Mental Chains of Oppression
A few hours from now, I will be exhausted. There are not enough minutes or seconds in the day to stimulate ambition and dare I say motivation. Being trapped in the system has made me lose some of the incentive to reach my fullest potential. Even though, drudgery’s exhaustion has left me weak and weary, I try to push on and remember the lessons learned not so long ago. There are some difficulties and a few obstacles are mounting. But I press on.
Rhythm and rhyme I master sometimes. The wheels begin to turn and the aspiration starts to show. But in the back of my mind: work demands attention to the house, the kids, the car and everything else in between. Responsibilities can slow down the process of achievement. The clock is winding down the twilight hour and soon the alarm will ring on yet another routine day. All thoughts of lounging ‘til your heart is content are quickly dwindling away.
Suddenly horrible thoughts surface and increase growing interference. Questions:
WHO are you to think you are ANYone to break these chains of mental oppression?
WHAT is your impacting purpose?
WHEN is the time going come, when oh when?
WHERE do you think your going in Life if you continue to pursue dreams?
And lastly not,
WHY are you special and unique to BELIEVE in yourself?
And that is when a reality of a different kind intervenes. A proclamation if you will:
I don’t want to work for the house, the kids, the car and everyone else in between. If I have to work let it be for the protection that helps me maintain the harmony of the kids, the house and the luxuries of comfortable surroundings.
Tolerance is below the normal level. I can’t take it anymore.
Can’t take working for a faceless entity.
Don’t want to continue fattening the pockets of the majority stockholders.
Won’t stay still while the enjoyments of destiny speeds on Life Highway, only exited by a few.
There are rules missing here in this scenario. SO I’m going to make it up as I go along.
If I embrace the basic feeling it can’t go wrong.
I’m working hard at everything I do, pressing onward to pass broken spirits.
Someday, and please make it soon, I confidently profess humbled deeds.
So I’ll just use the system for its purpose: to move right through it like a king on his throne.
I put faith in awareness’ hand to guide the path to break these chains of mental oppression.
I will try not to rush when impatience makes its stand.
Never will I stop accessing lessons.
I will try not to dismiss opportunity when fear sets in.
Never will I believe in nay says when there is no offer of proof.
IF I am intent on ¾ more effort then the system took to shackle me, the possibilities began to grow on ways to destroy this mental chains of oppression.
The body is heavy from exhaustion but the mind is free and happily wondering through natural dreams.
