THE ANGRY MOB AND THE SITTING DUCKS PHENOMEON

Have you ever felt that burning rage in your stomach that makes you wish you could get away with just one murder? It feels like someone poured molten iron somewhere deep inside you and you would just want that one outlet to end it all. What if the fulcrum of that hot, burning rage was directed towards you? What if you realize that the only reason for your misery is you? Not a very good thought, is it? About seven months back I took a wrong turn on the path of life and have been stuck in a miserable state ever since. It is one of those situations where one bad decision only leads to several others and eventually, you end up in a ditch.

The darkness I feel refuses to go away. Time and again there shines a ray of hope somewhere above me and as I leap to catch it, I realize its just a mirage. My search for substantial resources ends solemnly disposed. I hate being where I am right now and I have little to do except blame my parents and circumstances for the results. Thing is, I m confused. There's no clear path and only muddy waters and misty fields from where I m looking right now. The flip-side of being a high-flying achiever is that the pain of crashing down is just as severe and there's no one to save you as it is lonely at the top. 

When you are at the top of your game, turning every opportunity into success, there's little doubt in your mind that life will always be the same and that no matter what, you shall always emerge victorious. During the spring of our good fortune, we forget that no winter lasts forever and no spring is eternal. There's always a promise of a golden tomorrow- a promise just waiting to be broken. Dreams come crashing down in the blink of an eye and all that remains is the tearing sorrow of yet another unfulfilled desire.
