Afraid to Feel

The planet was dark and grey and a cloud of polluted smoke hung all around it..
The planet consisted of a lot of tiny people whom believed that living was when they were doing everything that their society told them to do.
None of them were reaching out and taking hold of the opportunities in front of them ..
Anybody would think these little people liked being poor and unhappy.

Truth is...
Your only reading this to feel the emotions that you would if you were the person in question.... Looking down on the planet. Right?.

Pretend you are watching a film..
when watching this film your surprised when you see a doctor prescribe a man anti depressants and everyone else in the film around the man that knew him, knew that the tablets wouldn’t do him any good ...yet they stand by and don’t realise that they need to do something about it for it to ever change .. Because they all know that the man isnt going to be able to stop taking this addictive drug on his own. But your watching the film so you wonder how come i realise and the people in the film dont?

When it was a film you easily realised everything that was going on at the time because you focused and wanted to hear the story....
but whens its your life in front of you and not a tv screen you fail to do the same?

Theres been so many films and story’s about people going into comas and over dosing because of taking stuff their body doesn’t need...
while being led to believe they were going to feel better?
by a person thats encouraging them to put un-natural sources into their body ...

theres a lot of things each of us haven’t done.
So when something new happens you deal with it the best way you know how to...
because you had seen it happen in movies or heard about it when reading a story.

It sounds so easy to see do you not agree...
when your watching the film your yelling at the screen ...why doesn’t somebody stop them?

But when its your life you dont focus on the matters all around you. And you limit yourself to one thought at a time.

For you..your just watching a film. ..Your looking at it as if its not real because it surrounds them and not you yet ..

Me, and everyone else including you  “ want ” to feel all of the types of emotions that the actor would feel if this movie or story was real..

When you get into the film you can sometimes actually feel for the person and share their emotions.

You should have now realised that you were actually feeling those emotions and got threw them when watching the film...

Which leads me to say that you better believe that It doesn’t kill you to use emotion.

If you watch a film about people killing and people cheating and wonder gosh, what a bad world to be in..
Then how do you feel when you know it IS real and that everything is possible?..
there is actually people killing in this world and the mafia gangs are on every street.....

People are disbelieving everything the paper tells them, and everything that the tv “ allows ” them
Making out its not real its just some made up story..
But nobody can ever explain where the story’s come from and what sparked that very story’s idea.
if nobody on this earth had experienced the story that you are being told ... Then you tell me where that idea came from.

Story’s and happenings get passed around and spoke about like a game of Chinese whispers.
( the idea for the game Chinese whispers no doubt was the first human to realise this )
People from all over the world will add a little to each on its way to the top before people would view it  ..

Where do the ideas come from.. people that come up with these life  story’s .. What sparks the idea in the head of the director that the world comes to an end because of the planet going to ruin ...  Or the idea of gangs of people fighting,
and young girls dieting to look good & end dying threw lack of nutrition ..
Now that would make a sad film right? No. That makes a sad life when you realise its all real.
Its just another persons story being told.......

Now theres smoking ..
cutting down oxygen.
Releasing all kinds of chemicals into the air... effecting our climate.
Everyones driving...
Everyone is building and burning fires ..
yet we expect the world to keep thriving?
and now that it isn’t, everyone is surprised??

We are not truly watching or experiencing anything that is going on around us, for example;

( you ) are male, or female ..
Your watching a film and the film plays a part where the male or the female is boxing..
you automatically picture yourself as the corresponding sex and force yourself to feel their emotions.

You want to feel the rush, the pain and the thrill of whats going on because you love it! Weather its bad or good you are still happy just to feel any emotion the film is giving off...

if its love that you want you try your hardest to imagine your self as the one in the film thats “ being ” loved....
And you can relate and feel how she or he does when they are happy together and doing whatever it is that the film consists of.

You just forget for an hour or two that you even have life.
You are just fascinated and glued to the “ story ” put in front of you and at the time of watching you dont doubt that its wrong or “fake”,
you just listen and watch and put yourself in their shoes.

.. But when you do glance back to your own life and think,
well that film was crazy.
You start again to disbelieve that it was real and you didn’t “really” feel or go threw anything that the actor felt or went threw them selfs?.

When your body 100% ( DID ) go threw those emotions with the main actor you were focused on at the time cause when they cried you cried cause you could feel exactly why because you put yourself in their shoes...

Say you were to dream up your movie just for fun. . .
But it was still YOUR life nothing had changed ....
YOU and everybody you know was still in it and everything was exactly the same to start off with .....

And this dream you feel all of the same emotions that you feel when you are awake ...
Because you believe the dream is real at that moment in time..

Then i guess your body and your mind is actually 100% really feeling those emotions .. Even though its just a dream.

But if you can dream a dream,
and it feels real because while you were in that dream you DID actually deal with and feel the rush and the thrill of doing anything you chose your dream to consist of ...

Then what leads many of us to believe that we cant handle those emotions in “ life ”?

Unless you stop being afraid to feel...
and experience whats real ..
then you will never feel the happiness that this life has to offer you.

picture yourself looking down at earth from space.
When i did it myself i thought of the first thing you read which was this....

“ THIS planet ”
IS dark and grey.
A cloud of polluted smoke hangs all around it.
This planet consists of a lot of us tiny people whom believe that living is when we were doing everything that OUR society tells us to.
None of us are reaching out and taking hold of the opportunities that ARE right in front of us .
Anybody would think that us people actually enjoyed being poor and unhappy .. Infact anyone would think that  we were simply afraid to feel ...
