Theatrical Muse Topic: What do you still have from when you were young?

Jan 15, 2010 17:07

There is a place, a house, which I will never divulge the location of. In that place are many of the possessions I had as a little boy. Among these are toys, clothes, and the picture books full of fairy tales that my mother read to me… precious things that were part of the few happy events of my childhood.

Of course, that happiness had my beloved Mommy as its source.

There are also things that are not so tangible that I still have from my youth. They are memories, good and bad. They consist of barely remembered songs that my mother lulled me to sleep with and all the happy thoughts and the angry thoughts. Thoughts of rage at the bullies and dreamed-of revenge, a vengeance that I would come to enact on any who crossed me when I died and rose again.

I carry very little with me nowadays, but much of what makes me function now has to do with my early youth.
