Sara’s Weekly Updates

I always wanted to write, like from the last 10 years :-), for various reasons, but didn’t get to do it. Finally doing it now!

1. Why this?

Below are some of the reasons I wanted to write

1. I chat with my friends in private Whatsapp groups or post a status to let my friends & family know what I am up to, but its hard to express my full thoughts or go deep in the chat or status.

2. I am getting a feeling that writing is a discipline to think & reflect. And I do want to learn to think properly & take thinking as an important aspect in my life.

3. I do consume too many information online from media websites, social media, blogs, youtube, etc and feel like I am not mindful enough. I guess writing down my thoughts on what I consume might make me more mindful about it.
   
   This video in my youtube pushed me to take the plunge finally :-)

2. Why now?

Lately I am having this inert urge to write, that I want to share my thoughts in writing and put it out in the world. I guess it’s partly for the same reasons I said above & partly due to working from home in the past few years. Social interactions are less these days and I needed an avenue to express myself, hence doing it now.

3. What kind of community am I looking to build here?

This is primarily for people in my network, friends & family. To let them know what I am up to these days, what are my current interests and what do I notice in this world & my opinions on that. Some of the topics I write might be of interest to you too, and we can connect more deeply & better.

4. What am I going to write here?

I am going to summarize my thoughts on the events that caught my attention in that week with links to further reading.

My topic of interests are broad but mostly falls under one of these topics - tech, politics, family, parenting, personal finance, health, entertainment (movies/series) & books.

5. How often am I going to write?

I am planning to publish it weekly on Saturday night & have it in your inbox ready for Sunday morning leisure read.
