There is within us all a savage beast waiting to free itself. The beast lurks in the darkness, the shadows of your self. The longer you cage the beast, the less control you will have when it gets free. You have to acknowledge the beast. You have to accept it. You should even learn to love it. It's not really a monster. Your beast is the true you, your core, the being pushed into hiding by centuries of societal rules. We're not born clothed and obedient. We're born with the true desires of any living creature on this planet: Breathe. Feed. Procreate. Society told you to hide your flesh in shame, repress your carnal urges and ignore your natural instincts. Conform.
To let your beast run wild in today's world would certainly cause devastation to many, including yourself. But. To keep it caged all the time is inviting the inevitable explosion of any great force ignored until break point. You have to get to know it so you can control it. You can enjoy it. Let your beast out to play. It will get free eventually.
