it isnt possible in my opinion to define ourselves, or be defined, but, what if you tried to put together a package of what is closest to your heart, what makes you, you.
....so many things, i cannot even think of what i would put in my package. here is what i have thought of so far;
-my writing/poetry
-a mixed c.d. of my most important and cherished songs
-my favourite book
-my favourite film
-a bottle of rain
-a photograph of me & my lost love
-poetry from e.e. cummings
-a pack of cigarettes
-prozac
-tea & coffee
-one of my diaries
-daises
-my favourite incense " Nag Champa "
-favourite piece of clothing
-photos of my cats
-a painting from my best-friend
-an old love letter/letter from a beloved friend
-photos of family & friends
another idea, i think we should all write letters to ourselves and bury them, and dig them up 5 years from the day we write them; how apparent the changes in our lives and souls would be, how apparent who we were then would be. like a message in a bottle, only for ourselves.
have any of you done anything like this before?
anyway, it will be interesting to see what you guys think.
(i heard this discussed somewhere before, and i have been thinking about it since then...)
