When she turned around and saw the place she left for one last time, she saw the familiarity of it all. The walking away part. It was always full of shame and yet every time it felt new. As new as the habit itself. Oh yes, it definitely was a habit.
The walk always brought it more anger with it. As she made herself immune to the noises, stares, views, opinions and judgments, around her, she became more and more empty. You see, life force was used to build immunity. Staying immune mattered to live.
For a moment she wondered why was this walk full of shame? Isnt it as imaginary as the values, culture, integrity etc that other people believed in? Why should someone carry this imaginary burden?
An invisible angel smiled. The walk of shame was meant to remind one of their ego. And pride. Both of which are again imaginary and delicate. Very fragile. It was needed for human beings to go back to basics. Like she did periodically.
Walk of shame was filled with learnings that a body rejects. Walk of shame is a battle with death. What matters is that with the walk of shame, she bought some time for herself to live. All that matters is a few more moments to live.
