INSTINCTS

Okay, So a mother says to a child,

"Why are you doing that honey?", and the child responds,

"Hmmmm I don't know... It feels good".

And again, the child is playing, and a man says to the child,

"Why on earth are you doing that you crazy child".
The child looks up to the man in dismissive shock and says,

" Because it is Fun!"
 WHY ELSE WOULD WE DO ANYTHING? ADULTS SERIOUSLY? WHERE ARE YOU? Where have we lost ourselves to?

A child is now on a bus, and a man gets on. The child shivers and grips on to his mother; hides his head,

"Mummmm I don't like that man, get him away".

Back at home the neighbours are arguing about a nonsensical matter, the child curls up into a ball and starts whimpering,

"The way they are yelling hurts, it feels so yucky."

THE WAY THIS CHILD IS EXPERIENCING THE WORLD IS HOW "WE" EXPERIENCE THIS WORLD!!!!! We have just been desensitised by fear, numbness and the forgetfullness of what it really feels like to have free fun and genuinely feel good.

Our discernment between good feelings and bad feelings are so distorted and are instincts are wounded by rationalisation and self preservation. Not realising that it is our INSTINCTS that are SELF PRESERVING!!!

Remembering your feelings,

Act on your instincts; do not hide from your tears or distress.

And when that man on the bus comes on who gives you the shivers, trust it and get off!

You might just save your own life!!

LOVE AND LIVE REAL SUPER HEROES.
