Journal #4 - I can't go home again
" If I had a way I'd run through the dark and the door
the man that you loved ain't alive anymore
I can't go home again"
Coheed and Cambria - The Dark and the Door
Sometimes I feel I have psychic connection Claudio Sanchez of C&C cause no one more often gets the exact words to put everything in my life into perspective. This small clip from this song really nails everything that has been going on in my life these past few weeks. Essentially, we are all new person every moment, and life is just a series of moments and new beginnings. The me I was 5 minutes ago is dead, and the me I am now will no longer be the moment I hit the submit button. While this reality is something we all usually don't need to acknowledge there is those times we get stuck in a moment.
You get stuck in a moment, the people you were in that moment, the feelings that existed in that moment and spend you life dwelling on how to return to a moment that is dead, this is a problem for me and those around me just caught in a massive torrid tale of memories we all wish we could relive, each holding on different moments and hopes.
The me in that moment is gone as much as the person who loved me that moment is gone as well. The person I loved in that moment no longer exists and when this happens we blame the new person for the disappearance of the moment you miss.
Every moment ends, and every moment brings a new you and new opportunities. You can either take those old feelings and memories and cherish them for the moments that they are or let them consume you in trying to create a future out of the past. I hope to get back to just appreciating the moment in my life for what they are and they were.
To those I've hurt or complicated these past few weeks, I'm sorry, but I've made my promises and you can all always stand under my umbrella. Although, for now I guess I'll bow out of the spotlight gracefully and accept these last few moments, I haven't been to fond of the person I've been. To great moments to come and betters me's to be.
