Unburdened

Tonight I removed the final artifact of the past that I carried with me. It was a small slip of paper, that was tucked into my wallet a long time ago.

 

It has survived everything I put my wallet through, even multiple soakings. Still, the scrap of notebook paper remained. Tonight though, I released it from its' home. It now will rest among other artifacts of the past and fond memories, in a drawer that exists solely for such things. It was perhaps the final stage in what has been a long process for me. A process that saw the birth of this blog and many other things, some yet to be seen.

I feel less weighted by it all now, though I do not know if that will correlate into feel better, but what is done is done and there is no turning back now. I will continue to keep up this blog, I have grown rather fond of it, but with any luck the post will be more pleasing to read. I type this for the first time, free of anything that binds me directly to my past and perhaps the future is bright, but it is far too early to tell for certain.
