So It Goes

So It Goes.

A very famous statement made by an author and has been so popular that it has been tattooed on and on a hundred times.

I do not know why I want to start my blog with this; but I do.

This blog will be about all things mundane; thoughts, quotes, books, reflections, make-up, current affairs, food, travel etc. To sum it all up, it will be intellectual Gibberish. Lets call it just gibberish.

I will try jotting things once a week but seeing how new I am to blogging I might falter afew. I am still not used to typing directly on the computer, I somehow have a frame of mind which says you don’t write on a computer you write in a journal. Call me old-school but that’s who I am.

Just some info on ‘So it Goes’ – Well, this 3 three letter statement occurs 106 times in the novel ‘Slaughterhouse-Five’ by Kurt Vonnegut. The story continually employs the refrain "So it goes." when death, dying, and mortality occur, as a narrative transition to another subject and to explain the unexplained.

So it Goes I feel is a mockery on Life. One can never explain it. It is sad, it is beautiful, it is beautifully sad & is sadly beautiful as well. Lets leave the heavy topics for later but I think ‘So it Goes’ stands in the same place as ‘This too shall pass’.

Anyways, Time to wrap up my ramblings as very aromatic mutton curry calling.

Ciao.
