When The Lights Are Out...

I lay here deep in my thoughts, one thought clings at the edge of my mind and I just can't seem to shush it away;
Delve in deeper it called, it seemed too vivid as I stepped in what seemed like a brain bingo game;
The winning word was DEJAVU, I shouted with much enthusiasm BINGO;
Now I had won, it was time to dissect and explore;
Suddenly it fed into a monologue...
Left Brain: It's crazy how we are unique in our similarity. Some are poor, some are rich.
Right Brain: Some are realist, some are creative.
Both: Surrounded by things that make us better and things that make us hurt. A moment of bliss when all come to sync (fading voice) A rare moment we yearn... Heart and head, logic and emotions, love and hate. You can't control how people receive your energy. Just because you're breaking your back, cracking your head or pouring your heart; you can't control how people receive your energy. Of course, you will be giving it your all but remember no one owes you anything. Once you embrace that you will understand how we're unique in similarities.
If we're being honest, never can we all have the same energy, not at the same, we must say. It's a give or take affair. We've different ways of doing the same things. Some are hanging by a string, some are on a 100. At the end of the day, everyone sleeps. Some noonday is brighter, its darkness is like morning or vice versa. It's crazy but all people sleep, even the ones we'll never know. Some on beds, some on the floor, some under the full glow of the stars. Don't expect a super-hero in a flawed human being. Don't be hard on people around you or have out of this world expectations. It will save you a lot of meltdowns and heartaches.
When you smile, the world becomes a better place!
Not being able to control how people receive your energy or how they respond to it is such an important life lesson to learn. This was so interesting and thought-provoking to read!
ReplyDeleteThank you Molly for youe feedback. I'm glad there was lesson in there🌻😊
DeleteThank you Justyn, I'm glad my article was helpful😊
ReplyDeleteA really interesting read. I think the message that we're all different and built on different is so important. I always try to react to things I don't understand by trying to put myself in the other person's place. It's so hard to know what someone's going/gone through so we shouldn't judge someone on surface level interactions. Lovely post, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat's so true, you need to understand people's situations before you react. Thank you for your feedback.
DeleteI love this part of the poem the most: “Surrounded by things that make us better and things that make us hurt“ I haven’t thought of the brain that way but it is exactly right. Great post!
ReplyDeleteThank you I appreciate the read and feedback 🌻❤
DeleteIf everyone would just let the next person be while being true to ourselves, the world would be such a better place. Thank you for this post.
ReplyDeleteTrue we all need to be ourselves. Thank you for the feedback 🌻
DeleteOMG! I love how this is so well written. My mind can be a warzone sometimes and other times, it just calmly kills me and somehow revives me again. Thanks for this!
ReplyDeleteI totally understand there's always a lot going on up there. Thank you for your feedback 🌻
