The dark is something like a tunnel, an
abyss, whose depth you don’t know. You cannot see the inside, and this factor
of UNKNOWN is the devil, the monster , which keeps haunting us. The very
mention of a haunted house, conjures up a vision of an old, shattered house,
with broken window panes, trees protruding from the walls, planning to unfold and engulf things in entirety. The memories,
childhood visIons ie the subconscious manifests itself, not letting us shy those
dreary visions.
But then, Though we fear, though we cuddle up in
our bed, we can hardly miss our favourite horror books, flicks.....isn’t
that true? This implies, though we are fearful, we don’t stop to watch/read
something that gives us pleasure. if so, why cant/don’t we extrapolate this to our
real life emotions/situations????
We are fearful, we are tensed, and we are
bothered of the outcome…we let go off things; we choose the simplest
method of compromise, , wriggling out through such situations....don't
we? We trim the wings of our dreams,
procrastinating and cursing the Almighty for giving us the poisoned cup of
destiny; we do this only because we are suffused with an aroma of fear, the
fear of stretching ourselves, the fear of moving out of the comfort zone, the
fear of the outcome - THE UNKNOWN.
But if we really want to do something, if we are
passionate about something, why cant that BIG
PICTURE, which is subconscious, manifest itself, allowing us to nail those groans
of apprehension and take the charge. Why cant we let go , or embrace those
skittish, eerie feelings : I know you are there out in the dark, in the woods,
but then I am not afraid as I am too engrossed in my Quest.
Can a correlation be ascertained or the analogy drawn
is just farcical?
