Why, oh why?

Why should I write again over here? This place doesn't seem familiar anymore. This UI, which, once upon a time, used to put me in the mood to write seems to have lost its knack. My mind isn't blank, but is nothing more than a big ball of frustrated neurons. I'm not even following any blog these days. In fact, many people who had started blogging around the same time as I did, have stopped writing. I feel like I belong to an outdated generation of bloggers. Blogging isn't even 'cool' any more.

Then why should I come back to it?

Because there are 3 comments asking me to start writing again, on the last post, which is more than an year old?

Because I'm probably not as obsessed with writing better and polishing my posts as I was after the English literature courses in college?

Because this post just flew off my fingers?

Because I find writing therapeutic?

Because I feel I need to write?

Because I was told by some that they actually liked what I wrote?

I don't know. Maybe I'll give it another try. Maybe this is that try.

Very tragic, no?

Most blogs on my reader feeds are extinct.
