The Inside Life Goes Live!

Where SYTYL ends tomorrow with only two labels being active from July - I am sharing the link to my new and only blog - The Inside Life.

The tagline of my blog is - The soul would have no rainbow, had the eyes no tears.” - John Vance Chene!

I have given my readers a hint about this blog but you have to read the first post to know more about it.

Last Post For Golden Moments of Writing.

Before I take off this blog - this is the last post under the label 'Golden Moments: Writing'. Of course you will read my writing updates but only on my FB official author page. To add I will make two labels available from this blog that will direct you to my writing and art accomplishments achieved over the span of four years. Rest all labels will go offline. I am done with the layout of 'The Inside Life' as well.

Versewrights published the following two tanka :

amidst
the ashes
these rose petals …
yet on my bed
I smell his perfume

falling
in the puddle
a dandelion flower …
still I wonder
where to go

And my certificate and book of the contest comes home. It is such an honour to be the winner of this contest. A detailed feedback of the judges left me overwhelmed. Three lines but so much told in them. This is the beauty of haiku.

SYTYL to 'The Inside Life'

Dear Readers -

Amazing journey of 'So You Think You Are Living' comes to an end. 6 years and lot of blogging. From emotions to thoughts - I blogged every bit of my life here. But as the saying goes - one journey ends so that we can start another, or if God closes one door He guides you to another. 

SYTYL will be taken over by my new blog 'The Inside Life'. The title seems quite interesting, and that's the feedback of my friends with whom I shared this idea. I have closed  all other blogs, as well. I just want to write one blog as time permits me. SYTYL will be offline from July beginning once I share the details of my new and only blog.

FOR MY WRITING UPDATES - please refer my FB official author page. 'The Inside Life' will not redirect to my writing accomplishments. 'Garden of Chocolates' and 'Pyaar Se Pyaar Ho Gaya' are always available for my clients and readers. Yet not being on FB anymore, I make my work available to my readers.

It is time management. I do not want to be socially connected through any social portals (Facebook, orkut, instagram, and blah blah.....<3) but my FB pages are my investment of my work and efforts, and I do not want to disappoint my readers :). I will be creating a portal for Kala Sutra or maybe The Inside Life will have a blog about every painting. But as of now - NO!

Thank you for your messages in the last few days around my absence from FB that got me here to blog. Yes my account is not available anymore. Maybe once I pack my bags and go to Bali - one day I might be back....:):)...(a good joke)...

What is 'THE INSIDE LIFE'? 

I give you a quick hint. You have to wait as I will post it on this blog before this month ends. You will get to read some true facts of life on this blog - not from my life but my observations that maybe you missed to see or realise. And taking my profiles off from FB et al is the first hint.

PS: To read my writing updates - refer to my page at the above link. 

I will share 'The Inside Life' link before 30th June until then stay blessed, and stay healthy!
