-I have so much to say! Hello???
There were few people around. I thought this the perfect opportunity to speak up my mind. But strangely nobody seems to be interested what I have got to say.
Isn’t this speaking corner of Hyde Park? Description I have read on the internet saying: “A Speakers' Corner is an area where open-air public speaking, debate and discussion are allowed. “ I will talk anyway. Even tough if I come across like I am talking to myself.
-When did we lose our compassion to each other? Did it happen when we disconnected from ourselves? Why there is so much greed in the world? I don’t think these are any human qualities. How can I make it better? Maybe even I am not doing enough, contributing enough to human consciousness…I want to change this, help me to help each other to make the first step!!!!
I got so much into what I was saying, I did not realize there were almost twenty people gathered around. But there was no reaction from the crowd. They were all looking blank. Then I saw one guy approaching to where I was standing. He came close and stood exactly where I was then start talking.
I almost felt like his body merged with mine and I looked up my hands, they were his hands. So this was not only a feeling. I became him. However, I could not hear any of his thoughts or feelings.
I closed my eyes and try to imagine my own body and self then when I opened my eyes I was standing in a coffee shop.
-How did I get here?
-Excuse me? Someone said.
-My God! Can you see me? Hear me?
-Excuse me, you forgot your change, he shouted.
Then I realized he was talking to the lady behind me. I turned around and had one step toward her. Yet again I found myself merging with this lady.
-What is going on? I shouted in my head.
-Calm down child, you are in a safe place? Someone responds.
-Who and where are you? How can I be in a safe place if I just keep merging my soul with strangers and losing my physical body?
-You are not really here my darling. Please trust!
I had no other choice but listen to the voice. And I connected with something within me brings up the trust.
When I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by people, they were hundreds of them.
-What is this place? I whispered to the man next to me. Not expecting to get any answer.
-You died. He said. Then he disappeared, he was smiling.
-What did he mean by I died? I shouted. My reaction was apparently too loud, all hundreds of people’s head turned towards me.
-Be quiet, if you ever want to leave. Someone said.
I must be losing my mind. I don’t recall any experience of accident, illness etc to cause my death. How is that possible, I thought.
-Close your eyes! Someone shouted, this time command was for everyone. So, I closed my eyes.
-Excuse me! Can you see me? I asked. I found myself on a back garden of a bar.
-Of course, I see you. A guy who was smoking responded.
-Apparently, I died!
-You seem pretty much alive to me! He replied.
-Oh great! I said.
-Tell me do you know how did you die? Like this? Then he pointed a gun and shot me.
I remember now! I was in this bar, went out to the garden for a smoke. There was some argument between few drunk people then I left. I was thinking about when we lost our compassion to each other.
Apparently, I’ve never left the bar…
