Hello World!

A friend, who also happens to be an engineer type, once said to me that, "All my headaches begin with these two words - Hello World!."  In my attempts to find my Perfect Template and write The Perfect First Post, I am beginning to empathise with him. I've been an avid follower of the Jamil Sisters' blogs, in fact, my weekends are not complete without a cuppa chai, mum's shirmaal bread and an unread post from one of their blogs - every post that emanates from their fingers seem Perfect - to me.

I have  attempted to write before only to succumb to an Intense Personal Scrutiny of myself or dive into realms of fantasy fiction which leave me struggling, or even reluctant, to return to reality. Yet, I am totally at loss as to what to write about today and though I could fill pages with stories about my sister jaan's accident prone adventures in exile; her narcoleptic cactus; the dog who does not register her presence yet barks at every other moving being; her beautiful nursery; her flower-head chopping classes; her deep predicament over the Czech tutor who rarely turns up to class but passes her students or her amazing cooking abilities - I dare not. Only because I discovered this past weekend that she (whispers) Has The Power -  and I can not be seen to do anything that may put me in disfavour to said Powers.  For now, such stories will stay untold - for now.

So, I return to my own predicament of What To Write? A headache later, I am still no closer to solving this. However, in the quest for The Perfect Template, I have renewed my resolve to make My Own Website.  Hence, this will be the start of many new things ahead and, as Life Has Taught Me to do so repeatedly, I shall take it One Step at a Time.

For now, I'll leave you with two beautiful words.  Hello World.
