Birthday Blog ( Year 3)

Blogging is a narcissist act. And as I start this entry at 1:20pm sharp on February 1, 2009 I know the exact relationship between narcissism and blogging. For this isn’t just another entry in my blog, this is ‘the’ blog because it celebrates ‘itself’. It celebrates its third year of existence for that is what the blogger decides has decided as ‘celebration time’!

It’s my Birthday! ..Thus Spake the Blog:)

Go, go, go, go
It’s your birthday
We gon’ party like it’s yo birthday
We gon’ sip Bacardi like it’s your birthday

I almost forgot the significance of the date! Thankfully, I remembered it just in time. Well, it isn’t something like Super Tuesday or anything even close to it but it special. It’s the birthday of this blog! Does anyone celebrate or rejoice the start of their personal diaries? I think not. Maybe people do, but I know none. Diaries have a start and finish. So, do blogs if you chose to close it down. But the difference between the two is how “Blog years” are more similar to “Human years” of existence….that’s my personal take on blogging… A blog doesn’t have a limited number of pages to determine when it will end like our lives. The more you write, the fresh pages keep materializing. Like the love of living, keeping you alive!! Or like an Akshyapatra, you could say (The vessel in which food originates on its own) or like Draupadi’s Sari I guess (the length only keeps growing). What a strange comparison to make, isn’t it!! But compared I have, so let it be!
