HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?

His head was spinning violently. He could not stand on his own. The whole world was swimming before his eyes as if he was looking through a screen of smoke. He felt that his feet were playing games with him. Every tread seemed to be laborious, with the effort making him sweat. He clamped down the violent urge to throw up and swallowed down the bile that threatened to drown him. The cars that whizzed pass did not make him even blink an eye lid. He felt that he was invincible, except for the revolutions of his head, and even tried to throw some thing at a passing Amby – that was wheezing and sputtering. Later, on retrospection, he would ask to him self, “Why did I take a dig out at that Ambassador?”, it had its own fair bit of problems – like the clogged exhaust, pistons that no longer produced the, escape velocity needed to propel the massive junk of rusting metal forward, or the air horn when in operation, which it seldom did, made a sexagenarian with acute case of Tuberculosis sound...

Last night, I dreamt again about being a real, great blogger. This time I was not able to curb my writing instincts. I decided to be a blogger. The next big, difficult and seemingly impossible task was to christen the blog. My brain is not what it used to be. The monotony of life has settled in, making thinking extremely Herculean and Gargantuan. This blog is an attempt to break out through the thick film that has encompassed the white and the grey matter, is an attempt to escape the mundane, is an attempt to re discover my self.
