Okay, now I have 500+ subscribers from wordpress.com and another 70 through email. This is not too bad for 5 months with 40 posts, eh? In fact, this is super-duper fantastic.
If you ask me, I did not have any number in mind when I restarted blogging. In fact, I could still run a blog with no confirmed subscribers; I am pretty sure if not humans, a google crawler would definitely read what I have to say. My aim was to publish information packaged with my opinion out there in the open, if readers subscribe to it, its a bonus.
It’s like a famous poet said “ಹಾಡು ಹಕ್ಕಿಗೆ ಬೇಕೆ ಬಿರುದು ಸನ್ಮಾನ?” (Translation: Does a singing bird ever desire to win an award?)
I sincerely appreciate that you stopped by, read them, liked and chose to subscribe with the commitment to read future posts. It means a lot.

I know these numbers are abysmal in comparison with Bloggers using Youtube or other channels. A good Youtuber already would have achieved a silver plaque by five months. But that does not entice me enough to migrate a video platform. It requires an equal amount of research if not more, but the amount of work involved to publish a video online is manifold. Additionally, I don’t see wordpress.com curb freedom of speech anytime soon. At the same time, Youtube, Twitter and Facebook etc. are big fans of censorship.
Thank you once again.

I love your quote and every time I see hear one I try to stick a gold start to them, but have thus far been unsuccessful! But I have found that in our society today, if you fail at something enough times you can actually become known as a professional for what you were originally trying to do! As illogical as that is 🙂
So whether I succeed or fail, I’ll still get that gold star in the end!
I was about to write a paper on this subject entitled ‘Only In Our Illogical Society Is This Possible – Unleashed’. You may laugh at how stupid some people can be, or cry at how stupid some people have gotten, because in our society today, almost everything is going downhill.
I remember watching a movie a long time ago called ‘Idiocracy’ that at the time most people just thought it was a ridiculously funny movie, but when I saw it I thought it was a ridiculously reality that we were headed towards. Today, they are looking back at that movie as having been a prediction for life in America because it is all becoming true.
Have a Great Day!
