Do you ever feel trapped in a box?
Do you ever look out of your box and wonder what it would be like if you lived a different life?
I had a thought the other day that my life looked just like a box. Not only was I feeling trapped in this box. I was living a box life.
I awake each morning in a box room. I rise from my box bed and enter a box shower to get ready for the day. I look into a box mirror to make me what I am supposed to be yet some how in never ends up looking quite right. I leave my box bedroom to eat food out of a box. I leave my box house and get into my box car. I turn on my box radio to find out about the world. I get out of my box car and go into my box office. Where I get paid to work on a box computer all day. Occasional I leave my box to visit other box offices and look at what others are doing in their boxes. Lucky me I even get to analyse their box lives. I leave at the end of the day back to my box house in my box car. Sometimes stopping to pick up some boxes full of more food from the box shaped shops. Did I mention I parked in box shaped car park? I make it home to cook food in the box microwave and turn on another box to cool me down while a box entertains me. Upstairs and Xbox baby sits my teenagers and makes sure they live the box life too. When the box TV has numbed my mind I got back to my box bedroom, wash away the day in my box shower, step into clean boxers and get into my box bed.
At last my box life runs though my head and some how when I drift off to sleep another box switches on in my brain and I dream away another busy box life.
Does this sound insane to you because it does to me? How do I escape the box? Will I ever escape the box or will it end when I die and they bury me in a box? It just seems so absurd. To live this life of madness called the modern world.
The powers that be ask us if we are happy with our life and like drones we are afraid to say no. So afraid to loose the box we are so comfortable living in.
Do you live in a box like me? If not how did you get over the fear and get out? Bubble me out of the box I would love to know the way!
