The Emotional History Tour

So there i am, standing at the bus stop this morning with my coffee, having a little Q&A conversation with myself. Im thinking: i havent blogged recently, and i should probably get around to it, maybe spend a bit of time today working on a post. What am i gonna post? Nothing of great import to say and dont want to waste people’s time.... um, how about i interview myself and post that. Something general about how life is going, uni, folks, that kind of thing, a bit of an overview to let people know that despite sometimes using this blog to explore the underlying emotional issues in the same way that i would in a diary (except with better editing and comments), im actually doing really well and feeling pretty happy.

And then i saw a girl i think i used to know, and it totally knocked me sideways.

What do you do when you come face to face with an old mistake, the biggest mistake you ever made, the mistake that changed everything?
And she never knew why, tho she maybe knows by now the extent of the damage i did. Is an explanation due? Would explaining be constructive or destructive? Maybe its all just drama and history and...skip-overable...? Or better to leave her alone?

Was that tall, beautiful girl with the open face, huge smile, adventurous spirit and a heart as unwise as my own really the same girl i saw leaving a shop in a wheelchair? There was a moment of certainty! Yes! Just 2 meters away! And then the chair, her hair, the cheekbones, i wasnt so sure. Was i looking to disbelieve or confirm? I turned away, safe in my dark glasses and headphones, and then she was gone.

Shes been on my mind, the bus to uni goes past the street she used to live on. Adelaide is small. And its all good.
