Prophecy

Written by Jacob Ibrag

‘Empty and meaningless, and it’s empty

and meaningless that it’s empty and meaningless.’

I get that. It’s exhilarating. Detaching from the past, letting

yourself free. It’s necessary, especially if you think you’ve made

some mistakes. Yet you can’t read books with a blindfold on.

Empty and meaningless until you paint its meaning.

Make it yours. Self manifesting prophecy.

    Detaching from the past can only deter you from coping with the issues thad had “caused” your life, you must find the exact point when your life “went wrong”, learn from it (reliving through those most painful moments…), and breakdown, breakthrough, breakdown, and breakthrough, as many times as it will take, then, you will, walk out of the shadows of your past…
