If you had to choose between being able to write a blog (but not read others’) and being able to read others’ blogs (but not write your own), which would you pick? Why?
Until I read, I cannot learn
Until I learn , I cannot earn
the wisdom , for which I forever yearn
Until I earn , I cannot return
to the world ,when it is my turn
Until I return , I cannot spurn
the evil called ignorance
Until I spurn , I cannot let burn
the torch to inaugurate my passion
to use my words and ideas to churn
my own space called ‘Pen’lightenment !

Written beautifully dear. I can’t choose one.

Love the poem! What a wonderful reflection..I am afraid I can’t do with just one of the choices. I like to read other blogs because they are inspiring then they motivate me to write more.. 😉 Have a wonderful weekend!

My hubby had left for yearly outdoors exercise for one month so with the change in schedule couldn’t write for a while. I too don’t have clue for Dr. Aruna not blogging these days. May be busy somewhere.

Is this book The secret of NAGAS ? However, we should give more focus on reading other blogs than writing.. Becoz reading makes us wiser, increases our circle and So on.

Hehe ! right guess.. it is ‘The secret of the Nagas’ 🙂 Of course reading is important and enlightening but writing is a way of returning the knowledge thus gained , back to the world… 🙂 So I can’t make a choice between to the two !

On any given day, i would pick reading over writing. I have done that before, used to read a lotta blogs but didn’t write at all for a while. Only when push comes to shove, would I pick blogging over reading.
