The nomenclature

There used to be a short story by Jhumpa Lahiri which I read few years back, and liked it very much. But ever since, and strangely enough, I couldn't remember the name of the story. I say 'strangely enough' because I usually do remember things that touch my heart. Neways, a lazy bum that I am, I didn't bother to find out either, until recently, when I happened to bring up one of its very touching line during a conversation with a friend. I couldn't quote the exact line though, but something meaning pretty much the same (The listener couldn't make out, but that wasnt a great matter of concern). It kept me bugging for sometime, and as usual I called up google for help. Now, the name of the story turned out to be 'A temporary matter', and thats what, for some reason popped up in my blank head right while selecting a name for the blog. But alas, the url with same name was unavailable. So, I added a word to it, which, unless read into, shouldn't make much of a difference.

I would have really liked to sound sophisticated and say that I named it so because most of the things that I would put up here would consist of fleeting ideas, thoughts, events, fantasies etc. And by the time I raise my head to read white i've penned down, they might make no sense already. Infact, to that end, I might have wanted to go a step higher by saying (and quite honestly), that this whole idea of starting a blog, might just be a temporary matter in itself.

However, as of now, the first reason still stands. Along with a caveat, that there exists a very thin line from it to others.
