Institutionalized!

Yesterday, I moved to a new cubicle not far from my old one. This morning, when I went to work, I went straight to my old cubicle. Boy! I have been sitting in that old cubicle for just 8 months. Still, I went there to say "Hi" to my old desk :) I could not help thinking on my way to the new cubicle on how we get institutionalized in today's world with our daily routines and more routines. You remember in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption", what Red (Morgan Freeman, who is on parole after few decades in prison) feels when his store manager tells him not to ask his permission to piss?... "Forty years I've been asking permission to piss. I can't squeeze a drop without say-so".
