The image evoked by the metaphor ‘like stones in a cage’ is very powerful and represents a disturbing reality: that of feeling trapped, inert and emotionless. In modern society, many people can feel like wrecks, stuck in routines or roles that do not really reflect their essence. This condition of alienation and emotional disconnection can result from several factors, such as social pressure, job expectations, and technology that isolates us instead of uniting us.

Emotions are what make us human and able to connect with others; without them, we really feel like stones: hard, cold and lifeless. It is important to rediscover the value of emotions and find ways to express them, whether through art, communication or simply by creating more authentic connections with the people around us.

Getting back in touch with one’s own feelings and those of others can help us ‘get out of the cage’ and live a fuller, more meaningful life. If you would like, we can elaborate further on this topic, to see how we can break these chains and regain emotional vitality.
