Introduction

Effectively, this dictum should have preceeded all my previous posts, but i have been a firm believer of better late than never- So here goes...

This blogspot was basically created out of purely selfish motives i.e. to see my thoughts online :D Not for any altruistic purposes whatsoever nor is there any ulterior aim in sharing my thoughts... I have spent the best part fo my life reading- books, novels, articles, ideas, poems, myths, fairy tales, fantasies and fiction in an attempt to fill my time and to escape from physically strenuous passtimes prescribed for bored kids.. But in the end it became my solace and companion.. a bad day can be cured by a good book. Like yin and yang, reading begets writing- and thus an outlet for my muses was required- resulting in the creation of this blog...

To me, ideas are the only things we as individuals contribute during our time here.. be it habits, opinions or beliefs- these unique characteristics of a person are borne out of intellect.. and being a human and therefore possessive of pride and ego, I have endeavoured to create a space wherein I may spew my thoughts in prose, thus sparing my friends the ordeal of having to listen to my diatribes....

This blogspot would be privy to reception (post-editing) of my ideals and writings, it would function as a primary vent for my feelings and emotions. In short, it would be the equivalent of a thousand words (a picture's worth) insight into my mind... these dictates will shape in the form of verbose and lengthy writeups or be equally winding poems- read at your own risk!!

I almost forgot- vpworld- the name stuck cause of my initials which read of an executive ranking despite my being way down in the corporate ladder (the folly of parents is borne by their children).. It has been my nickname due to the fact that my name is a cliche... world because what I write here is my own, no one else's... It defines my space and being in this vastly overpopulated virtual consortium...

Without further ado I give unto you- vpworld!!!

[Applause!!!!]
