You know when I look up at the sky
I think of you
When I walk on the ground
I think of you
You know when I am afraid of death
I think of you
When I feel courageous to conquer life
I think of you
You know when I’m lonely
I think of you
When I have a room full of friends
I think of you
You know when I have won in life
I think of you
When I have conquered myself
I still think of you

I’m listening to this beautiful song
Don’t know what she’s thinking
Don’t know how she feels about me
Don’t know if we’ll ever be together
I’m listening to this beautiful song
Don’t know if I should ask her
Don’t know if I should ask her about us
Don’t know if I should ask her about our future
I’m listening to this beautiful song
Don’t know if we should stay friends
Don’t know if our destinies are intertwined
Don’t know if we are meant for each other
I’m listening to this beautiful song
Don’t know if I should write poems anymore
Don’t know if she’ll understand me
Don’t know if God exists
I’m listening to this beautiful song
Don’t know if…
Don’t know how to feel
Don’t know how to not listen to this beautiful song

Create an emergency preparedness plan.
Well I already feel anxious after reading this prompt…
And I feel like I don’t want to think about it.
All I want to do is avoid making this plan even though I know that making a plan is important.
Because I feel anxious and I want to stop feeling anxious.
But jokes aside, here’s my perfect plan-
Maybe this is not the most perfect plan but it is a plan.
Many people won’t even make a plan.
But I did.
And regarding the last point “And at the same time stay sane”, it should come on top because without a calm mind you will make deadly mistakes.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, most people suffered a lot due to improper planning.
And many didn’t even have a plan.
And again regarding the staying sane part, I have anxiety and bipolar disorder and personality disorders.
And I got discharged from NIMHANS, which is the most reputed mental health hospital in Asia, my family was able to sustain me and themselves because we had a plan.
I stayed in NIMHANS for 3.5months approx.
And I feel we were lucky to have a plan.
So this is my perfect emergency preparedness plan with an imperfect sequence of activities and a somewhat informal writing style.
Thanks for reading this line. It means a lot!☺️
