I gaze into night sky lit by abundant stars looking back into the cityscape made up by bright neon billboards and headlights of bustling cars, as I saw a large group of people strolling down the streets of NYC
I wondered what stories those people have, just waiting to be told , what life they're living and what situations they're in right now.
unfortunately for me I don't see the point of continuing another chapter of my life, I can't even imagine what a fulfilling and satisfying life feels like.
"I don't see the point anymore, I'm an empty shell by now, I'm devoid of hope and I can't feel anything but despair, I know somehow I'll find my purpose, just not In this life " I uttered with a sad smile as I felt my last tears run down my cheeks
I slowly stepped on the ledge of the building high enough to Killa human
I was scared, I truly am.
I wondered if this is what I really want,
But I can't prolong my life anymore, I've been wanting end it all years ago but they claim it's going to get better, but the only thing they did is make me feel more miserable than I ever was"Goodbye" as I suck up enough courage to-
Out of the blue, i felt something warmth that I haven't felt in age, someone hugging my hips very tightly from behind. The misery I was in just earlier was immediately replaced with intense euphoria, and the amount of relief I felt was perpetual.
"Get back down the ledge, please reconsider what you're doing right now, there's so much to life than this, I promise I'll let you feel what it's like living life to fullest, so I say this one last time, step back down the ledge and trust me" a female voice pleaded
And so I did, I put my leg down the ground and stepped off the ledge, and told the person
"thank you, for letting me know that someone cares" I said smiling to the woman that saved my life from my own despair
"No, I'm the one who should be thanking you, so thank you for trusting me with your life, and I'm very honoured"
We then exchanged numbers and became the best of friends, and I've also received the therapy and rehabilitation that I needed.
the woman I became friends with, also taught me an important lesson, your are not your emotions and you are not your thoughts , so don't let it blind you from the good things and fortune in your life, that way you'll live a fulfilling and prosperous life
