🌷 Importance Of Discernment...
Poetess : Tilottama Vijay Lele

Some places n people literally drain us
We absorb negative energy without fuss

Sometimes after walking into a room,
We feel d weight of unspoken tension

Then it settles around our shoulders.
N unknowingly we feel that pressure…

A friend’s call that gives us exhaustion…
Despite having done nothing but listen.

D office where d fluorescent lights,
Seemingly siphon our vitality of our lives

We do experience all this n a lot more
We talk about energy as a fixed resource

Something we've or don’t have on a day.
We wake up tired, blame we poorly slept

Feeling depleted after a social gathering
Our introversion that we dread working

D brain consumes 20% of our energy…
Despite it’s only 2% of weight of body…

It’s d most expensive organ to run,
Facing threat it sucks energy for solution

After walking into that tension-filled room,
Our brain processes vast signals-boom

Expressions, body language, voice-tone
Potential outcome of condition-interaction

All happens below level of consciousness
But it costs us metabolically all d same.

Our body doesn’t distinguish between,
Seeing a predator or attending a meeting

Triggering similar physiological responses
Face a tiger n to endure social situations

Human beings R all open systems,
Constantly exchange resources rhythms

Our surroundings n various relationships.
We've to navigate n stop energy-depletes

To live each day with full engagement…
When to send energy needs discernment.
