It had to happen someday - One of us had to give up. Or to die. And what better day (and time) would there be to give up (or to die) than this! This precise moment. This precise time.
So here it is... 952 posts and more than a thousand pics... 13 years and some hiatus... hundreds of hours and millions of thoughts... All come to an end today. This precise moment. This precise time.
I have deactivated my Facebook account after removing almost everything, deleted more than 3/4th of my Quora content, and left Twitter. Other platforms were either already deleted or my presence is obscure. This month and the past have seen a lot of deletion or closure. With the closure of this blog, one more closure completes.
Some do it swiftly, like a bandaid; some do it casually, like a WhatsApp status, and some do it surreptitiously, like ... you know how! Me? Well, I stretch the closures long and hard... one account each day, one wound each time, one closure each nostalgia! So, with the closure of this blog, one more closure completes. This precise moment. This precise time.
सदा न काहू के रही
प्रीतम की गल बाँह,
ढलते ढलते ढल गयी
सब तरुअन की छाँह !
