Memories
I was thinking today on the way to work about memories. Mainly about how memories can haunt you and how the memories you don't want to remember seem to over power the good ones.
Hence the need for mind control and positive thinking.
However, I thought about choices and making the making of those choices. If we made good choices throughout our lives, would we be so tormented at times?
I thought about my life and the choices I have made and how those poor choices could possibly over power my thought process and have a devastating effect.
Sometimes my memories get me down. Sometimes I allow my memories to over power me. That is why it is so important to make good choices and new memories.
My thought process would be very different if I had made better choices. But I wouldn't be as wise now if I had made all the right choices.
So maybe that is the answer:
Make good choices with the wisdom you have at the time.
As you age make sure you learn from your bad choices and become older and wiser.
It is a long road to recovery.
I can see pain if look back and listen, my mind is full of regret and decision
Oh how I wish I had done things so different, to keep me sane and in a good position
Nothing can change…. what I choose in the moment, nor can I lose…… that memory of torment
I climb the walls as I sit here and ponder. All the dumb moves I made in this life
My mind is scrambled and fried with confusion, trying to run from the tiny explosion
But I know…. I am safe and not to fear, and I know…. Cause you’re there
So believe and stop what you’re doing
Think about the now and that you’re not now drowning
It is a mind game sent in to distort you
Memories are made by your choice and bestow you
You are the one who can calm me and guide me, you are my hope my wish and my dream
Oh how I wish you were here with me now, complete me and guide me and strengthen the team
How I dream…. Of our place and the feeling that taunts me, and the knowledge that you are always beside me
One day I know where I’ll be, that’s together, with you by my side where you’ve always been
Memories faded and peace as a picture, of mountains and trees as we sit there together
And I know…. That I’m safe, you are here, all is well, there’s no fear, with you now, so don’t leave, let’s stay, just you and me loosing ourselves in this dream we believe
So believe and stop what you’re doing
Think about the now and that you’re not now drowning
It is a mind game sent in to distort you
Memories are made by your choice and bestow you
Come on and join this dream and my new memory
You are the one I trust and want everyday
Touch me now and provide my fantasy
Take me to heaven and guide my eternity
I am lost in your soul and divinity
Blinded by all your sweet love and ability
You move in ways that provide all my purity
Giving my day and my mind stability
You are the one, who brings all serenity….
My days tranquillity
In this dream…
And this memory…
You are there…
forever
