kashmirpoems

i have to make a sincere admission about not being able to keep this blog going on a regular basis.usual excuse would be i m busy.i m not.perhaps i m lazy.an honest admission .such admissions are also selfishness driven or motivated.many people praise u when u admit your failings ,your weeknesses.this is a way to acquire greatness.is it not?

kashmirpoems

i dont really know what to write to day --every creative effort has to unddergo periods of inactivity between episodes of activity.......they call it writers block.it comes and goes of its own accord ,never keeps a calender.we may have in fact missunderstood this----creative inactivity is perhaps the norm ,the rule and creativity may then be only an exception,or rather an affliction----targeting only few souls in a society,some sort of a malady-----but one that finally turnes in to an addiction,common to writers artists poets painters etc.
