The Trash Can of Life first draft
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. |
