Chatting up with a private blogger #8

For several of us, blogging through the years, blogs become a part of not only our lives, but also a reservoir of our memories and thoughts. Not surprisingly, many bloggers choose to keep their blogs on a private mode. Where only few selected people, are invited to peep into the particular person's life and mind.



I think, this is one of the most positive features on blogger as I have never seen such privacy settings on blogs hosted by other websites. Anyway, coming to the point, I caught up with a friend of mine, who also happens to be a secretive blogger. She very kindly gave away some minutes out of her busy schedule to answer questions for Blog Orangy. Read on:




Tell our readers a bit about yourself:
Nanki Sahota: I'm Nanki
Nanki Sahota: N i have a balanced personality that best defines me

Your favorite website on the internet:
Nanki Sahota: facebook
Nanki Sahota: if it is called a website
Nanki Sahota: coz its a social networking site

Blogging as a medium is often used for venting out ire, grudges, narration of love and heart breaks and sad romantic tales. comment.


Nanki Sahota: it indeed is
Nanki Sahota: i use my own blog for the same purpose
Some words for our readers please:
Nanki Sahota: in life
Nanki Sahota: one needs to be an optimist
Some words about your blog/ blogs.
Nanki Sahota: they are so much a part of me
Nanki Sahota: well
Nanki Sahota: my life story
Nanki Sahota: is my blog
Every blogger has his/her story, what is yours?
Nanki Sahota: my blog has my life history in it
______________________________________________________________
So that was it. Bloggers around me, often get entangled in what is called a writer's block. I am seldom affected by it. For blogging is not just about writing blogs and responding to comments, it is also about discovering new blogs and browsing the ones in our bookmarks list. So when I am not writing here, I am browsing someplace else. And sooner or later some idea kicks in.
One of the most refreshing blogs I have discovered in past days is [M]^2. It has a wonderful ambiance, a very interesting header and plainly one of the best personal blogs I have ever been to. Great work done their by blogger Mindy.



Take care folks!

Happy Blogging!

Toddy to Tequila Review: How Does Alcohol Tell the Story of India?

What if the history of India could be read through a glass? In Toddy to Tequila , Sandhya Mulchandani turns alcohol into an unexpected historical guide, moving from Vedic rituals and indigenous brews to Mughal courts, colonial trade and modern distilleries. Her subject is never simply drinking. It is faith, pleasure, prohibition, commerce, class, power and the people caught between them. Have you ever wondered what your drink says about the country you live in? Perhaps you are sitting somewhere with a drink in front of you. Nothing dramatic. No Mughal durbar. No colonial club with men in linen suits pretending the weather is not trying to kill them. You might be holding whisky. Or feni. Or beer. Perhaps a cocktail with a name that requires three attempts before you can pronounce it without embarrassing yourself. Perhaps it is toddy, poured from a humble container that has travelled a very long distance from the fashionable cocktail menus of modern India. Now ask yourself a sligh...

Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
