What are we here for...

She lay there, with almost a dozen people surrounding her, now what was just a body. It would not have taken even a second of pain before she breathed her last. What happened? How did it happen? Why did it happen? All these questions kept popping up my mind while I stood next to her body. In just a second’s time she was gone, her existence was now just a memory. She was past tense now! This was Chetana Solanki. While I stood there staring at her body what came to my mind was the only question of our existence. What are we doing here? What would Chetana’s Family be doing right now? How will they react when they hear the news? How many people would be waiting for her to get back home? What had she achieved in her life and where did she fail? What were her aspirations? What were her strengths and weaknesses? Where did all these go? Will they all be buried with her?
What are we living for and what are we leaving behind when we go? Where are we heading? What is life after all?
We come, enter the rat race to achieve, we want to make a mark, we want fame, and we want everything! The moment we are gone, how much does it all really matter? Why do we have this life after all?
The answers to these questions are unachievable but still we are in hunt of it.
Chetana Solanki is nothing of herself. She is just a name now!
