Darkness everywhere

India

You are alone in your house when suddenly power line goes off! You have no other facility such as emergency lamp, generator, torch light, candle, cigarette or gas lighter and even match sticks also got exhausted! You want to go out of the house and find darkness everywhere outside, with no people on the road! In such a situation, what you will do? What will be your reaction? Be afraid, sitting in the house, cursing power centre? If you are already allergic to darkness?

hi dear snakequeen . you are from india and many people in india do not get power for weeks together! they are used to this kind of situation where others may be afraid of their own rope and mistake it as a snake. the light from the moon and the stars guides them and they are capable of finding out their routes in darkness. imagine a situation the ship is moving and in deep waters . are there roads or the street lights , how they trace their route? and reach their destination? and if i am in this situation i will definitely remember you and your great question!!!

First, I'd never be in that situation because we keep several flashlights, 2 battery powered lanterns, and 2 oil lamps on hand for emergencies that never happen. Since you have presented the supposition that such an emergency would occur, I'd do the same thing that I do in all emergencies, large or small. I'd pray for strength to weather the emergency.

Had that very thing happen about 3 weeks ago. A 7 or 8 fot black snake got fried at a substation. I just grabbed my flashlight and waited for the power to come back on.
