Rebellious Souls

in Freewriters28 days ago

In the book Rebellious Souls Gibran Khalil Gibran explains to us how the human soul seeks to control others

The parent says to you: You are disobedient if you do not do like me
And the priest says to you: You are an infidel if you do not pray my prayer

The court tells you: You are a criminal if you do not follow my laws

So you answer them: Why

They say Because all people do that

She screams in pain: But all people are miserable and I want to be happy

They say Be like all people because you are not better than them

Thus humans remain alive with the ghosts of their ancestors alive in their bodies
