think about Amit and his world of con­tra­dic­tions. It is a fas­ci­nat­ing read. The Ris­ing Blog­ger is pleased to award Amit our Post of the Day!

Thank you so much Mr. Weiser for review­ing my blog. This is the first recog­ni­tion of its kind that I have ever had. I thank Judd for bring­ing me this great news, that too, on a Mon­day morn­ing! I thank ‘The Ris­ing Blog­ger’ for this recog­ni­tion. It’s sus­te­nance enough for a life­time of writing.

I believe that ‘unless I write it, how do I know what I think’. My effort is to bring out my strug­gle, my vin­di­ca­tion, my darker side in my writ­ings. In the bar­gain, I have devel­oped love for Truth. Never thought Truth could be an engag­ing thing and offer a ready mate­r­ial for writing.

I do not know whether I am a ‘great writer’ as Mr. Weiser puts it, but I am a sen­si­tive writer who wants to pen every shade of emo­tion and every rip­ple of mean­ing­ful thought.

Sorry, but comments are no longer being accepted on this entry.
