I know you've felt that feeling, that internal ache to cry.
The need is strong, pulling at every fiber of your being.
Why can’t I release this quivering beast from my body?
At what point did I become hardened to a basic human response to disappear?
Wait.
Leave crying on the shelf for a moment.
When was the last time I laughed?
You know, that belly cramping, eyes watering, squawk that defines a lasting golden memory.
Wait.
What about the last time I felt wanted by another being?
Truly, wanted in the most primitive sense.
So, at what point do we allow ourselves to self abuse to the point of emotional numbing?
No, human should simply wake-up, eat, work, socialize, have sex, sleep, and still be incapable of crying.
This is shallow living. We must feel deeply beyond basic human necessities like hunger or exhaustion.
How do we defrost this frozen soul within or busy shell?
Simple, choose to walk towards the sun instead of along side it.
Everyone’s sun is different, for some it’s adventure or adrenaline.
For others is meditative silence.
This rat race of a life can be nauseating.
So, step off, locate the sun, and defrost.
You’ve only got a 100 years to live.
