My Conversations with my Tongue

The title may sound weird and also an impossible event .But in the realm of the mystic the impossible becomes possible and the possible becomes impossible. Yesterday a ray of wisdom came to light after a person verbally abused me. I heard him but did not listen to him. I remarked to myself”He has a caustic tongue. “Immediately my tongue got provoked and and reacted ”I am extremely upset with you. You know as a doctor the lips, teeth,muscles of the face, the voice box ,myself and the brain orchestrate the acoustic event of speech. But you humans blame me that I am the one who is caustic when somebody verbally abuses another person. Are you people not biased and partial ? I am the person who gives you the sense of taste and am responsible for the worldly pleasure termed Sweet. When somebody speaks good you remark that he is good human. When somebody sings melodiously you remark that he he has a beautiful voice. Why are you a hypocrite utilising every opportunity for your advantage. Be truthful and an unbiased person”.I hung my head in shame and tears of shame tricked down my cheeks . I am in fear what my eyes will converse with me. That day is not far away🙏
