Selves

Some things in life just happen… and I find myself following… sometimes I drift from what I think should be the destination… and some other times I reach it while thinking about the choices that led me there… I keep thinking about how those “things” happen, but I never understand… I feel that my soul is flying away… not away from my body… but away from myself… I am floating… just floating on the surface of my thoughts… I feel lost inside myself… I am a group of scattered ideas and feelings that need to union to form the self I am looking for… the self I’ve been missing for a while… With all these struggles inside… my outer self is still one… is still resisting to repress my inner self which started to rebel on itself… It is really difficult to be one person with two or more Selves.

Faces

Since some time, and I can’t exactly remember when, I stopped keeping track of my memories and since then I feel much better… Sadly, I caught myself many times during the past few days remembering some of last year’s events… and I found that I learned a lot… This year should really be a memorable year whether I want it or not as it was one of the most important and difficult years in my life… it was one of my U-turns in life… but this discovery complicated the way I look into life and things so that I sometimes feel lost and don’t know where I stand any more… In this year, I met many people and I knew many of them… I mean I really “knew” them… Now I can see that people are very hard to understand… whenever I comprehend something or someone it turns out to be something else… I thought I was wearing a mask… but I discovered that others have many Faces…
