Not sure if such a word (recipronspiration) exists but hey dictionary is after all a catalog of what a huge population has coined, and I feel natural to be among them. Well, websters might not add this word into their dictionary but then there is always this YAD - Yet Another Dictionary where I want to give a decent place for recipronspiration. And you know what? I just right clicked the word and selected 'add to dictionary' within the spellchecker program of this text area.
To the meaning of recipronspiration - reciprocation + inspiration. Though I have been blogging on the professional side for a while, one of my best friend Raju Bhupati inspired me to blog even on the greener side (personal side) of life, beyond technology. He is a passionate blogger himself (such as this) and it was me who inspired him an year ago to blog, given his deep perspectives on diversified aspects of life (social, political, entertainment industry, fashion, spiritual and more).
After an year, he directly and indirectly reciprocated and inspired me to get onto using blogging etc even on the general side of life and hence the inception of this blog - http://theconcertoflife.blogspot.com/. I originally named this blog as concert-of-life but after Raju hinted that hyphens may be a pain to type, I renamed it to theconcertoflie.
I consider life itself as a concert - it starts - it ends - it goes high and low in volume - it switches tempos - it at times has boring stuff - it tickles the heart every once in a while - it throws you into trance every now and then - it purifies your soul and body sometimes and so on...
I want to scribble this blog as my public diary - the dictionary defines a diary as " a record of events, transactions, or observations kept daily or at frequent intervals : journal; especially : a daily record of personal activities, reflections, or feelings" - and I will try to make relevance to the extent possible.
After all, if not for anything else, I need a place to look back at my own journey at a later date and this blog will remain a potential source.
Better late than never,
Ashwin.
Good that you have started a personal blog. the official time we spend in our artificial world is more often more than the time we spend truly for ourselves in such times blogging brings interesting rest to our heated up heads..photos look quite nice and it looks like you guys spent good time.
