I din't knew why I said that then I saw the television,there transmitting the news.I asked myself why? why I din't turn it off when I began to read? I have became a slave,one of many millions, even billions,I can't remeber when was the last time I spend a single day without watching it.How many of you remember that? Two? Five persons? I turned the tv off and went to the backyard,alone in the darkness,What was I looking for? I din't knew until I saw it,the stars in the sky,twinkling in many colors,so beautiful,I gazed upon them as it was the first time I saw them,I kept comtemplating them for a long time,but I din't knew why,there's was a weight in me,in my heart.The pressures of the day,my fears and and fury,all in my heart this night,stars weren't enough to calm my feelings.So I listened,I heard the sea,the sounds of the waves were relaxing so I knew I have to go there,as I walked to the sea,I kept listening...so many noises,dogs,crickets and many coquis all in the single melody of the night.I reached the sea, it was so beautiful,the moon and stars made a reflection on the water like there were no boundaries between heaven and earth.I saw the sea and began to feel strange,the beauty.......the sounds of the night,a then I did it...I began to cry,like there were no tomorrow,din't knew if it was for the beauty of the moment or for sadness,I haven't cried in years since I was a child,as the minutes passed my tears were becoming slower and slower until they stopped.I can't believe it but I feeled like there were no chains on me,like the weight I was carrying was no more.As I watched this heaven on earth I became free,true freedom,I was one with the universe there was anyone else in this planet in that time.Oh God I talked much,if you are reading this,that means that you can become free,that you have the time to read this and think about life,don't become a slave of that box,free yourself at least one night and you'll see what was I just talking about.Goodbye and good luck. -Anonymouse- You can join Unsolved Mysteries and post your own mysteries or interesting stories for the world to read and respond to Click here Scroll all the way down to read replies.
