For six years, Pratik Joshi lived alone in London, working tirelessly in software development and holding onto one unwavering dream: to bring his wife and three young children from India to join him—to build a new life, together.
Back in Udaipur, his wife, Dr. Komi Vyas—a respected physician—shared that dream. Two days ago, she resigned from her job. Their bags were packed. Their home was locked up. Farewells were exchanged with teary-eyed relatives. Everything was ready.
This morning, hearts full of hope and eyes gleaming with excitement, the Joshi family boarded Air India Flight 171 to London. They snapped a selfie onboard—a memory in the making—and sent it to loved ones. It was meant to mark the beginning of a new chapter.
But the story ended before it began.
The plane crashed. No one survived.
In the span of moments, an entire universe of dreams was extinguished. A family’s future vanished. And the world was left with one chilling reminder: life is unbearably fragile.
So don’t wait. Don’t postpone love, laughter, or joy for some distant “someday.”
Live now. Love now. Tomorrow isn’t promised.
