Earn and earned…

Reluctant to accept fault.

One is not perfect by default.

Ignoring the truth aside.

Seems one has achieved pride.

Fake sense of sensing proud.

Surrounded by…

Opening mouth, always loud.

Reject everything of relevance.

Taking unnecessary vengeance.

Disrespect all and want respect in return.

One can get awe but no “respect” in return.

As…

Respect and blessings are earned with humble attitude.

Curse is earned with insolent attitude.

Curse is earned with insolent attitude.

Stop and think…

What should I earn?

what have I earned?

Is it awe and curse?

Or…

Is it respect and blessings?

Blogger Interview Tag

My friend Neha of FORGOTTENMEADOWS, nominated me for this challenge. This is the first time I am taking up the challenge. I would like to thank her for considering me for the same.  Neha is a brilliant writer whose poems will make you speechless. Her posts are beautiful and when it comes to short poems, its better to say she is the master of short poems. Do visit her blog for amazing literary pieces. 🙂

Here are the rules:

* Mention the person who tagged you.
* Answer the questions in full.
* Don’t forget to tag up to ten other bloggers at the end.

Here are the questions and their answers:

How did you get into blogging?  

I wrote my first poem which was in Hindi when I was in class IX and again a Hindi poem in class X but unfortunately I lost both of the poem which I was unable to preserve. Due to that anger I stopped writing for two years. 🙂 But there was always a voice coming from inside to write. So I started writing again when I entered college for persuading engineering and initially I wrote in notes on facebook for few months and was getting reviews there. I created my blog in February 2011 from one of my friend suggestion without knowing what a blog is. I posted my first post in April. 😦  My  Hello World post which is default is still active and have preserved it yet and will be preserved in future too. 🙂  I was not posting frequently and there have been big gaps of 6 months also but slowly and slowly I learnt what is blogging and how to use it and  I am here and just want to continue this journey as much as  I can. 🙂

What advice would you give to a blogger just starting out?

I don’t consider myself in a position to give advice to novice blogger’s as I am not a veteran. I am a novice and still in learning phase, just learning from many prominent bloggers.

What would be your dream campaign?

Spreading awareness regarding your  own inner strength which people usually fail to recognise.

Do you have a plan for your blog?

I don’t have any specific plan as of now. Just wanted to keep going and share among you all the wonderful and respected bloggers.

What do you think about rankings?

I think every literary piece is having something special in it. Writing is a creativity and every literary piece is unique and has something to offer.

Following are the nominees for this interview challenge:

• Swatii
• Priya Jivrajani
• Gaurav Luthra
• Purba Chakraborty
• Neha(guddu)
• Poetry and chocolate and books
• Jackie Jain
• Hargun Wahi
• Sapphire Fire
• Smiling Notes

All the nominees are free to accept/reject the interview tag. The above nominations are not in any particular order. Hope to have your response. Happy blogging!… 🙂
