Back but not back….

Posted by ⋅ ⋅ 24 Comments
Filed Under  , , , , , , ,

I’ve been back from Basel for over a week now. That was after a 10-odd day sabbatical for personal reasons….

In the last week or so I’ve posted maybe 3 blog posts? I don’t know why that is. People who know me here know that I have been a regular blogger, almost anal about it as a matter of fact. And now…I don’t know what’s wrong with me. It’s not that I don’t have anything post. My Google Keep is full of silly jokes and comments and poems and ghazals, my phone and camera with pics – all the usual crap I post is locked and ready.

But, I am not. And I wish I knew why.

About hbhatnagar

I need to fill this up with much better content than I had populated it with earlier. Why I write a blog maybe? I started blogging in 2009 or thereabouts. I was a newly turned atheist and wanted to converse with others of the same persuasion. We're not exactly a big population group in India! It didn't go very well and I sort of lost interest, posting a few things now and then. I got a lot more regular over the last few months and have been posting almost daily since February '15. There were many reasons why I gradually became more regular in posting, but one way or the other, here I am! So this blog has taken shape, being at different points in time my showcase, my comedy club, my art gallery, my book club, my therapist, my close friend, my innermost self....but always my little corner of the world. You are all welcome to visit and I hope you stay awhile! A few points about me because I don't want to lead anyone on(and trust me this does become an issue more often than I'd care to admit). I'm Indian, the brown-skinned variety; if race, ethnicity or skin colour is an issue, you don't have to get to know me any more than what you see on my blog. I'm 40, so if age is an issue, please be informed accordingly. I was a doctor, an ophthalmic surgeon for 10 years before I quit practice.

  3. Everything is a pendulum. You’ll get back into the swing of things.

    See what I did there?

  5. Miss you, Dr. Hb. Hope you will feel better soon.
    Sometimes, there is no answer to why. Take easy.

  6. Coz the blogger hasn’t got the memo that the sabbatical is over and still enjoying the vacation.. 😉

    Let the blogger take the break and hope to bounce back with your usual energy and a little more.. 😉

  10. I know one of the most frustrating things is not knowing why we stop doing our usual or why we don’t feel like ourselves. I hope you find your answer and feel better soon. xo
