Starting out

Welcome to KashmirGlobal.  This is one more blog among perhaps millions out there.  The goal here is to express thoughts and ideas about Kashmir, Jammu, India, Pakistan, the world, whatever.  Yes, as the name suggests, this blog is inspired by Kashmir--more by Kashmiri society and ways in which that society can be better integrated with what is going on in the rest of the world.  That's where the global part comes in.  But, our (there are a few of us writing here and we will invite others to post here as well once we figure this out a bit better) thoughts will wander from politics to sports to music to humour to anything else that catches our fancy.  And, it won't be all about Kashmir.  There is a lot going on all over the planet.  

It is hard to start out but others have done it and we hope to contribute as well.   So, do join us from time to time to participate and share your thoughts.  We hope the debates and discussions will be fun and, of course, we hope you will come back.  But, this is not about having an audience as much as it is about seeking an outlet for expressing ourselves.  So, if there's no one on the other side, that's just as well.  In the meantime, if you are concerned about the recent Amarnath Yatra flap in Kashmir or the controversy over India's nuclear deal with the US or the impact of recent food and energy price increase on Africa's poor, then stay tuned.  There will be stuff on all those things out here.  

Until next time...
