a monster lives in me

amarama · Mar 12th, 2006, 21:26

I forgot the monster inside. Most of the time I m pretty laid back, recently a classic international scam was tried to be pulled on me, then out of the blue turne monster erupts, first I get really hot, then my hands turn to fists, my face turns red, my eyes bulge, I could only image what my eyes must look like. Then my vioce changes to a growl, now I'm ready. Whats next, tourist, police, Ib, george Bush. The crows from kilos around start circling, threre is blood in the air, I'm so sorry sir, our mistake. Ok back to normal, nothing happened. The monster returns to his den. Back to enjoying India. Is this common behavior among experienced travels?

Dear Amarama:

Yes.

Great conversation, but complete. What else to say?

Love the sig, Sironsongs!

Completely normal.

I usually have two or three outbursts like that in a six month stay.

(Unfortunately my personal monster usually takes everything out on any poor bastard that's in the wrong place at the wrong time.)

Good one chandra, I knew a similar person with the same name & met her couple of yrs. back. She taught she was a re-incarnation of Parvati, Shiva's consort. Had really a hard time in India & always used to get into all kinds of fights.
Personally only 4-5 in my entire life, it starts with the shaking & have come very close to actually killing somebody. But thankfully, each time the anger/monster subsided & nothing happens. It's a very thin line.
