"And then... There was light.... " But...
what if that light just diminishes forever ?
Never have i felt so realistically, how inseparable our life is from electricity.
Having suffered a electrical cut last night, due to some works, my apartment was pitch black when i returned late at night. Luckily, the power was cut barely after i stepped out of the lift. (luckily it wasnt cut BEFORE nor WHILE i took the lift.)
Groping around in the darkness, i could only rely on the gleaming weak glow of the street lights below, and the moonlight of the december night. It was then, i realised there was nothing i could do , while the night was still young. There were reports waiting to be done, emails waiting to be replied to, hot baths needed to be taken, TV shows to be watched... etc...etc... Fortunately, the supply in my laptop was still sufficient to last me 45 minutes. So i had to depend on my laptop for my MIS report as well as for light, while i read the text from the whitish blue glow of my Laptop.
Never have i realised how important electricity was to me. I suppose i shall stop taking it for granted. Though i have to admit, its hard to stay grateful to something I cannot materialise nor see usually. Sounds a little like God himself, huh ?
P>S> i'm not blasphemious. I'm a devout buddhist myself...
