Why am I here?

My Dear Friends,

Every blog I have read over these years, whatever genre it belongs to, has the first post from the blogger answering the ever so important question,"Why am I here?". Have we really answered the question ever or is it more of a thought to reflect than a question to answer. Today, my question to self is no different as I join the stream of individuals in this vast blogging world. 

If we take a deeper look we will see, this thought to self is what motivates us as individuals in every sphere of our lives - be it at work, at school or with family and friends. The thought itself is the first step in seeking answers to a whole new realm of unexplored thoughts.  'Why are we here' is what brings out the essence of each and every day and gives it a meaning. For me, the "title" of the blogspot is an apt answer to this "king thought" (as I will like to call it)- its all about "The Journey Within". A journey which each of us take at some point in our lives - to know where we came from, where we stand and what we look forward to, to understand if we are moving ahead in life with a sense of direction or is it just life that is happening to us while we continue to exist. Being a 'journey' defines it to be an act "in progress" - an act in the present continuous - an act within. Its the process of self evaluation which we undertake in the midst of the daily rat race we call 'life'.

The simple fact that at every stage in our lives we change the way we pursue and understand the very same set of things around us testifies the existence of this journey and our never ending pursuit to find an answer to this question. As insignificant it may seem now, the thought builds its importance as years pass by... Spare a moment for this "king thought" every single day and life will be more meaningful.

This is my first blog ever - constructive criticism and improvement tips are most welcome, so is some motivation and praise :) 

More coming soon from the world of "A"...
