Okay, lets compare the different stages of life to the different stages of a washing machines cycle. I was thinking about it the other day and i think they are very similar.
I know this might be a little weird but think about it, it makes sense i think.
Setting up the controls, adding the detergent:
This stage before your born where your parents decide how they want you to grow up and what sort of parenting skills they are going to use with you, this could be described as setting the controls, you can either have a Redular everday life or you can have a Delicate, Special life with added on bits that make your life different from everyone elses. The adding of the detergent could be described as DNA or genes, when these are added they always come out in the final product, there are traces of both your parents in you.
Fill Cycle:
This is where it begins. The first few years of your life are development, your being 'filled' with knowledge and awareness of your world and yourself, while you are being 'filled' you are lying back on this cushy layer of suds that is forming around you, kaing sure you stay safe and happy, this is your parents love and security. Some people don't have much sud cover because their parents may not choose to give them as much security and love as other more sudsy detergents.
Wash Cycle:
Your childhood years, your now fully aware of yourself and your world and you can cruise along still being protected by this layer of suds around you, your stil turning over tho, attending school, your learning new things and growing up, your going to turn into a nice squeaky clean teenager
Of course not every wash cycle is quite so gentle, people like to use Super cycles or vigourous cycles where their childhood might be a bit more rocky, sometimes people select incorrect water levels so the suds don't quite reach the child and the child struggles. 9 times out of 10 tho we have happy and safe childhoods.
First Drain/Spin, Rinse fill:
Okay, heres where that first bit of security drains away and you begin to know what it feels like to be on your own. Your a teenager now, the suds are still there but they are not protecting you as much as they used to, kinda leaving you flat in the bottom of the tub wondering where to go, what to do, how to move forward. Before you know where you are CLUNK! your thrown into this world of confusion, you start developing sexually and this just adds to the confusion, sometimes your feel like you are spinning round in this world with no real direction. CLUNK! you gradually come back down to earth and regain your sense of self and sense of direction in life, the journey has left you a little crumpled but your not in too bad shape. The you start being filled up with new and intresting knowledge about being an adult, sex, how to care for onesself. This fill is generally cold and doesn't have that comfy layer of suds that was present the first time, there is a softness about the water tho and this is your sense of self esteem and self worth, some people don't use softner and may find adjusting to this new knowledge a bit harsher than others but we all get through and enter adulthood.
Rinse Cycles:
This is adulthood now, swishing around in this world doing your thing, there are gonna be some more drains and spins and fills along the way, some being faster and harsher than others but you get by living each day. With each one of these rinses you lose a little of something, wether it be health, wealth, beauty, family, whatever it is you lose something but this is all part of the cycle.
Final Drain:
This is where it all gets pumped away, you start to lose hold of everything gradually, your family may slip through your fingers, your health may deteriorate and thers not a lot you can do to stop it, depending on the power of your pump depends on how quickly these things fall away. You still have yourself tho and theres a lot still in you, your pride, dignity, beliefs, values are all still apart of you.
Final Spin:
CLUNK!, It all goes up in the air again, you feel lie your spinning again only this time your not stopping, things are flying away bit by bit, every minute your in this spinny world your losing a apart of your self. Suddenly it starts going faster and faster until you reach this speed where its no longer confusing, frustrating, your just cruising along, enjoying being carried and not having to worry about anything, this is similar to the first stage of life when you didn't have to worry about anything coz you had that layer of suds to protect you. These suds are long gone now and your just crusing along.
Stop/Off:
CLUNK! Thats it, its over, youve been through it all and now its time to reach the end and come to a rest. Theres no water of life, no suds, maybe a little trace of detergent but nothing much, you have the softness of life that means youve been through it, lived it, loved it. Your resting in the bottom of the tub, right back where you started, maybe more detergent will be added and the cycle will start again, who knows? Some people think it does, our cycle begins again but this time the program is different.
Drying:
The method with which you end your cycle is your own choice, some people want to be dried in tumblers fueled by heat and motion (kinda like cremation).
Some people like being put outside in the ground so that nature can take its course and do with you what it will (kinda like clothes being hung outside, its all natural, theres no man made heat or power).
EXEPTIONS:
Sudden Cycle End- Of course, not every cycle can be the same, some are cut short halfway, not everyone gets to go through till the final spin. The events of the world indicate this, 9/11- thousands of cycles stopped midway that day, not getting to experience that final spin and the peacefulness of the cycle end.
Out Of Balance- Some people in that first spin and sometimes in the final spin get a bit too unbalanced and their world comes crashing down and they sit waiting for that guiding hand to put them on the right track, wether it be religion or the kindness of family and friends, people generally start off again and carry on, some however don't get that guiding hand and sit until its too late (reference to people who don't realize when their washing machine has gone OOB).
Okay, thats it, i started thinking about that when i couldn't sleep one night, things have been happening in my little Cycle and i think i've just hit the second drain and spin, things are happening that are throwing me out of whack and i feel like i've lost control a little, i know as soon as i get back to Uni after Xmas that i'll start that next Rinse fill cycle and things will be fine.
Please look at this and think about your own lifes, Xmas is a time where i look back on the year and see how far i've come, whats changed and where i think i'm headed.
Happy Christmas to ALL of you
