we were made for these times.

sometimes we drift away into a world we call our own; it’s in our minds, in our hearts, in our past. it’s the one thing we can say is ours and ours only. all the memories and the nostalgia; all the feelings and the emotions. our own. they have been diluted by none, they have been touched by none but us. all these inner thoughts and inner feelings and inner meanings are ours alone. they shape our understanding of life and our hurt. they allow us to know what we deserve and how others should be treated. it lets us know where we stand in our relationships, in our social dealings, what we want out of life, and what we’re doing with ourselves. sometimes we drift into this world that’s too familiar. that’s safe. that’s ours. the mind and the heart is ours.
