Everyday Life - A friend's Story - Change that's the point


One question rise to your mind any time you wake up early in the morning to go to your work. The rise of this question has nothing to do with the sunrise simply because usually, you wake up before the sun does it. You are on the street, sharing some morning thoughts with the same people you meet at the bus station, every morning the same thoughts such as the same typical "good morning" or just "morning" because sometimes you swallow the word "good", especially when you pick some internal crisis of honesty instead of the usual social profile of the moderated worker. During this waiting for the bus process, the question raised just after you opened your eyes, half an hour ago, is sleeping. And you, your eyes are open but you are almost sleeping, your mind is sleeping, at least you are not there, in the bus station, you sleep upright, you don't even hear what others say around you, you just sleep... And then, that awful voice, somebody behind you talking loud, and you wake up. The question is still sleeping in your mind while you hear the guy behind you saying: "There is a planned implementation which is expected to become a milestone in the history of our company. It will contribute decisively to our international competitiveness and it promises great future development!" What is he talking about? you think spontaneously, what a hell is this talk so early in the morning, is he some psycho, some sick dude talking like a CEO talks to his subjects? you cannot see him, he is just behind you and you don't want to turn, you just want he shuts up! Then somebody else answers: "Oh, you know these practices bring back some bitter memories. Last time our company planned an implementation there were some hundreds of workers sent to their homes, I'm worried that this time we'll be throwing us out." And the guy with the loud voice replies instantly: "No, no, I 'm sure they will raise our salaries, I 'm sure about that, so I invite you for a barbecue next weekend to celebrate it!" And the bus is still not coming, and you start to feel a headache attacking you and you pray for the bus to come. Then someone beside you is asking for a cigarette. You shake your head negatively, you smoke but you do not have cigarettes, or you probably have two to smoke them with coffee in the company's canteen. Cigarettes have become very expensive lately, The latest cuts in your salary do not allow you to share either one of your cigarettes. And if the changes that the guy behind you talked about are really on the road to their application, then you can lose your job... That's it, you say to yourself, and you feel the panic crisis to overwhelm you. Your breath is cut off, almost like your salary was cut. You feel shit! You sweat while it's rather a chilly morning. And then you try to control your messy thoughts, you feel that your revolted imagination needs to be taken down a peg or two, and you impose your rule to your panicked alter-ego. You look around, there are more and more people coming, the bus station is now crowded, and the holy bus is still not there. Somebody pushes you, one other fails to walk over you, and now you start to feel angry for the first time since you woke up. And the sleeping question that you don't dare to wake up suddenly surges in your mind! You can face it now, you might give an answer to yourself and get rid of the annoying question! Why you woke up this morning? Why you do the same for years now? And the typical answer is there as always: I must go to work, that's all folks, you answer immediately to yourself, as you answer at any time this question attacks you. Yes, but this time the typical answer is not enough. The question is still in your mind, stronger than ever and you are no more able to defeat it. An army of potential answers is gathering in your mind on fire, you have to choose some. And suddenly, there is no more question to answer, and all answers are invalid, and there is just the instinctive need to consider the reality, an impulsion coming from the most unexplored inner world of yours, an order dictating to stare the raw reality! And, the reality is... that you are staying there, waiting for a fuckin bus which will bring you to a fuckin factory where you spend your precious life, working essentially for a fuckin boss who pays you just for badly survive... This is the raw reality and that human is you the useful stupid who endorse it by following every day the rules imposed by others, by these people who create and control your needs! Bitter reality, but for the first time after so many years, it might help you to think clearly. It's the moment that you see the sun rising slowly, the mist is dissipated, people around you simply don't exist anymore, it's only you and your thoughts left in the middle of the reality's land. And, like talking loud to yourself you scream:
My work is pointless and it bugs me!
And you start to walk, back to your home, and the people around you, all this crowd coming to the bus station means nothing for you, you are not part of them anymore, you are somebody else, you are a tired human who needs to take a nap and dream of his real life. You walk to your home and you feel so different, you are not afraid of the tomorrow, there is no tomorrow, there is only now, this moment of this crucial decision which will give birth to the all-new tomorrow, whatever it will be... You change in every step, you take your real life in your hands and you claim your freedom of being and thinking for your good. It's the beginning and there will be no end until you are fired from this dimension of life, from the real Big Boss. When you are in front of your home you hear the bus coming and the noisy crowd at the bus station. You smile and get into your home. Next station: your bed! You change, that's the point! Have a nice day and sleep!!!
👉No need to be a Renaissance man in order to be the artist of your Life. You need just a Change! That's the point! 👈
For the history, my friend has been fired, he has never worked in any factory or company anymore, he has never woke up before 10 o' clock in the morning so far and as I know he is trying to survive in some remote island in the Southeastern Pacific. I 'm not sure if I could do the same...❣
