This is by no means a new thing phenomenon: the Bible says "there’s
nothing new under the sun". There are several examples scattered throughout
history; from Caeser and Brutus to Jesus and Judas, history as the cliche goes seems to repeat itself. Which begs the question: Why is it that even when we’ve
been forewarned, advised, chastised even gotten our fingers burnt a couple of times
or in most cases, one time too many? Why do we still walk along to the chopping
block, seemingly blind and deaf to all the signs and warnings, walking on to
take the plunge to our downfall, like lamb to the slaughter? Why?
It’s never a good feeling having someone we hold in high regard,
care about or love disappoint us. It truly hurts when a friend turns to foe, the pain felt is like hot steel piercing our
chest, the resulting scar we bear for years and years. Often times, we react by shutting out everyone, retreating to a lonely cave. Once there, we sink to the depths of the earth, totally in doldrums, feeling defeated, we
embrace despair. From this point it’s virtually impossible to see any silver lining not to
talk of the sky.
Sadly, in an average person’s lifetime, it’ll probably happen more
often than we’d care to count.
So, have you had such an experience and what were the lessons
learnt? Drop your comments and reactions. Meanwhile, I smell a sequel, lol.
