In the
school bus again.
I just
found out that some people, you people, read this blog for a particular
purpose ....that of gathering, bits and bytes of the authors' lives, to such an
extent that some of my friends commented that these are things that
attract people more to a blog.
And now that I'm pondering over it, would unveiling personal data be synonymous to sky-rocketing the page views. What are you really seeking for? Sensationalism, gossips, intrusion into one's personal life?
But that's the purpose of mass media, right? So again it brings me to this perpetual conclusion that I have time and again emphasized on - the media sells what YOU want and you can't really blame them, there's a demand and they're going to supply it.

Now the big
question is: Is Our Alter Ego ready to be that kind of media? YOUR kind of
media? That platform, that seems to satisfy, to quench your lust for
sensationalism, gossips and intrusion?
Now let's pause that. If I was in your place, and probably reading this, it would have triggered me thinking: "Do we actually have that kind of interest in other's lives? Are we that dirty? Is it all we seek form is knowledge about others?"
Honestly, why don't we just share knowledge? Why not try to reach out for knowledge about ourselves - because honestly our Alter Ego has as one purpose which is to make each one of us to engage in a conversation with our own Selfs. This article is the concrete example that tries to push you into thinking about your Self. So, is it more interesting to know about others more than your own true self?

Is it
that your soul seeks only to know about others? Is that who you are? And mind
you, there's nothing wrong about being that way! That is who you are! And you
are beautiful just the way you are! There's no greater fun for you to read
about others, that's your identity!
But then,
what you should probably acknowledge here, is that you are choosing to be that
way! And that contributed to your beingness! Cherish that! Love it! Play with
it. There's nothing more satisfying and reveling than being aware of who you
are! ;)
Closing
words from Rushaa, who so kindly typed this whole text whilst I tried to
desperately slow down my pace during narration! :p : “Please do read. Rhea is
desperate for some comments. God bless!”
Thank you
for that very elaborate ending clause Rushaa, I admire your love for words!
