A Portion of My Thoughts.....

Emotions can be expressed in various ways. Dance,music,art,literature.....the list seems endless. For me, writing is one of the most important forms of expression. A well-written and motivating article can move a country into rebellion and urge them to fight for justice. For example,'Kesari', the Marathi newspaper founded by Bal Gangadhar Tilak,a prominent leader of the Indian Independence movement ,ignited fires of fury and thoughts of an uprising in the minds of the Marathi people,which in turn led to a revolution that is still remembered today. Gandhiji's autobiography,"My Experiments with Truth" continues to inspire millions of people,not only in India,but around the globe. Novels, irrespective of any genre express a part of the author's vivid and wild imagination ,which many a time stirs a passion of writing inside many to-be authors.Art,another beautiful tool of expression,when interpreted correctly conveys powerful messages.

I was just sitting idly the other day when an interesting thought occurred to me,"what if this world possessed no writers, poets and authors?"

I'm a voracious reader and can read for hours. There is something comforting about those velvety covers and  frail,yellow pages. Books are buses that help you reach distant islands, dense forests or imaginary lands. Fiction is my personal favourite. Those fictitious characters have personalities you can never place in ordinary mortals. Sometimes,I wish I was one of these imaginary,but exciting characters in one of those electrifying books,which enclose incidents beyond our wildest imaginations. A book and I are BFFs! Yep, this is my idea of paradise!
