RE: Qurator's Mischievous Mondays | The Sleepwalker's Diary
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
It was late at night and I was sleepy, but I needed to organize things for my first day at college. While rummaging through some piles of books in my room, I found a seemingly hidden diary.
When I opened it, I realized that it was my handwriting, but I didn't remember writing those things. Nobody comes into my room, I've lived alone for years. Leafing through the pages, things started to get strange. The diary was full of drawings and symbols I'd never seen, with notes about the search for answers. Answers to what?
I read on and found accounts of dialogues with unknown people, but which touched on subjects such as dreams, fears and hopes. They sounded like parts of my personality or forgotten memories. Was I going mad? Or were my dormant personalities waking up while I slept?
At the end of the diary, there was an outline of my sleepwalking self's plans and desires: to learn a new skill, to travel and to reconnect with someone from the past. These aspirations reflected a quest for growth and self-discovery. Could the fact that I was going to college have awakened an awareness in my subconscious?
After reading it, I realized that those revelations were just an opportunity. The diary became a guide for me to explore new possibilities in life. And so, the next day, I went to college determined to change and listen to what I wanted to tell myself. Of course, it all makes sense now because I always woke up more tired than I was going to sleep.
