I realized today, after two days, just how powerful a psychologically charged a symbol can be. I had tried to do without something for the past two days, and even though I had tried to do without it before, I could not do it.
The something has significant meaning beyond the psychological portion of its existence, but it seems to have become part of me in a more elemental way than I had ever realized.
So is it possible, even probable, that an item can take on a brand new meaning and just erase its original meaning? If so, then the something is no longer a symbol of what it was originally and instead just an article of me.
(I do not expect anyone to really understand this blog, but it was something I needed to get off my chest.)
