He takes one last look at the lever of pleasure and pain....and runs, as fast as he can and throws himself through the door of the open cage with the last energy he has left in his frail and broken frame.
He plummets, falling. It is dark as he falls and he it feels like slow motion. He remembers lots of things, good, bad, everything in between. Strangely he thinks to himself over and over. "I am Henry"
Henry lands gently into an embrace. The one who caught him is named SoSuave. Sosuave asks Henry if he is okay. Sosuave tells Henry he will be. Sosuave tells Henry to look around. Henry is weak but he his so glad he has someone there with him. As Henry looks around he sees cages all around. Cages that look just like his. But, Henry sees no movement. He hears nothing? He looks at Sosuave. Then he looks back at the cages.
He realizes he can see lifeless forms of rats in various stages of rigor mortis. And then, in his weakened condition, the smell hits him.
"They are all dead?" He asks? So suave answers "Yes". And Henry knows immediately. One more pull on that lever and he would have died.
Sosuave carries Henry across the floor and through a small hole in the wall. While Sosuave is dragging Henry, he tells him that he has been calling for him for a while now.
On the other side of the whole in the wall Henry is blinded by the lights and sounds of a life and environment he never knew existed. He passes out.
When Henry wakes up the first thing he thinks is about treats. And, then, how they almost killed him. He leaves the room where he is and notices a mirror. He never really saw his own reflection before, at least not that he remembers. He peers into it and he is blown away.
"What have I become!?"
He hears the voice of Sosuave. "You have taken the first step to becoming you" "Its not very nice right now. But Henry, you are alive!" "Alive enough to even look into the mirror that many never will" "And that, Henry, is all you need"
And then Henry asks something he knows is even stupider than it sounded in his head. "What about the treats?"
Sosuave laughs. He takes Henry to the window. As SoSuave pulls back the shade Henry sees a mountain. It looks just like a giant treat. Henry exclaims. "Nooooo. Waayyyy!" "Yep" Says Sosuave. "There are hills and mountains out there, full of treats." Henry asks" Well how do I get there!? It seems so far away."
Sosuave says to him. "You can have all the treats in the world Henry. You just got to stop thinking about the old ones." "Ill help you get healthy. You just have to train your body, read literature about emotional and mental health, and get into something just as much as you were into treats....THAT IS NOT TREATS! Not yet."
Henry agrees. He cant wait. He is so happy to be alive and have a friend that cares. He is so happy that he can hear his voice now. Henry most of all cant wait for a time were he doesn't even think about treats as much as he used to.
"Hey Henry!" Sosuave calls him over. "You ready to get started" Henry says, "Yeah, I think so" Sosuave says "Okay. I just want to show you something first. Come here."
Sosuave opens a draw and Henry pinches his nose at a foul smell as he cranes his neck to look over Sosuaves shoulder into the draw. Henry says. "Dude, WTF is that, sh!t?" Sosuave tells him. " I grabbed a treat for you on the way out. Just in case you ever wanted just one more taste." Henry laughs. But then he realizes. In his memory he recalls. Thats exactly what his old treats looked like. Sosauve tells him.
"Thats right Henry. You were eating sh!t this whole time. You just didn't know it, because you never knew what anything else could taste like. You lived in a cage."
MORAL:
The cage is your habits. You fear to grow. DO THE WORK. The harder it feels the better it is for you. Work out. See a therapist. Get a hobby and work longer hrs for awhile. LEAVE THE CAGE. Be smarter than a rat.
Treats are cluster B girlfriends (or and incompatible person you tolerate because you are fat, lazy, unmotivated and too nice. Stop it. Be a man. Stop eating sh!t.
Sosuave and its resources are your friend. Listen to the voices. Ignore your own sometimes if you have too. Im not just talking about the advice here either. Im talking about the thousands of links and books that have been shared. READ THEM you A$$holes. They might literally save your life. If you are tolerating sh!t behavior from anyone in your life more than 3 times. You suck. Stop. Read the literal manuals on how to stop sucking so bad.
The mountains of treats are all the different experiences in life, and woman of course as well, that you are not tasting because you are too busying enjoying eating **** and electric shocks to your brain sh!ty people are giving you.
This story has basis in actual psychology experiments. Look it up.
Also, from my own experiences.
In a way its not your fault. Yet, once you have been told by people smarter or at least more clear headed than you, and you continue, NOW, it is your fault. Take the help you are given.
