Hello Friends, After many years I decided to use my fountain pen again, so I bought two ink bottles from Bril (Royal blue & Violet) and started writing few lines. U must be wondering as to "What's so special about writing with fountain pen that made me write a new post on my blog after years of silence?" Its just my belief that "If u will not enjoy writing ur words (thoughts), then seldom anybody else with enjoy them reading." I agree that ball pens and gel pens gives us wings, we can write at our top speeds, but somehow I'm an old school... I still luv to write with fountain pen, slowly, enjoying the smooth creation of words as the nib goes up/down left and right. Honestly I had only spend around 16mins till now writing, but I assure u all that: I really enjoyed every minute as the nib of my pen glided on the paper... leaving lines of ink creating words.

What do u know about this word “Ebola”? Some know it as a disease which killed 1000s in Africa, some with better information said it’s a virus due to which a person die with high fever. What else? From past few days I was feeling very uneasy about this thought, and so I'm sharing this all with u. I’ll tell u why I’m putting my time writing about Ebola. In this age of Internet u need not bang ur head to search for any information, but those who are not able to be online are the one who really needs to be informed. I’m sharing this in an effort to help all those by giving u this information so that u can share it with confidence.
