It’s been a
while since I’ve felt good. I have stated before that what I am going through
is somewhat like going through a tunnel and not being able to find the exit, or
the hidden dynamite which can make an exit for you.
I may not
have the dynamite yet, but I am feeling good. I am searching for the way out. I
am getting ready to come out of this dark tunnel I’ve inhabited for so many
days and months now.
Remember
Gandalf’s fight with the Balrog or Durin’s Bane in The Lord of the Rings? I
have battled a similar foe across time. I finally have managed to rescue my
mind from it’s grip and start dealing some damage of my own in return. Results
are slow however, so maybe I need to find new thought processes.
Our mind is
like a cage. It gives us an option to lock memories away. It leaves the choice
of memory to us. You can lock away the first time you ate ice cream or you can
lock away the first time you got in a fight. You can lock away your 21st
birthday celebration or you can lock away what your mother said to you in your
schooldays.
Choose
wisely, because if you lock away a happy memory, then all you’re left with is
sadness ans Steven Wilson crooning something like Hand Cannot Erase on your
phone.
This is a
short post, because this story is still being written. I will complete it as I
go along. Until next time, take care of yourself and the ones you love. I hope
all of you stay happy.
The Bilge Master
