What are you waiting for?
In one's daily trials and travails, one is beset and haunted by various ghosts.
Most of the time its the ghosts of our past, Is what is happening now going to be a repeat performance of the past. The ghosts of fear, the ghosts of doubts, both cause us to hesitate and second guess our every action. The ghosts of the present confound us even more than those of the past. The ghosts of potential can drive us to ruin, not to mention the Seven Sins pulling us in their directions. Also the ghosts yet to be have a little grasp upon us as well. How do we measure up in the eyes of others and How do we measure up to what we see of ourselves being farther down the river of time. Ghosts of Desires. Ghosts of Pain. Ghosts of Loss. Every single ghost wants its place in the sun, its fifteen minutes to shine, its pound of flesh.
Some people consider all of this spectral cacophany, normal. What if though instead of the pleading and yelling of all of these spectres, there is nothing. What if the ghosts couldn't lay claim to you without angering all of the rest. Each ghost trumped by another with an equal claim. If this is rare and far from the norm does the one with the Tormented Ghosts lack anything that the ones that are pulled by their tribe of spirits? Or does everyone that has their ghosts decide to make the one without an outcast or pariah to the rest of the world? Is not hearing their subtle comments and pleadings allow you to hear what the soul have to say?
Or are the ghosts not tormented with these rare individuals but acting in concert to better affect change on the universe or our world as we see it? Are the ghosts Protectors and Defenders? Teachers and Scholars? Knights and Mystics? All to make us the best we can be with what we are dealt in the world. Who's to say...
