Chapter One

Turbulent Times

In the midst of uncertainty and turbulent times, I will still trust and depend on you, my God, for I am a frail and helpless creature. The prevailing situation here is quite unpredictable. Everything around here is chaotic and disturbing. I am like a confused man who has just stirred up from a deep lethargy. Nobody knows what is happening here.

Everybody seems to be confused and undependable either in terms of their words or deeds. The world is now running wild and life is fully packed with a lot of madness from different calibers of people. Woe unto the affluent class of this present age. Woe unto the elite class of our time.

An energetic gentleman dies in lodging because of overdosing a sex boosting chemical. His organ remains stiff even after his death as his lover flees hurriedly from their love making hideout.

Surely, the reports which I have been getting of late are disturbing and heart shattering. I wonder what has gone amiss with the people who live in this world these days. After all, who cares? There is a lot of unwelcome drama at the stage, on the scene of life.

The mass media has been a credible watchdog in terms of illuminating different occurrences in
