You wake up to a new day and everything is upside down. Whaaat! Why is the fan below and floor up? Where am I? Is this for real or am I still dreaming?

I get out of my bed and find no sockets to plug in the charger. How do I do it now? My phone is about to die. The situation is already weird and now my phone..Oh god!

I call out mom and dad for help and to understand the event but they did not respond to my numerous and repeated call outs.

As every time I look up, it scares me what if somethings falls on me! the kitchen has gone up, where is water? How will I make myself a cup of coffee, may be coffee could fix all this mess but all in vain.

With a lot of courage I step towards the window to see what is the scenario outside or its just in my home but the reality had hit me too hard and as much of the world my eyes could catch, everything was topsy turvy.

We are already in lockdown due to covid and now this has hit us, what exactly God has in store for us!

Parents came back and shared their bag of struggles while shopping the groceries. All the salesmen were on the ladders and stools to fetch the desired products. I could not stop laughing.

Hence, drained by all this, we decided to get our meals for the day from our favorite Chinese restaurant Bercos. Now comes the twist, the delivery boy was on the floor i.e. upwards..haha

We gotta find a way out!

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” ―Nelson Mandela

I racked my brains and used a power bank to charge my phone.You place the highest ladder or stool and take the delivery from the boy. Since it is the era of digitalization, hence made the payment online.

Trust me, it was altogether a surreal experience to eat in the balcony with the extraordinary view of topsy-turvy world.

The unpredictable day ended finally and before I tucked myself into my bed to call it a day, I prayed to God to make everything normal and just like other days, this world is too hard to survive.

Let us pray together!

And just the very moment, my alarm rang and woke me up from this surreal dream looking around again and again to check is this now its the reality or that was!!
