Life does several things to one's personality. It is sometimes so full of events and everyday monotone, that there is no time for oneself at all. And then we see ourselves taking ourselves for granted.
The inner voice is one such thing - "the" taken for granted thing. My past memories bring this revelation to the front. The philosophically and spiritually inclined say that the inner voice is a manifestation of the Supreme Lord. Sometimes, this thought scares me out of the wits and sometimes it is more than just a "mere fact". How many times has it happened when things happen before our own eyes and we accept it as -is. Maybe our inner voice told us to be aware of such an occurrence. Maybe then, we prepare ourselves subconsciously for the event. Whatever be the case, I have no concrete answers to that question.
And the mind then takes over with these thoughts. Work place or home or other personal relationships, it reminds me that my presence comes as taken for granted. What will happen if I were to vanish from this world for a moment?? Would it make a difference?
Then there are more questions - am I taking everyone around me and their presence for granted? What about parents? How many times would I have taken them for granted? I think every child has a unique answer to this question...
Then the inner voice takes over.
This time I do not want it to be taken for granted. And then the thoughts begin to flow all over again...
