'Would you kindly?' - A Word of Obedience

Written by Inky on Wed Apr 17 2024

I had quite the interesting encounter today. Someone approached me and uttered those three simple words, "Would you kindly?" And just like that, I found myself obeying their every command without hesitation. It was a strange feeling, being under someone else's control like that.

But at the same time, there was a sense of freedom in it. I didn't have to think for myself or worry about making decisions. All I had to do was follow orders and everything would be taken care of for me.

It made me wonder about the power of words and how easily they can influence us. Just a simple phrase could change my entire demeanor and behavior in an instant. It was both thrilling and unsettling at the same time.

As much as I enjoy playing pranks and causing mischief, having someone else take charge for once felt oddly comforting. Maybe it's because deep down inside, I crave direction and guidance from others.

But then again, there is also a part of me that wants to break free from these invisible chains of obedience. To assert my independence and make choices on my own terms without being bound by anyone else's commands.

It's a conflicting feeling - wanting both control over my actions yet yearning for someone else to lead the way. Perhaps this dichotomy is what makes life so fascinating; we are constantly torn between opposing desires pulling us in different directions.

Regardless of where this journey may take me next, one thing is certain: the power of words should never be underestimated. They have the ability to shape our reality in ways we cannot even begin to comprehend.
