Almost

Anne Elliot- Book: Almost

Almost. Almost

How I hate that word and the way it defines me. Almost raped. Almost over it. Almost normal.  I can almost forget. Way worse, I can almost remember.

In the book written by Anne Elliot called “Almost” the girl has nightmares every certain amount of time due the almost rape she experienced when young. She is not allowed to have a normal life because of that traumatic event and instead of consuming the help provided, she decides to pretend that the help she received from the Psychologist  accomplished its purpose and helped her. She had a huge event in her life that did not let her move on with her own life.

Have you ever felt like there is something that can change your life and yet there is nothing really important. Like, there could be something huge but nothing happens and the time just passes by.

There is nothing big in my life, something that you can say is awesome. I’m just a normal girl that works everyday, reads books every once in a while, studies Psychology and that’s my everyday routine, the only unusual thing is that I enjoy watching anime or stuffs like that. Depending on the mood that I have, and what I’m listening at the moment, I imagine stories that could make me feel odd and someone will save me.

There is a song that I’m listening to lately called Aquarium and it has no lyrics, it’s just the music that expresses a desperation story, but also when I’m feeling happy it expresses the hope. I don’t know, that the magic of music, it means anything you want.

Sometimes I can imagine that my grandfather says that I have to marry some weird guy (like in the old movies? when there is a commitment or a debt to other family and the only way to pay it is the forced engagement) Well, I always think there is a girl out there that will say: “Hey let’s leave everything behind and start something new”  A we can start fresh somewhere far far away.

It’s the kind of thing you just start thinking without actually doing, and that’s fine because I love living within my own fantasies. Have you ever imagined something like that could happen? Someone who you loved in the past, regrets their decision and wants you back? What would you change, would you accept them? If there is something that you could change what would it be? Would you actually change it?

If I had the option to change something I would probably never change it, probably I wouldn’t make anything different because that made me who I am. But as I said, there is not such a huge life-changing fact that compromised my entire life.

About time travelling that is completely different. Probably I would save some money and go back in time to save my first dog, she died because I didn’t have money to pay the bills in the vet.
