Doodle Away
Doodle as if it were a window to a faraway land. Doodling your worries away, magical spirits being painted as your mind fades away. Doodle as if your soul were a vessel to the unknown. Doodling a memory until it becomes foam, and fades away into the ocean that gave birth to its bubbly fame. Doodle as if reality were the shadow of your creation. Doodling the eternal moments in a piece of cloth until from its fabric rises the beast of time made you. The being that was once trapped is now raging in pain! What has been done?! Don't comply with the monster's wrath; ordering you to live his fate. Unaware of your strengths, escape from its fury by doodling yourself away, doodle deeper, doodle toward the cosmos, doodle yourself away into the silence you chose to forget which knows the being better than yourself. If you do doodle, beware of the beast unless you are ready to doodle yourself away.
Within ourselves lies a beast, triggered by our thoughts. The beast is the emotional being unleashed as if it had the power to rule our decisions through a splash of hormones. The only way to put the beast on fire is to stop the chain of destructive thoughts before they take control over our self. If it is not stopped, then one enables the cyclical vice toward self condemnation (which is nurtured by fear) until something happens that makes us stop. That is to become aware of ourselves, and then doodle the fear away. What is the trigger of fear? What is fear and how profound is it within our structures of thought and belief? Why is fear so important to understand in order to reach peace?
