Have you ever felt as if you were dangling on the cliff, holding on to a little tree branch as you try to struggle your way back up to safety, praying hard that you do not plunge down to the waters some 1000 feet below?
Have you ever felt as if you were in a sealed room, with no visible means of escape and the level of oxygen in the room is depleting with each breath you inhale? The cold sweat and shivers down your spine, the panic attack, the suffocation as oxygen supply to your heart decreases – can you even imagine how it feels like?
I have! No, not physically, of course! (that’s why the question was have you ever felt AS IF…) What I mean here is mentally.
There are times in life when I feel just helpless.. as if dangling at the edge of a cliff, holding on to my life on a tiny little branch as I struggle to push myself up to safe ground lest the little branch breaks and sends me down however far beneath to the vast waters. There are time when I feel really REALLY tired of pulling myself up and imagined myself “letting go” as it were. Some may think of it as pure stupidity. But really, you’d come to a point and think, “Is this really worth my effort?” Till now I have not found my answer.
