Memories Are That Way

"Now, women forget all those things they don't want to remember, and remember everything they don't want to forget. The dream is the truth. Then they act and do things accordingly."
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God

This quote speaks to me in so many ways. I spent a decade remembering everything I chose to remember and forgetting everything that was too painful to live with. I thought I was following my heart but was only living bound by false hope. Thankfully, I woke up realized I could once again be alive. With bags packed you moved me to home, helped me find my way out of the projects and back toward the pyramids. I try now to live with both the good and the bad and no longer live inside of a nightmare. Dreams are good only when you don't make your reality. Everyday I wake up and try to live what I only used to dream.
