You are a Reputed Bird in a Golden Cage

You are a beautiful admired and secured parrot in a golden cage.  Your family gives you security and comforts; your society gives you security, comforts and recognition. If you are sick, or met with accident or stolen, or attacked, they will give you security.  You need not worry about your food or dress or any other comforts, including a life partner.  The security and comforts are more that you have even forgotten that you are in a cage and you have no language of your own to express yourself.
See the bird in the sky.  It can fly wherever it wants, pathless paths are around.  But you should walk on the paths the society dictates by its rules.  The sky bird has no religion but it is one with Nature, one with the Divine. It doesn't go to church, doesn't read bible and has no beliefs in god, yet the most divine one.  What about you? Your thoughts cannot leap beyond your religious boundaries, even your very dressing should obey your religion.
The sky bird knows not it's parents.  It does not depend on them for food.  It does not legally fight for inheriting its parents properties.  It's completely free from parent's restrictions and their expectations. It has no relations as bondage.  It lives how nature leads. What about you?
You are a bird in the golden cage.  The bars are but your family, religion, education, society, beliefs and social recognition.  You are a parrot and you should repeat what others say.  Otherwise they won't like you.  If you don't think like others, the society will punish you.  Jesus was punished.  Socratice was punished.  The society has sucked away your freedom secretly by assuring security and comforts.  It rewards you with social recognition for being a slave, for being not as yourself but for being as it directed, dictated and expected.
