Angel of Mercy:

I wonder what would happen if everyone in the world suddenly forgot everything in their past. 100% erasure of all past deeds and happeneings. All good and bad memories, everything. I think it would be interesting to witness such a miracle. There are so many people in the world absolutly hung up on the details of their past and how it has affected, ruined and twisted their present that they can no longer look forward. I suppose to some degree it makes sense that people concentrate on the past, after all its the only thing we seem to be able to see so clearly. Even our present seems foggy, and the future? Even more clouded. People who live in the past sacrifice thier future with fear, regret and self flagellation. I would like to be the Angel of Mercy, the gift of god whos power bestowed is the life saving ability to sever ones self from thier past completly. A great humanitarian who's mere touch could free a tortured soul, setting them free and able to live a normal life with a brighter future. Ok, well, I'd take that OR the ability to make thier heads explode.. because hey, who doesnt want that ability. No, I'm not getting soft on you, dont worry. But it does sadden me to think of the wonderful things people could do with their lives if only the turned their heads around and stopped looking back and started looking forward. Case in point, my friend Matt. Ex-Navy seal, cant get images of people hes killed with his bare hands out of his head, loses sleep, never had a lasting relationship and hes resigned himself to the fact that "some people are just meant to be alone." Fiance cheated on him and left him for another man, been burnt in every way possible by women in his life and lost his mother to cancer. All these pains all these fears... he is truly a crippled human being. But he could live a life with a future if he could only look forward. Ok, that's enough sappy bullshit for today. Peace.
