Scholars and scientists have vigorously studied these strange phenomena, which is better known as “the call of the void”, or, l’appel du vide (as coined by the French). Some call it a death wish, but the French expression for that brief moment when we consider succumbing to the ‘lure of the siren song’ — l’appel du vide (which references the swelling desire to suddenly swerve onto the wrong side of the road while driving, or to poke our toes out over the edge of a cliff) — is far more fitting. Maybe we become ‘seduced’ by the possibilities that certain uncertainty holds… Or, perhaps, we just crave the freedom to make our own choices. Or, alternatively, we’ve all just gone outright mad. So… what’s your “void”?
