Kammys Musing

• Every now and then, just out of the blue, a weird feeling of impending doom would come and hit me.
• You feel like something bad is going to happen, your heart and chest feels like a few sizes smaller, you feel like crying but the best is you get watery eyes.
• All these without any particular reason. It could hit me anytime of the day.
• My default action – I would pickup the phone and call my mum, 4,000 kilometers away.
• Majority, if not all of the time – nothing significant actually happened.
• I would usually called my mum during her afternoon nap, or she was just keeping busy around the house. Hearing her voice is like a cold fizzy drink on a hot day – cool, refreshing, instantly lifts you up.
• And then I would ring my wife. She’s usually at work so I usually keep it short and simple.
• Since my mum passed away last year, I cant remember the last time I had this dreaded feeling.
• Maybe it was a sign before, to remind me how fleeting this life is. I may never know.
• “Every soul will taste death”.

Until then, stay hungry, stay safe.
