One in a Million?

In the last few months, I have been to different hospitals and specialists for multiple procedures and lab works. Honestly speaking, it has been exhausting and nerve wrecking. Even though, the strenuous procedures didn’t come as a full surprise to me. Nevertheless it has been physically and emotionally tolling. I say it has not been a surprise, because 3 years ago I was officially diagnosed with a rare condition and that too in the nick of time. I say rare, because statistically it happens to one in a million...duh...of-course I am one of a kind (if you already didn’t know that). 😜

I have been kind of house arrest for almost a month now...it’s depressing for someone like me. Until now, I never said this out loud- why I crave adventures, but it’s time I embrace my reality bravely. I love to travel and the main reason is because I am scared.

Yes, it’s fear that makes me travel. I am absolutely terrified that life can change right in-front of my eyes. Many of us have seen it happen to our loved ones. We never know when our time will be up.

I can’t imagine anything worse than thinking about missed opportunities, places I should have gone to, hobbies I should have pursued and adventures I wish I had. It’s not just about traveling, it’s everything. I want to read all the books, try all the foods, have a job that challenges me, meet all the people and watch all the films. And, of course, travel to ALL THE PLACES.

I only get one life. One beautiful but short life and it’s such a cliché to say this but this isn’t the dress rehearsal, this is the real deal and I will only be able to do this once. I have got one chance to do everything and I want to do it ALL!
