Just a thought

                 Amidst the 'must do's' of life : earning money being the numero uno, family, friends...all which revolve around 'others', writing connects one to his/her own self. Going through the poems or other stuff that one jots down, is like graduating in the different levels of the psyche. I have always found a deep sense of peace whenever I have flipped the pages of my diary and re-read them. It has clarified my thinking. It gives me an inner sense of stability as I read them (of course after long gaps because it looks redundant otherwise). Now I hate this as the urgency to yet another 'must do' creeps and I have to leave...
