Writer's Block

There are several reasons why someone might find it physically impossible to write. Some of these reasons include :
* Boredom
* The lack of inspiration
* A general laziness seeping into the system after weeks of lazing around, eating mum's food, and watching meaningless television

I however, have no such excuses.

Over the past few months I've travelled a lot, read a lot, changed a lot (Yes! Once or twice a day) and sat in enough airports to be able to atleast come up with three interesting things to say about AirDeccan, Gujju travellers or Delhi women.

However, every time I sit down to write, the words just don't come out!

There is a certain pressure that what one writes must have meaning, must be profound, must be funny. After all, the point of any writing is to make a person laugh, or to make a person think. Hopefully both.

Yet, everything I think about writing seems insipid, or mundane.
Hence, I'm taking the easy way out and writing about not being able to.

Amen!
