Are you Wild or Well-tamed?


Hiding behind one’s external persona is a deeper core of real self.


A self that has a touch of The Wild! 


It's ferocious, vigorous, impulsive! And if not leashed tightly… it goes simply Wild!


I say so as it bears all the features of being animalistic! To list a few…


It's quick to anger

Vulnerable to intense jealousy

Lead by insane possessiveness

Mad enough to act crazily


Forgets the importance of relationships

Is self-obsessed and ego-centric

It desires the Moon 

and beyond…. All that is!


Unmanaged and uncontrolled

It goes wild and… wilder,

It's within you, me, him and her

Deep deep inside us!


So, time and again

One needs to tame it!

Talk to it, threaten it,

Do whatever to subdue it!


We need to remind each other

We need to read those books

We need to do whatever it takes

To keep it hung tightly on hooks!


So, lets this evening,

Save a few moments for self

To do a little check and 

Take that required step


Let's tame it down further 

To build a prettier life 

Life full of joy…

Contentment, and those wider smiles!


And when you are done

Do take a deeper relook

And answer it for yourself

Are you well-tamed… Or wild & need another book? 😜😊
