Sharing my Thoughts

-
So I finally decided to start a Blog today.

Oh I love reading, I enjoy a good write-up on anything, anyway, anytime. I guess that is why I always doubted I could write. I believed it would not be good enough to read, not on the level of what even I would term 'good enough'.

Well today, I decided what the Flip! I am not contesting for the best literary work of the century. I just want to be able to put my thoughts somewhere, share with others what I think on 'Nothing'. Yes my Thoughts on Nothingness.

The title of the blog came to my mind just as I decided I was starting on. My thoughts on nothing and everything: daily life, food (let's put it out there I LOVE food), love, politics (when I can stomach it), conspiracy theories and everything new I learn.

Just as I have learnt 'Nothingness' is actually a thing. Decided to look the word up and found out it is a philosophical concept relating to nonexistence. I was not thinking that deep when I picked the title; rather I mean the blog will be centred around Nothing in particular but everything I think about and want to share.

The world is currently in the middle of Covid-19 pandemic and a new word is running around on the internet 'Covidiot(s)'. A Covidiot, basically, is anyone who flouts simple instructions put in place to curb the spread of the virus. Or acts irrationally, putting his/herself and others in possible transmission of the Covid-19 virus.

So I welcome you to share in my views and express yours as well (NOTE to self and others: let's do so respectfully please). Please Stay safe, stay at home where there is a stay-at-home instruction, maintain social distancing and don't be a Covidiot!

..xoxo

  photo credit:  Pinterest Flashback to a thirteen year old me who's alter ego was a Gothic-punk red hair girl, I had a crazy to-do bucket list. Some things off the list includes getting piercings everywhere possible, get a ratchet hair cut, and full sleeve tattoos. Eventually got just one extra ear piercing, got an haircut although it was not ratchet but never a tattoo. Is there one thing you always wanted to do but just cannot do because of a reason or the other? Well for me, it getting permanent tattoos. I LOVE tattoos.     As a young girl I wanted so much to grow up and be able to get tats without anybody chewing my head off (whispers parents) . By the time I grew up, at least old enough to take such decisions without recourse to anybody, I had learnt it is not permissible based on my religious belief. This however did not stop my appreciation of tattoos on people.     Body art; some with cultural significance (e.g. Tā moko by the Mā...
