Milestones!

Sachin going on to make a hundred hundreds is one. Federer getting twenty slams is another. They are big and the world watches with awe. Here's a tiny one for me and from me.

This is my hundredth post!

And the blogger dashboard said this, before I started writing this one...
Tiny, when compared with Sachin and Federer and the like, but a huge one, personally, for me. Because it proves a few things.

One, I stuck to writing and did not give up on it though it has been a few years now and there were periods of zero activity too. Isn't it easy to just to get lazy? However I came back.
Two, kind people have been reading whatever I write and have been encouraging me all through with comments and feedback online and offline.
Three, I can write. :-) Though not all the hundred posts were good, I guess a few of them, say a ten of them were good enough that people came back the second time, read and remembered.

I wonder if the word milestone is apt here, because milestones are measures to see how close or away you are from your target, but in this case, there is no target. I just wish to write more and more.. as long as I have things to write about.

More questions, more answers...

Congratulations Gopi! That is an achievement. If I have time, I will count the number of "SUPER" blogs that you have written. I think I can say on an average out of 3 that you write 1 is really a good one. And out of 5 that you write, 1 turns out to be "SUPER" blog. Hey you forgot to mention, another point this milestone proves:
THAT IT TAKES LITTLE EFFORT AND CONSISTENCY AND A BIT OF MODESTY TO GET CELEBRITY STATUS. YOU CERTAINLY DO HAVE SOME FANS. PROUDLY I CAN SAY I AM ONE OF YOUR FANS. :)
Keep rocking Gopi! Once again congrats on completing a century!

Thanks to both of you. Great pleasure receiving these comments.

One day, when I write a book, you will all get free copies ;-)
