The Ghosts and The Angels


I was tagged in a note some days back and there was one option where I had to write about what I think of my past and there I had written that I don’t care about it…but after that so many things from the past came back haunting me for many hours.

I didn’t want to categorize my memories as good and bad as I think memories are only memories they are neither good nor bad; it’s our experience which is good and bad and our feelings of being happy and sad about them, so I categorized them as the ghosts and the angels of the past. I know many of my friends are not going to agree with me on the categorization which I am going to do the next.

All the memories related to my (best) friends come under The Ghosts category and the memories related to some (beep beep) people come under The Angels category. The reasons:

Good friends are difficult to find and when you find them they stick to you like ghosts. They follow you everywhere you go and even if they are not there, you will always feel haunted by their presence. They will emerge like a ghost from nowhere to get you back on the track and it’s really difficult to get past these ghosts. The events that made you happy are also like ghosts as whenever they come back to you, they make you feel nostalgic.

The (beep beep) people are like Angels, they don’t bother you that much with their presence; they come, do their work and leave you once their work is done. I don’t have much to talk about the angels because I find it difficult to talk about them as I am almost indifferent to them.

So all of us care about these so called ghosts and angels but we prefer not admitting it.
