I've recently got addicted. Addicted to blog-reading. Sitting through the night, just following one link to another, reading views of people - some of them pro's in expressing them, some newbies.
Some blog entries are just one-liners. They have this knack of saying a lot in that one sentence. Eg:-
"When you look back in your life to the times when you were extremely sad, disappointed or the times when you were extremely happy and delirious... more often than not you will see that things weren't as bad or great as your first impressions of them at that moment."
"Life is a continuous chase. Stop running after one thing to start
running after another. No end in sight. :("
Some of them are like totally devoted to social issues. I HATE them. All they do is, sit around and crib about some situation ( be it the traffic situation, be it the reservation quota, be it the degrading environment, or be it what the news channels are broadcasting ), but they just keep on complaining about it. And not just blogs, atleast one of the four times in lunch at office, you find a person cribbing about the traffic at Sakinaka or on the road in front of IIT. Really, if you are so concerned, please stand up from your comps and seats, go out and do something about it! For god's sake, stop coming in your cars alone - start car pooling - urge others to do the same! And if you can't .. STOP cribbing!
Oh wait! What am I doing? Cribbing!! I should stop cribbing about the cribbers! Oh, there was this thing I was gonna do to create awareness about the environment. Time to start working on that.
Stop Cribbing. Start working.
Mood: Aching to do something constructive.

Never knew the profound impact my blog was having :P
I dont finding cribbing unnecessary and I dont think everyone who cribs should stand and do something abt it...Do you believe that if you dont know dance you cant criticize one?!
I partly agree wid oopsie...no, we can't change everything around us or sometimes even a little bit...but then cribing to let it out is not all a waste...

Never knew 'people' were following my blog this closely :)
!Ups
Criticizing and cribbing are two different things. Cribbing is unnecessary complaining, when you can do something about the situation. Eg. start car pooling for pollution, simply stop watching the channels for news things ( their TRP's fall, they will come up with something good).
Criticism can be constructive, a person can learn something if we criticize his dance, and can improve upon it. Though this should be done in a proper way, tell me, have you ever appreciated hootings from the audience who themselves don't have the guts to go on the stage themselves?
Though, I do feel that I should go a bit easy on the bloggers, finally, blog is a place to express one's opinion!
!Vati,
You can't change about some things, true, but about the things you can change you should take the initiative!!! ( and not crib about it! )
but i *like* to crib! :(
what you have express is almost what i was thinking of writing a post on.. and it may sound plagiarized when i write it, but i will still...
for days now ive been going through 100s of blogs just to find out someone who writes like me! - the lighter stuff in life but bad luck has me in its evil clutches!
