Googling my Blogger site

My first blog site.. ever!

Since my Blogger account is fairly new, I couldn't remember it's exact URL so I googled 'Stephen Cate Blog'. To my pleasant surprise, the result that came on top was indeed my blog. But not this one from Blogger, it's my throwback-blog that I have completely forgotten to have ever existed!

So, here's it is -

Link to my first blog

This first blog attempt was done in June of 2008. What the - 6 years ago?! Honestly, reading through the text doesn't make any sense to me now. Did I really write that? Haha a blast from the past!

But just like old photos of ourselves, when we were perhaps younger and less conscious about our self-image, getting a feel of the kind of ideas you had years back is a nostalgic experience. 6 years ago, I was a different person. I was always eager for attention and I wanted to insight peoples opinion because I wanted to expound on what I have to say, not really because I want to hear them out. But more of because I just had to let out what I have in mind. Well, maybe that simply is the spur of young age, a young man seeking his way through the thick forest of the new corporate landscape.

I like the title I gave that first ever blog though - 'A New Day'. Now, when ever I hear that phrase, I always get that thud bit of hope for a new beginning, a fresh start. Which ironically is quite the opposite to how I went with seeing a new day in that first blog - 

Everyday, I wake up with the delusion that life is celebrated by embracing things anew.

Now, I'd like to think that I've learned more about being truly hopeful and positive. I've come to agree that life is not all random and Now, I could at least say I've carried on a more mature tone. Less dramatic, less eccentric, and hopefully, less confused.
