The Trash Can of Life first draft
by marcas
Rated: E | Prose | Emotional | #1867605
I would like to see and discuss what emotional content others find in this piece.
Looking through the challenges of life. It
makes you realize what could have been,
and what you could have achieved.

Realization then comes to bare. That each
and every one of us are born with a
disablement of disbelief, destroying the
very essence of our lives.

Engraining low self esteem, low self worth
and hampering our self confidence. Thus
ensuring, that the person we could have
been will never be released, and our dreams
never attained.

Then we find the trash can, shinning and
gleaming, buried in the deepest, darkest
caverns of our lives. Holding the secrets
of our past.

We open the lid slowly with fear and
in-trepidation, to see a mass of entwined
ill thoughts, our under achievements, the
insult of our failings, that have been
en-grained and endorsed deep within our
souls.

We fight daily against the negative persona
that has radiated into our lives. In convinces
us that we are not worth of anything. That
all we do will fail, destroying the heart and
soul, draining the very essence of life of the
person we are.

The lid has been opened many times. Each
time we bury more hurt, more anger, more
frustration, compounding all the pains and
failures of yester year. Never meeting the
expectations of others in there conformity
of life.

The trash can simmers, bubbles and
ferments, encompassing all the anger,
frustration and torments. Seeping like a
corrosive acid of hatred and destruction.
Then like a twisting unstoppable tornado
it explodes, scorching the earth with such
ferocity and force that no one will be able
to comprehend the intensity of the pain.

You are a free person. Your heart, spirit
and mind blow like a gentle summer wind.
Full of warmth, compassion, joy and
happiness. Never settling, always moving,
but never to be seen. Never conforming
and having a free will of its own.

Now take your trash can, empty all your
ill's. Face up to your fears, your pain, and
every destructive and deceptive thought
that has manifested itself through the
condemnation of your soul.

As the trash can hungers for more of your
past, encompass your true life. Bring closure
to the rotting, festering and molding action
of your emotions. Halt the paralyzed state of
confusion, the loading and dumping of all
your past failures.

The trash can will use your thoughts, until
your mind explodes into a million forms of
anguish. Polluting the air with a choking,
stifling venom, that condemns the very
existence of the person you are.

Rise and conquer each hurt, resentment,
slanderous accusation, slanted towards
your life. Face each torment held against
you with the conviction of self belief.
Destroy the fable of "you will never
achieve", and be the person you should be.

Kick, smash, buckle and crush your trash
can. Destroy the garbage of condemnation
that lies deep inside. Destroy the essence
of failure to the fiery furnace of truth.
Release the true spirit of freedom, so that
the lies and injustice can be consigned to
the beyond, never to rise and enslave you
again.

Be like the warrior, rising from the trenches.
Take the battle of life to your adversaries.
Though your frame be bent, twisted and
contorted under the weight of injustice, rise
like the lion, roaring and bellowing. Slashing
and tearing so deep into the deprivation and
despair that once held your mortal being.
Devour the impurities with a cleansed pure
heart, you have so rightly fought for.

Mangle and flatten the trash can for one last
time. So never again can man's lies and
condemnation thwart the dreams of freedom
and achievements that you so rightly deserve.

I have now found my trash can and slowly
faced the misery and torment my adversaries
once held. I have slain the ghosts of the past,
and now stand as tall as a mountain. I fly like
a bird to the highest heights, harnessing the
dreams of a pure heart, forged from the
furnace of truth.

Knowing I have been set free from all my fears,
never to be entrapped or snared with the weight
of despair. My heart has been healed, my spirit
set free. I still carry the scars of war, remembering
the thoughts that once were. I have memories
that will stay, but the poison of injustice has
been removed.

Freedom is now my bond, and truth my light.
Shinning with such intensity. It blinds my
adversaries into confusion. They will never
again be able to thwart the freedom and
achievements that I have now gained.
