George Orwell once wrote, in an essay titled “Why I Write”, that “there are four great motives for writing”. And what are these? One, sheer egoism. Two, aesthetic enthusiasm. Three, historical impulse. Four, political purpose. But unlike Orwell,and given that am neither a scholar nor an intellectual, my only reason to write is my passion to arrange words on a piece of paper to see later what I am thinking...am of the belief that a word once written gets an eternal life.
