Coming back to life!!!

The title of the post is a well known song by Pink Floyd and as such carries an obvious resonance with me an all-out Floyd fan. It also happens to be the first line that came to my mind after i could no longer contain the desire in me to revive this long forgotten blog. Yes, this very blog of mine was once a menifestation of my creative passions, a celebration of the joys of writing before I simply lost interest in it. Much like a child that gets bored after a while with his new toy train. Its routine run round and round the tracks that once got the child excited now barely evokes any interest. Soon after, it is relegated to the shelve of old toys to join the ranks of old and abandoned play things. This blog,my child, was reserved a similar fate.

To narrate its story, this blog of mine was born a premature child to the passions of an uncertain parent - my desire to write, the prolific word churner of once that now lives in a state of abandonment, longing for the return of its beloved muse. This muse whose beauty was once the object of its passions, whose trail led it to unknown territories of the heart where stories lurked in unformed shapes and words lived in the shadows, left it after she could no longer feel in it the same zest and virility of the past. Living in a state of perpetual bereavement, it soon forgot of the existence of the child(blog).

To carry the bored kid's and the toy train's story further, this kid grows up to be an adult and one fine day discovers this very toy train of his childhood in one of the delapidated cupboards (in a junkroom of his house). With tears in his eyes, he lifts and holds it close to his heart remembering its ritual circular runs and the sense of wonder that it once evoked in him. He desperately looks for its missing pieces, hoping to give it a new life. But is it really the train thats coming back to life or is it something in the child (now an adult)? To put the same question differently, is it that the train had ceased to live or had something in the child died?

I for one know that its not merely this blog thats coming back to life.
