Recently during a late night tête-à-tête i was told by a dear friend that i wasn’t bold, rather not bold enough…Now that was a bit of a jolt. (Okay , so it was more like Zeus personally selecting a bolt of lightning for me . i could almost picture him pondering exactly how he should hold his master bolt so that the lightning strikes me exactly where he aims to and after it does, laugh).
i always thought that i was pretty bold, pretty “bindass”. So this statement kind of took me by surprise and made me sit up ( as much as one can after working with more than three dozen kids for over 6 hours straight) and think.
Since i wasn’t really convinced i asked him to elucidate a bit and well, i had to eat my words pretty soon when he pointed out that though writing a blog was a bold step , deciding to write an anonymous one, wasn’t “bold enough”…
Hence the decision to “mboldenme’….How is that exactly going to happen is still a mystery. And where the process is going to result in i have no clue whatsoever. That bit am not worried about. I don’t really want to know either.
What i do want to know: What does it mean, to be bold? And where does boldness end and foolishness begin?
These are the answers i hope to find during this journey…
And help from anyone would be very much appreciated! Any answers to my questions anyone?
Gute Nacht und Ciao!!!

Welcome to Blogging (again?)
Thanks my lil big sis 🙂 …this is really my first attempt to public writing… need all the tips that u can give…
I like the approach. All the best to discover the bolt in yourself, which will embolden you for the times to come.
Nice! Be bold and write more….. ! Alles Beste! – Nandana
That was a “bold” prelude for things to flow under your mighty pen, into this space, in coming days. Eagerly looking forward for the next write up. Alles Gute für diesen Versuch…!!!
