I was waking up ... opening my eyes ... thinking only at the taste of coffee that i will drink in 10 minutes.
It was a sunny day ... so i was already defining that day as a beautiful one.
Then ... i was hearing someone ...calling me ... with a very load voice.
It was someone in our garden ... and looked like a person that lost his mind.
I usually recognize the voice right away, cause i spoke on the phone with thousands of people during the years ... but i did not realized who that was.
7:30 am ... Thursday morning ... what could it be about?!
Even if someone from Police would come, would be even more polite.
I went to the garden ... and then i saw in there a neighbor that i didn’t see for years.
I just told him ... “What the hell are you doing in here?! Get out or i call the Police”.
He stopped ... tried to explain me something... but i did not understood anything at all.
I was only hearing ... “I lost my mind by already 2 weeks! ... i just lost my mind!”
So ... a guy that i had nothing to do with ... was at the first hour in my garden ... explaining me that he lost his mind ... but i was not even drinking my coffee.
My youngest son got scared.
My wife also.
I was working in sales for years and i had the chance ... or should i say the opportunity?! ... to meet lots of crazy persons ... so i was keeping my calm.
But i also remembered what Seneca used to say that only the fact that you own wild animals is dangerous even if you keep them in a cage, cause they could kill you when you try to feed them.
And it is the same with those crazy persons ... they just become wild ... not being responsible for what they do.
I tried to find out why he was so mad ... and it looked like he had a conflict with a lady that rented a house from me ... but also 2 weeks ago another neighbor made a complain at the city hall cause he owns too many bigs etc etc.
He was keep repeating ... “i lost my mind! I lost my mind”
He was coming to me ... to help him ... and i realized that he became calm only when i’ve asked ... “Please tell me what i could do to help you!”
He was desperate ... but because he lost control on himself ... and hearing that i will help ... made him see things in a totally different perspective.
He left ... after 5 minutes ... only when i was becoming calm and spoke with him with love.
It was a total non sense what happened ... but i was wondering what was the message behind the message.
In a second i understood i lost my mind many, many times ... and probably i found the help only inside of me ... cause no one really calmed me at that time.
I was not different than that person that came to my house.
Truth be told ... we live in a crazy world ... but we also have moments of craziness ... and we totally forget that.
Losing your mind ... means to lose control over yourself ... and not being responsible anymore about what you do.
The wild side of us ... is there.
But it’s only a decision to show to the world our beautiful side.
