As I get older I start to realize that certain things that set me off when I was younger aren't worth the energy expended by getting angry. Anything that's happened over a decade ago is just dust in the wind, it may as well not of happened, especially if you're the only one that seems to be holding on.
Things change, so do people. I guess the reason I'm so pastoral atm is because I keep snagging this loose end that's be at the back of my mind for the past 5 years. I know I'm not the only person still thinking about this, but I may be the only person whose concern is genuine and not just gossip related.
I'm glad to be out of Thunder Bay, where everywhere I go has a million memories attached to it that seem to haunt my past on me. I re-live all the shitty mistakes I've made and recount every face that was there, sometimes I can look back and laugh and other times I'd rather pull my hood up over my head and walk away; healthy but sobering.
Feel ashamed because people think you should? Or just accept that you're not perfect, but allowed to make mistakes like everyone else.
