Whenever you start a new activity, ensure that you are continuing on the second day. The second day is very crucial because if you are not continuing on the next day, there is all possibility that you may not continue that activity after some time. It is a Konkani belief.
So I am in front of the computer to ensure that I dont break the continuity. I am wondering what do I write today.. I should write something which I know very well. But what do I know? I remembered an old malayalam poem.
അനന്തം അജ്ഞാതം അവര്ണനീയം ഈ ലോക ഗോളം തിരിയുന്ന മാര്ഗെ , അതിങ്കല് എങ്ങാണ്ട് ഒരിടത്തിരുന്ന് നോക്കുന്ന മര്ത്യന് കഥയെന്തു കണ്ടു
Anantham ajnatham avarna neeyam Eeloka kollam thiriynna margey
athingil engando ridathi rinnu nokkunna marthyan katha yenthu kandu?
Its meaning is something like this….
This world is endless, unknown and not explainable.. it is always moving.. I am sitting in one corner of this world. What do I know?
In Tamil also there is an one liner
கற்றது கையளவு கல்லாதது உலகளவு.(Kartathu Kai allavu.. Kallathathu ulagalavu ) What you know is only handful. What you do not know has got the size of this world
Good night

Let me first introduce myself with an identity which you will never forget.
Beleive me or not.. I am the No 1 Indian in the country, if you start counting Indians from the southern tip. There is a debate whether Kanyakumari is the land’s end or Indira Point in Andaman is the land’s end. But I strongly believe and wish that it is Kanyakumari which takes this credit.
I am from Kanyakumari and my parents, brothers and sisters live there. If you go to the back yard of my house you will find Indian ocean some 30 metres away. If you still dont believe me, please visit our house. Address is not required because it is the last house in the country. Just walk towards south from wherever you are in India.
I am not a professional writer. I published a few articles on Accounting in professional magazines 15 years back. My busy work schedules did not allow me pursue this passion for a very long time. Of course, it is an excuse which I realise and admit now.
Internet is an amazing world. You can write about anything. There is no need for a long wait to get your articles published by magazines and newspapers. Write on any topic. There is all possibility that no one will read your blog. So no need to worry about spelling and grammer.
A few months back I started writing about Telecom in Articles base, which is a free web site. So far I have published 16 articles. Some of the articles seem to be popular as I started getting feedbacks from the readers.
Good night.
