I have seen myself change.
I used to remember being so much more of a free spirit then I see myself as today.
It's an odd sort of feeling knowing that something is different and yet I cannot place the exactness of the change or whether it's positive or negative.
I feel as though my point in time is on an edge. I'm not falling or flying and yet still moving forward (kind of like turning on a coldplay song and instantly feeling as if you are moving through space). It has a sense of dangerousness to it that I cannot explain. It is like being on a cliff and looking down after telling yourself you weren't going to look down and then the thought runs across your mind that if you were to take just an inch of a step forward you would be free falling at the increasing speed of 9.8 m/s2 but your body won't let you move because your frozen solid in place, tensing every muscle in your body to ensure that you won't slip, only your eyes are still moving in a constant sweep trying to visualize the entire scene in front of you, below you, above you, beyond you, your life, your future, your options, your choices, your beliefs, your desires, all in front of you... and then you realize you are not breathing.
breathe.
I have seen myself change.
