Tag Time

I think I am doing a tag after quite some time. This one is somewhat different from other tags. Here I have to dig and search my own archives and post links to my older posts, using the help of these five keywords, namely: Family, Friend, Self, Love, Anything. So, one post for each of these words. It seemed easy at first, but appeared otherwise once I started browsing. Once I am done, I am supposed to pass this tag on to five others. I however want to leave it open for anyone who visits my blog. Might be relevant for those who have been blogging for at least a few months.

Family: I don't remember writing much about my family and I think I can recollect just two posts, both of which had something to do with my dad. Not intentional, but it just happened that way. The first one was "Confessions of A Son: Part 1". It was the one where I went on and on about all the things I did, which I should not have, and then wrote about it, with the hope that dad would never read it. He still has not. So, I'm safe so far. The second one was more recent and it was based on me realizing that I could have some meaningful conversation with my dad after all. It was titled "My Dad and I" and I think I wrote it during my first visit back home after I got back from USA.

Friends: I was surprised with this one. I searched and searched and I did not find one single post where I had written about any of my friends. Bummer. I don't really know why. I love and adore all my friends and I am even proud of the fact that I have quite a few different set of friends, but not a single post dedicated to any of them? Shame on me.

Self: I know I have written quite a bit about myself. Most of the tags I did have been quite revealing, sometimes much more than necessary, but my all time favorite has to be the post about my name, and how I got to liking my name. It was a post titled "Varghese - D'Wergiz" and I believe it came at a time when I was realizing that it was indeed a nice name and nothing to be shamed about.

Love: This is one area which I did not want to write about again, but ironically, it has been the most written about. I don't really know which ones to post here but if I had to pick, I might go with this and this and this and maybe this one about the train ride, because back then it meant a lot to me. It's obviously obsolete and meaningless now though. There are a few more, so if you feel jobless enough, then go through the archives.

Anything: This should be a lot easier, but heck no. More options, more confusion. I think i would pick two in this category. One is quite recent, where I wrote about calling 911, and the other one was older and it was a one where I had listed out some of the most stupid or dumb moments of my life and it was aptly titled, "How Stupid I Say".

I do invite anyone visiting this blog to try a hand at this tag, and please do let me know you have done it, so I can go through it. And before I forget, I promise to do a post on my friends, pretty soon.
