***Life without gravity***

***

When I have to talk about Gravity. It is something we never think twice about as we walk around each day. Gravity is that invisible force that keeps us attached to the earth's surface. Without it, we would just float away into outer space!

But what if one morning, gravity stopped working? What if that underlying force holding everything in place suddenly disappeared? This is exactly what happened to me last Tuesday in the most bizarre way,to me it is funny but it is true.

I woke up that day feeling totally normal. I got out of bed and started my usual morning routine. While brushing my teeth, something felt a little off but I could not place it. I got dressed, went downstairs and made some toast for breakfast.

As I was eating my toast and looking out the window, it hit me - something was not right outside. The trees and houses looked really weird and unnatural. Then I realized they were floating!

I did a double-take and almost choked on my toast. Right before my eyes, huge trees, cars, chunks of earth, and even a person were drifting up into the sky! It was as if gravity no longer functioned. Everything was slowly getting lifted upwards.

I was frozen in shock and confusion looking out the window as objects gently rose up like helium balloons. What was going on? This defied all laws of physics and made no sense. But clearly, for some impossible reason, gravity had ceased working!

Suddenly, I felt my feet come off the floor as I began floating too! The lack of gravity was pulling me up towards the ceiling. I failed my arms and kicked my feet but just kept drifting up uncontrollably.

Desperate for something to grab onto, I clutched the countertop with all my might. My body was parallel to the floor floating in midair. Holding the counter was the only thing keeping me from getting sucked up towards space like everything else.

Outside, pandemonium had erupted. People were screaming, cars crashed into trees and buildings sailed upwards. It was mass chaos with things careening through the air as gravity vanished. I clung terrified to the countertop, my only anchor left.

But suddenly, I felt my stomach drop and my full weight returned. I collapsed back onto the floor as gravity inexplicably switched on again. Peering outside, all the objects hurtled back down to earth. Things were hectic but somehow gravity had resumed.

To this day, scientists can not explain what caused that crazy temporary lapse in gravity. For a short while, life turned upside down. Now I'll never take the ground beneath my feet for granted again!

I flipped on the news and saw reports of chaos erupting worldwide from the gravity failure. Airplanes had fallen out of the sky, oceans started levitating, and mountains began uprooting. Global pandemonium ensued.

But about 20 minutes after it started, gravity suddenly kicked back in. Everything plunged rapidly back down to earth. What went up was now coming down hard.

News anchors described scenes of crushed buildings, massive floods, and stranded people around the world from the gravitational collapse. Emergency responders rushed to dig out debris and rescue survivors.

Scientists held urgent meetings to analyze the unprecedented event. Some theorized a disruption in the Earth's magnetic field caused gravity to glitch. Others suspected sabotage from terrorists or a foreign nation's experiments. No explanation made sense.

In the following weeks, cleanup efforts gradually restored order after the inexplicable gravity failure wreaked havoc. It was estimated to be the costliest disaster in human history, exceeding any earthquake, hurricane or war.

But without a clear cause identified, the big question remained – could it happen again at any moment? I became uneasy walking under trees or around tall structures, fearful gravity might abandon us once more.

In the months that followed, my unease abated somewhat. But I never looked at the world the same after witnessing such a fundamental force of nature inexplicably suspend itself that crazy morning. We truly take gravity for granted.

Though life resumed normalcy, an undercurrent of uncertainty lingered in many minds. We realized how instantly helpless we could become if the universal glue holding reality together came unstuck. Everything hung in the balance.
