Sayy's (365/365) ~ The END!

Dear All,

All good things should come to an end, so does all bad things! So today, its the 365th post on a self proclaimed "365" challenge. Just like a typical human being while in the journey I yearned for the destination and today when I reached the destination I started feeling nostalgic about the journey.

It happened during school days too, when I was at school wanted to grow up as soon as possible and attain a perceived notion of "freedom" . So that the world will be all out to be explored. But then, from the day that "freedom" was attained, I started missing whole list of things including school, the carefree life without responsibilities, a mind filled with joy, the child like innocence, etc. 

Like wise during the 365 days, I badly wanted to reach this post. But when I sat down to write this post was thinking that 365 could have been a bit longer. Was thinking whether to extend it to reach 500 posts. But my mind reminded me of the irony that during the 365 journey there are countless fake posts. So after a few days of contemplation I decided that a post a day will end here! I would definitely blog,  but probably it will be a post a week or when ever mind says that I have something nice to write about. At least I hope that I will not be making fake posts hereafter.

So now its time for the vote of thanks, so ladies and gentlemen with that I would like to thank each and everyone of you who had been reading the stuff I put up here, special thanks to JK, Nee, Sach, Angel, Roshni, Sanderenu, Gayathiry, Indi, Uthaya, Dee, Jack Point, Gowri, Sabesh Anna, Ishara, Vimal and all the others who took time to leave comments on the blog and apologize me for replying to those comments very very late at times. To be honest, when the comment arrives, it brings a child like joy and it  also reminds me that - "oops! there are people who read this crap!, so let me try to do a better job on my next days post!" Last not least, a big thank you to all the others who had been silently reading the stuff I put up here and had given me feedback in person at different times. Don't worry I can hear those people who are cursing, after 365 days of fake posts, now he wants to add a vote of thanks. Its all part of the game - Politics is the name of it :D

Wishing all the locals a very happy new year! Have fun!

Signing off after 365 days,

Yours truly,

Sayy

  1. Thank you for your contribution and fortitude in keeping to your resolution. I glanced at the occasional one when time permitted and how better to end the old year and begin a new one on a different basis.

    Whenever you have a brainwave do share it with us, it is great to know what others wish to say! To the New Year and New Inspiration

  3. Good ride Sayanthan ...Congrats ... Your syndicate is one of many priority ones in my Google reader. I think more than half of your blogs were worthy, which is a good rate for a daily blogger!

    Sometimes, the information you provide are kinda familiar to me since we both come from quite similar background ... I think your "slipper" post was the standout of all! I might have forgotten some of your initial gems too.

    If I may, I would suggest you to fix a weekly column! that would engage users to turn up regularly ... random posts are still good, but you need a regular column to have that stickiness factor!

    cheers!
