Every incident in our life is a nail slammed into our track with one end of an elastic band attached to it. The other end of the elastic band gets attached to us, constantly pulling us back to where the nail is. Our whole life is an effort to leave the nails behind and move on.
At times, strong nails with strong bands constantly pull us back, make it hard for us to move on. The constant battling against the bands builds up heaviness in our chests. Scribbling down is a way to off load that certain heaviness and feel lighter, so we can continue the battle against the bands. It doesn’t really snap the band, nor does it make it more elastic. It just makes it a little easier to move on.
