Do you know what is an island?  It's a small piece of land in the middle of the sea, surrounded by water.  Just like the location of "Lost".

Do you know what is the feeling of staying in an island?  Desperate, helpless, lonely, boring ... just like "Lost".

Today I felt that I'm in an island.  I felt desperate and helpless as there is no support around me.  Work rushed to me like sea water which almost killed me.

The only way out is to swim across the sea - that is in my case, to finish all the work.  But you know what, the result of swimming across the sea is always drowning to dead.  So you see I'm 90% dead and in critical situation now.
