well as all other things that can be done just once are done after the deepest insights
and with utmost care so too was the task of assigning an address to this little corner of the world done..and may i highlight the word after.. coz in my case it really was after i had given
the deepest thoughts and almost given up hope of naming the blog that the present name was actually born...
it goes like this: you can never look ahead and look back simultaneously..or can you?? well consider this.. each time you look into a mirror you are doing precisely that.. looking back while looking ahead... i love this paradoxical nature.... i knew my blog would basically be about looking back at life but never regretting the past and hence always looking ahead and so both the title and the address had to with mirrors.... as i already said i loved the paradoxical line looking back (while) looking ahead and thus the title was named... the remaining part of thinking of a suitable address was both tiring and painful... tiring because one after another names(basically synonyms and translations ,into unthought of languages, of the word mirror--that i thought of with so much difficulty and thought were novel) were rejected having already been chosen by some early birds, and painful because each rejection hit me directly in the heart from where each of those came out....
they say the darkest hour is just before dawn and no sooner was i on the verge of giving up that out popped the fact that one side of the mirror is silvered and from 'silver' the name of nickleback's album Silver Side Up came to me.. and with a little modification ,that comes easily when you see the last ray of hope, was born the perfect(to me) reference to a mirror and the address of my first blog.. SILVER SIDE DOWN..

to the world outside...here's my hi!!!
and so begins a new journey... its been two whole hours since the clock announced the arrival of midnight... the beginning of a new day... that fateful day when i finally create my own blog.. the 22nd of the last month of the calendar that hangs on most walls around the world....
it all started around a year back when i started noticing the world blog a lot in the so called NEWSpapers(they are full of everything but that) and never really bothered to go through what it actually meant... so time passed by and though my ignorance towards blogs decreased i never really cared to look into someone's blog...until a few months back.. as soon as i had a look at a friends blog i knew i had to have one.. my hands were just itching to write... so here i am doing just that.. sitting at home and hitting away at the keyboard .. i hope this takes away all the laziness associated with diary entries coz though i always wanted to write a diary i never had enough patience to do so...
here's wishing myself endless posting sessions....cheers!!!
