There are voices. There are sounds. There are people speaking all around you. Sometimes relevant, mostly irrelevant. You listen in. You don't have a choice. Sometimes you register, sometimes you don't. And then you try to concentrate on something relevant to you. You read a book or you tune in to some music. You feel better. There are things you feel like running away from and then there are things that attract you. You are jogging in the morning and hear a cuckoo's koo koo. You may like it. But why do you like it? Because its tune to your ears but thats not really pertinent to you. May be you are not that individualistic that you just care about about your material obsessions. May be you FEEL some things.
You have heart to feel and to distinguish between what to listen and what to feel. And so, all looks alright. But sometimes, you may want that same Cuckoo to just shut up. And then, you shout at it or may be, throw a stone at it and scare it. She stops to koo and flies away. And you are back to your own self. Happy or no, you must be unhappy, downcasted by someone or some emotion. And you are back alone. That cuckoo's voice wasn't really a noise but a soothing tune; but that day, you just did not register it. That day, it was just you.You subjugated and wanted to overcome everything around you. In a bid to control and hold back your own emotions, you dared to control others. In that moment, you held yourself supreme and instead of renouncing your own emotions, you went on to hurt others. The rhythmic cuckoo became a black ugly bird for you. Your perspectives changed, narrowing your view. Blinded by your own incapability to assimilate and conform to the circumstances, you just deepened the pit that was dug for you and you fell into it.
Sometimes, It becomes really important that you feel what you must feel and control your mind and force yourself into action. There are situations when the mind just wants to sink itself into a pit hole, making circumstances more difficult. But, you mustn't fly the cuckoos away. There are people in your life that have always mattered to you and will always do. If you let them go, your life may not be the same again.
