Lacking Courage

First Baby Step

Ever since I started interacting with writers, I have largely been paralyzed by the feeling of inadequacy of being able to put across thoughts/ ideas in a written format. This was such a deterrent that rather than making a fool of myself, I preferred not to write. In short term this worked. But it was a very stupid way of dealing with issues that paralyzed me because of pre-conceived ideas. After all unless I started to crawl, I am not likely to ever become a world class sprinter or a marathon runner.

Well, I don’t know how far I will go with this new found desire to explore putting ideas into words but am raising a toast to starting on this adventure. Hope those who do decide to walk with me, will like the company.
