Minding the mind..
By Bai Maleiha Bajunaid Candao
Man is inexplicably unique by all
dimensions. Pinch his skin and
you will hear him say “ouch..”
Challenge his ego and you hear
nothing but inside he is burning
like hell.Agitated.Like an
imprisoned bird wanting to be
released from cage.
He is complicated..he shouts
from his spiritual abyss but his
lips are tightly sealed.What
separates man from his ego was
not clearly explained by Freud’s
pyschoanalysis…what is in
fact very confusing for me
is not knowing which part of
man that truly dominates his
thoughts and actions.
Is it his libido or unresting
sexual urge that haunts him
day and night?But this is not fair
for all.Man is not a
capsule of sexual
angst..he is more than
that.In fact he can
professionalized his moves
which make others
unsuspecting of his motives.
Wait a minute…are you getting
my point here,ladies, gentlemen
and members of the third sex?
Indeed,it is confusing if we wont
mind the unminded,for it is still
common sense to mind the mind..
the cerebral power of our central
nervous system..the nucleus of
man’s rationality and his excuse
for his missed illogicality.
Shame,no shame.Shame no one.
I want to ask therefore,if man
behaves sexually promiscious,
is this part of the brain
relegated to his middle..
which part does the
thinking or is he thinking
at all?
This applies to ladies as well.
Do we have the right to say that
when a man is disloyal to his wife,is
it therefore indicative that he loses
his cognitive ability to size up that
his moral values are being thrown out
of the window?
But do we have the right to
conclude that an act is right or
wrong when in reality we are also
as guilty as the condemned?
Is your paper unblemished?
NO erasure?No mistakes?
Do you keep on writing
then erase it again when your
conscience dictates it to be so?
Ahhh…who among us is
pretending to be perfect? That
he or she can absolutely say
that he/she has not committed
even an iota of sin?
Does it escape the mind of a masked
man that he when curses,he is as
guilty as the one he blasphemes?
Who has the right to stand in the
middle of the crowd and raise
his hand to say”Hail Hitler!!”
That was the irony of life then,
when the Germans were
overwhelmed by so much
fictionality of perfection..
Hitler then idolized his
concept of perfection when he
was stepping on the maggots of
his rotten soul.
How dare you to say that you are
perfect and those you say imperfect
are less dignified..who are you
anyway?
For only when one minds you thus
you become an entity relevant
to life.Otherwise you are just a dot
like me..
But unlike you I am not perfect..
thus it makes me more truthful
than yours which is masked with
despicable artifice.
Mind the mind but please just mind
yours.(All rights reserved.)
