Chance Remnants

What remains after significant change isn’t absence, rather a spreading of self into previously uncharted space. While past convictions don’t disappear, they soften—their boundaries dissolving into potential pathways, each echoing with unrealized experiences. This redistribution of inner life creates an unstable balance where even the most distant recollections retain power; recognizing this inherent instability demands we consider its ethical implications. Indeed, accepting such decay suggests that memory isn't simply lost but continually reshaped by ongoing existence.
