Layers within us

A chocolate shell with a delicious filling inside looks like a regular chocolate shell till you bite it and taste what lies beneath it. It could also be the other way, a colorful candy looks innocuous and you bite it, just when you realize it had a bitter liquid housed inside it.
We humans are even more intricate. Not just one or two, we are made of several layers, which are beyond our own comprehension. Most of the times, when we see ourselves, we look at the outermost shell. We live with this shell day after day, without exploring what lies beneath. Sometimes, a certain situation unique in its own way, acts as a catalyst for us to talk to our layer underneath the outer shell. On these occasions we might feel discontent, overjoyed, depressed , bitter or peaceful after a perfectly normal disposition depending on the nature of the filling which could be the sweet chocolate or a bitter gel. Its good to communicate with the layers below regularly for the overall harmony of yourself. There could be many means through which this could be consummated. Meditation could be one, music, wine and anything that makes you talk to yourself depending on what perpetrates the act for you.
