The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again 

The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again — The psychological truth that “once is a habit”.

A drug addict can easily tell you this. “Once” can become is a habit!

And, The Ghost of the Past Always Want to Live Again.

People seldom apply this principle to psychology and our addictions to particular: habits and people. It’s difficult leave: relationships; jobs; emotional habits; bouts of depression; and situations.

The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again and reassert themselves.

A failed New Years Resolution is another example of this.

There are also pop cultural references to this “haunting” aspect of human nature.

Curtis “50 Cents” James Jackson says:

…I got the magic stick
I know if I can hit once, I can hit twice
I hit the baddest chicks
Shorty, don't believe me, then come with me tonight
And I'll show you magic (What? What?)
Magic
I got the magic stick…

The idea being that though it may be hard to “open a door” it’s almost impossible to “close it”.

On a Whiter note, The Indigo Girls sing:

…And there's not enough room
In this world for my pain
Signals cross and love gets lost
And time passed makes it plain
Of all my demon spirits
I need you the most
I'm in love with your ghost

People say in a self-comforting way that there are ghosts; but, I say: we are all haunted by our habits from which our total character is derived; and, that The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again and Again and Again.

Boo!

Why, I gotta do all that!!!!?????

Best friend patiently like he’s talking to a two year old:
The Ghost of the Past Want to Live Again — believe me, I know because I’ve been there. I also know that you won’t listen — because I didn’t, either.
