Sometimes I feel like I spend ever day searching for a theme. I like to find themes in my day-to-day life. It helps me see the bigger picture, and it helps me think deeper. I hear it in music, read it in books, see it in theatre, smell it in the air, feel it at the edge of my fingertips.
And the theme recently is what we are. What i'm made of. I was at work enjoying my book and it was silly, but it was talking about Unraveling. Making me wonder how memories are made, and if I was unraveled, what pieces of string would be left for people to put together. In the Avengers (lol) a comment was made that reminded me of this unraveling. "Do you know what it is like to be unmade?"
Un-made
Unraveled.
Un.
We all really do have souls, pieces of memories all tied together that create who we are. What we are made of. Raw emotion tied into feelings and thoughts.. hopes and dreams. God gives a string, and we begin to create intricate knots. We create our lives. In the hunger games Finnick ties and unties knots. It helps keep him focused. In more of a deeper sense I feel he is trying to untie memories, and retie them just how he wants. He focuses on the present, on what he can do to change the future. The only thing in our grasps.
Sometimes we all feel unraveled. We question our existence. We question our desires. We question who we are, who we are supposed to be. If we focus on tying the knots, focus on what we can do now, not what we could've done. We will all tie ourselves back together.
