Everyday with Afrin

  Forgetfulness. Hmm, this might not sound as polished as my previous blogs, but honestly, this was a thought that popped out of nowhere at around 11 AM.(5 days ago) Tbh, I was flabbergasted by the number of thoughts running through my head. OMG, I couldn't even remember everything! Honestly, it felt like I'd opened 30 Chrome tabs on a laptop with 2 GB of RAM. I was literally bugging and glitching. One thought suddenly opens, and then it closes. Another one opens, and that closes too. Oh my my! Thirty minutes of straight-up chaos.

Earlier, I had been looking at a quote about destiny. (The one in my bio. :)) But something unexpected happened. As I picked up my phone, I came across a story posted by a brother of mine. It was about one of his friends who had passed away. I asked him what had happened, and it turned out to be an accident. And suddenly, a big "WHAT IF?" popped into my mind. What if I'm no more tomorrow? There were times when I used to complain about my life, even to myself. Sometimes, I deliberately isolated myself, pretending that being alone was all I needed. We all have those moments, don't we? Mom...
