HELLO AND WELCOME !

 I am unique and simple person.

I live my life the way I want it to be and I love making my own decision.

The mob mentality is not for me and I mostly associate with people who will respect my decision.

For me, a large crowd are usually accompanied by too much negativity,backbiting and "It is better to be hated for who I am,than to be loved for who I am not". A

 quote by an American songwriter and musician Kurt Donald Cobain.

I'm an explorer,thinker and every blog I've taken on was guided by my curiosity,creativity and understanding.    

I use this site just to try as what an American author  Stephen King said: "There's No Harm In Trying   and Hoping for the Best as long as  You're Prepared for the Worst".

I'm constantly changing and what you can see here today might not be here tomorrow!

I hope you enjoyed and learned something new from this site.
