It was 24th March, 2015. It was the day of "avalon". The place where I come from we do this little ritual of burning a flame on an ancestral lamp. So I was asked to do the ritual as I was the youngest one in the family. After lighting the lamp, I sat there for a moment in peace and calm.

I remember I have always been attracted to fire since I was a kid. And I had noticed that no matter how much I played with fire (in the literal sense) it never hurt me.

So when I opened my eyes, the fire was right in front of me. I felt absolute calm wash over me as I saw the flame rising and lowering, yellow, orange and red..... Beautiful isn't it? I wondered.

Subconsciously I began thinking of the directions I wanted the fire to flow in... And after quite some time I realised that the fire did move according my thoughts. It wasn't like I could control fire, no, fire is supreme, All consuming. I just felt like I could bend it to an extent. Though unluckily, as soon as the Realisation of what I was doing hit me, I lost my calm of mind and consequently the balance of the element.

I felt inclined to do some research and there on 24th March 2015 began another chapter of my life....
