None taken. Not a ghost, though...well, that is the common term people refer to when they see me. I'm not dead, though. Not really. Maybe, in a way, but...not quite.

Back home, supposedly I'm...well, not living any more. As far as someone says. So, I am a sort of...paradox. I am here, living, but back home, I am not. Odd. So odd. Don't feel dead, but...who really knows what that feels like?

no subject
Don't think you are dead, however. But what do I know...?
