I've had allot of time on my hands lately. Time alone with not much to do. Time to reflect in the early morning hours. When you're put in this position, you're faced with all those old deamons, can't help but to be. So I've been exercising them. Some of them have really gotten buff let me tell ya!
 
But something odd, something I didn't expect. I know there are some things I'm never going to get rid of, they'll always be there to haunt me. But as they've been getting strong, I've been getting stronger. The more they rear their ugly heads, the better I've gotten at beating them back down, putting them in their place, mastering my own deamons.
 
I guess I really don't want to get rid of them all. They're part of what makes me who I am. They remind me of how I got here, lest I ever forget. They keep me humble. They show me how far I've come. They scream out what I should do that I didn't, what I didn't do that I should.
 
Yeah, I'll keep exercising my deamons. And I'll keep being stronger than them.

    good for you trav!  only when we look the ugly truth in the eye can we overcome and learn from our demons.

    Exercising them is much better than running from them or ignoring them, that's for sure.

    well, maybe in excercising them you've worn them out a little too :)

    I aspire one day, to deal with my demons as you are with yours. =) 
    This is rather inspirational for me really, something that I think I really needed to read. It'll give me something to think about the next chance I have where all I can do is just think. 
    Thank You. =)

    Those crazy buggers like to keep you on your toes, don't they?  I wrestled most of mine to the ground over the years and made them say "uncle!"  The few I am still battling sit smuggly around me, waiting for me to look weak enough for a meal.  But I totally get your comment that they sort of "make up who you are."  And they are yours to destroy or keep letting them come to the party.

    Its either that or ignore them.....and you can only bury your head in the sand for so long before they consume you! Keep on exercising them....show them who's the boss...the mac daddy....

    Slap em around and show them whos boss mate. They can only show themselves if you give them the power.

    If you keep exercising your demons they will get too strong for you.  What you really want to do is exorcise them.  :-)

Comment on "Exercising deamons"

deamons demons the-returns (Click to add tags below)

(Separate tags using commas, for example: New York, dating, vegetarian)

They say that using witchcraft, ouija boards, and tarot cards can open one up to demonic forces. I think that could explain the mind reading attacks and the chaos in my life. Is it all real or just going on because a part of me still believes in these...
