Take my heart as you're leaving, I don't need it anymore...
They say that your past always has a way of catching up to you, and for once I actually understand this. Our past is who we are, it's what we carry into every relationship and every experience in the future. It's how we learn who we are, and even more importantly, who we are not. A person's past plays a huge part in how they live their life, from the way they think to the way they feel. And trying to pretend it doesn't is where you can get into trouble.
This is all that I could think about today. How we can try so hard to convey a certain feeling or emotion and always come up short. And why is it so hard to make someone else understand what you're thinking? I always seem to run into this same problem, this feeling like what I say and what I mean are two completely different things. And that got me thinking about the fact that no one can 100% identify with the way you feel, because the way you feel is affected by the way you've FELT. By past experiences and things you've learned and picked up along the way. It's virtually impossible to make someone else understand something the way you do, because we relate our feelings back to our experiences. It's so damn frusturating, sometimes I just feel like screaming.
I miss the days when life was easy. But life's never really easy as it is. And the things that matter the most are always the ones that are the hardest to let go of. The hardest to break apart from. And the absolute worst to hold onto.
