I feel older.....

Seems like an era has passed by.....really.....feels like I have grown up by another 2 years or so. Some occurrences in life make you feel this way.

On August 6th, I got a call, not knowing that life has some unpleasant surprises in store for me. The call left me shocked and worried.....in fact the thoughts that were going on in my mind were completely different.....I suddenly realised I never used to think this way. Of course, this kind of uncertainty happened to me for the first time.

The call actually decided my next course of action, not just for that moment or day, but for my entire life.....for the moment I just rushed to take a train, it was about 2.30 in the afternoon, the train was not very crowded....I cornered myself on a seat and let my thought horses run.....this 50 minute journey was the longest I have ever traveled. My mind took me to the most dreadful and worst possibilities in life.....it usually happens, whenever there's a crisis the mind tends to visualise negative consequences first and my mind too followed suite.

Believe it or not, but i travelled about 40 years ahead of life just to realise how serious things were going to get. On reaching my destination, the sight was all the more frightening....
