ghostsOfYesteryear



Do you ever find yourself haunted by old ghosts? I don't mean "ghosts" in the sense of supernatural beings, I mean "ghosts" in the sense of past events, past thoughts, actions or experiences? It usually happens every year around this time that I find myself revisited by memories, or as I have so casually been referring to them, ghosts. I just can't seem to shake them, and I know that I really do need to find a way to let them go, to rid myself of them once and for all.

Last night I was trapped in this strange place between a state of dreaming and a state of consciousness, in which I re-lived a certain period of my life in full and graphic detail. It was so real to me that when I came around, I was shaking. What does that mean? I thought I had found closure to all things gone by that may have troubled me, but instead, I find myself being attacked at full force. Strange. Maybe I need to do some serious self-evaluation.

But before I go on and sound even more like some cheesy late-adolescent journal entry, I'm going to go.

Sleep well.
