How does one begin? To blog or not to blog...has been a question that has hung in my to do cupboard for eons. Today I took the plunge. Triggered by an argument with a friend. No, this is not an angry response, just a way for me to express my anguish and feelings.

The argument was trivial in hindsight...when it happened it was not... it  grew and grew every passing moment to finally silence us both. Then the silence was unbearable and as always I had to take the first step. Make the first move...say the magic words and hope that it would make us both see sense.

It did. That's how this blog finally appeared. I wanted to speak, to anyone....just be heard.... and to hear....its not enough for me to just see text.. I need to hear voices, listen to inflections in them....hear the voice breathe and enunciate....that works like a touch pad for me....words come alive....emotions play their part....faces and eyes have roles to play just as thoughts do .....today my mind is lighter...having spoken and having heard....
...today I realised that my relationship will only get better if yesterday's argument does not stop today's communication.
