Unsettling Mind

Silence has been brought about by the very oppression of the mind full of thoughts that bring us to the tyranny of our very existence here on earth. Silence is the corruption of the human’s true expression: speech/noise.

Oppression of the human state of noise which leads to silence brings about different entities to the human trail of thought. “Rumors, unfair criticisms, comments and downright falsehoods” are some of the direct effects of speech oppression. (Cooray 6.1) Therefore, the freedom to make noise shouldn’t be restricted by all means, rather make it known that freedom to speech, like all freedoms, is never absolute.

Another major effect that we encounter with the oppression of speech is the unsettling state of mind. Truly, a person’s unsettled mind is a product of the copulation of the conscious and the subconscious mind. Without further addition, every thought the conscious thinks goes to the processing of the unconscious and vice versa.

The grapple of the unconscious against the conscious mind in the film is incomprehensively real. It is with the control over the present situation relies heavily upon the conscious and the subconscious mind, that it dictates whether you do this, or you do that, or not to do anything. Tyler Durden brings about Jack’s deeply hidden desires as he is the one doing things for Jack, that as first, Jack didn’t know was that he was doing it by himself and, that the things that have been done came from no other person’s head but his.

Scared of the thought of retribution about keeping people silent, my mom and I, as the second family of my father, already don’t mind if relatives of my father talk point blank about his other family. Even as a child, I have already known, I have already encountered the very essence of being talked about by people as if I wasn’t there. What could I do? I was just a small boy. Even though my parents were married legally, the relatives of my father didn’t want it to happen because that they were thinking about the kids’ future. My mom didn’t really think about it because love was the bond that brought my parents to where they were and that no one should ever break it especially if the problem was to be remedied easily as such that funds can be drawn out of the kids’ mom’s savings for their future and that even though married, she still does let my father be with his children anytime they wanted to be with each other. However, sometimes I get full of their talking about the other family, that I cry at night, thinking about what those relatives were thinking about, talking about the other people even in our presence. I don’t think it’s even right to talk about his first wife, but talking about it in front of us is just plain mockery of our beings, that we don’t have the right to be there, to be his new family.

Having gone towards pounding pain, heartbreaking thoughts and sleepless nights, all but one can say is that freedom is never absolute and should never be, in order to maintain order and peace to shield our very existence from the chaos that also makes the essence of our lives: freedom of speech.
