The world is a stage

The world is a stage

A Chapter by Ahmad Cox

The world is a stage
We are all players
We are all puppets
Playing our own strings
When we try and control
And pull our strings
Too tight
We can become rigid
Out of sync
Not moving smoothly
Fighting ourselves
Getting entangled
In our own strings
When we let go
When we give up control
Is when we will find
Our actions
Are more lifelike
More real
We will feel more animated
Lighter
Smoother
Our actions 
Gliding
As we glide 
Through life
If we learn to give up control
Don't hold so tight
You are only 
Holding yourself back 
Getting stuck
In your own strings
