Hello

My name is Yasir and for those who don’t know me, I’m a 20 something year old madcap. I firmly believe that sanity is only relative and as such, in my book, almost everyone is slightly mad. Madness, after all, makes this earth such an interesting place to live on.

I feel that every blog should serve a useful purpose. Blogs by shameless exhibitionists who have a penchant for flaunting every insignificant happening in their miserable little lives as though they were the greatest miracles to have ever occurred, are in my very humble opinion, utterly useless. They serve no other purpose than to entertain an asinine audience, which arguably has the collective intellect comparable to that of a two year old primate.

This is the second year and fourth blog of my short yet very interesting blogging career. I started my first blog as therapy, to help heal the very deep wounds of my short life. Writing, I feel, has freed me from the shackles of nineteen years of pent up emotion. Yet I also feel that I have barely scratched the surface, there are still many things I have still to come to terms with, feelings to reconcile and many bridges to cross and burn. I cannot share with anyone who knows me, the baring of my soul for that would in my book be a cardinal sin. For another person to know my self would be a serious breach of the boundaries of my being; a gross invasion of my privacy.

There is a group of people, very few in numbers, who due to their own shortcomings are misunderstood by all. David Keirsey and Marilyn Bates call them the “healers”; I belong to them. Not being gifted with the art of gab nor of exceptional wit, I have been left to contemplate the deeper meanings of life. While not even my own mother knows me, I have found solace in the belief that the bond of love and care between mother and brood transcends understanding.

My second blog, a very short lived affair, was created to allow me to share the fruits of my contemplation. My third blog, in conjunction with another brother, lasted only a week or so before we again got entangled in the mysteries of what we call real life.

I created this blog in order to promote myself as a writer. I intend to post excerpts from my old blogs and write short stories, spiritual compositions and philosophical expositions.

As a warning, I would like to mention that although my writing is usually very easy to read and follow, it is also usually very serious in nature. It may very well dishearten and depress. It is not meant for those used to reading flippant blogs or fairyland novels.
