Uncertainity

I don't know. It's a weird feeling. Something which is similar to a depression, but very subtle. Something hard to explain, but experienced by all. I can say that because of my instincts. I feel this a phase which everyone in their 20's would have gone through. You can call it a quarter life crisis, mid-life crisis or an existential crisis. Names are many but I feel the state is the same. The state of uncertainty. Simply put, a phase a where you don't know what you are doing.

There are many movies on it. millions of articles about it online, but none with a simple solution. Eventually it is about you and only you. If you can crack what the great puzzle of life is then you have found peace in life. If you haven't then you are desperate. Desperate to know what it is all about. Why are we alive? What are we doing? Where are we going? What should we do? There are a bunch  of such questions which keep pestering you. Knocking on your soul every now then trying to grab your attention.

But they are just a manifestation of your anxiety. The earlier you heed to these calls the earlier you crack the puzzle, hence the earlier you find peace. But it has not been easy for me though. As I said earlier, everything seems to involve uncertainty.

Sometimes I feel uncertainty is a great feeling, because there is nothing much to expect of it. But is it?

Am I just new to the line or waiting in an adjacent one? I don't know

But amidst all this there is one thing I am sure of

That I am 'uncertain'.
