Mr. Freeman, part 59

Have you noticed what happened to words? What are you saying there, again? Ew-w-w! Your words seem to have decayed! Spoiled! Well, they still look and sound the same, but you know, what is the problem? THEY MEAN BUGGER ALL!!!

Look for yourself. At some point, people invented words to widen horizons of knowledge together. And what happened next? One dude was flogging rotten stuff to dummies. Other one promised to live in peace, but came at night and slaughtered everyone. One more bad-mouthed a friend to kiss off gallows. Fourth one was jabbering non-stop to attract chicks.

Generations were changing, and at this point, no one remembers about the sacred mission of words. They now play the role of ass-wipes and wipe silence! Remember those never-ending nixies, “Don’t! Don’t! Don’t! Don’t!” which turned into senseless mutter after hearing them non-stop from your folks? And you were like: “Never again! Pinky swear! I promise!” — Though you never even planned to change anything!

All those “in five minutes,” “starting from Monday,” “this is the last time,” “stuck in traffic” — you say to each other all the time - this is total bullshit, ain’t it? You totally forget that your whole world consists of notions, expressed by words. Take the sense out of the word and the world will turn into circus and whore-house! Tum-tum-tum-tum!!!

The strongest words lasted the longest, of course: “honour,” “justice,” “truth,” “God” — you feel them? Now we wanna puke when we hear them! And not so long ago they were real. You know who turned them into white noise? Yes, you are right! Men of law, politicians, priests, admen… Everyone who uses words as their work tools. And your likes and posts only rake up the fire! More! More! Come on! Post-like-comment! Post-like-comment! Post-like-post-like-post-like!!

Have you tried observing a fast with your soc-media? Like, shut your mouth and keep quiet for a week at least? Just worried that your mouth sphincter cannot handle silence! So, you really want to give meaning to your words again? Then keep quiet for seven, or better ten days! Without saying a word! Or surfing your social networks! Listen to yourself and your own vibes!

You know, once you stop crapping through your mouth amazing things start unraveling in your head. But it seems like a pretty big dare for you. My goodness! Nothing can relieve our pain Amidst the worldly sorrows; Nothing at all. The only thing is CONSCIENCE…
