Do you ever just get this feeling at any point in your life when it seems that you are complete, whole and capable enough to cross any rock that comes across? But do you ever get this sense of emptiness, loneliness, and fearfulness at the same time? You just feel perplexed, dull and void at the same moment. The same moment when you felt that you can conquer the whole world, the very same moment it feels as if your wings have been chopped off in a fraction of seconds and you just fall, fall into an abyss of nothingness. During the fall you not only see the world below you which is just waiting for your defeat but a series of emotions engulf you. Everything you have done in your past just flashes in front of your eyes and you just can’t help. Everything seems to be going at a rapid pace and you just can’t cope with that. You try to hold a tighter grip but you fail, fail every time. You just start questioning your abilities, your thoughts, your dreams, your goals and the most important thing..you just question your existence. You question your soul.
Something which was so close to you, something which has been your dream; your goal just appears to be a question mark now. A question which has no answer. A question which has always haunted your soul. A question which is waiting for an answer. A question which can only be answered by you. A question that can completely change you. A question that can make you or break you. The question..”what if?”

A musing by a good friend of mine Simran Manglani (Instagram: @scar_of_the_wind)
A couple of times in my life I have been in life threatening situations. I sometimes wonder if in some other realities I might have died but in this reality I was spared. Maybe there is only one path and I just got lucky....
