Waking up in the past
The wind blows a time and fragrance into my space and in my mind I travel the course of my entire life in just moments. Saturated with the emotional presence of every life changing element I went through wakes me up and I have so many new questions. How dangerous is it to revisit things I've already lived. Is the peace I've established in jeopardy and where do I go from here. Is my mind blown.
