Return of the MAC

 Blessed be

Velumbound 

This transmission explores the psychological and spiritual impact of memory, past relationships, and integrating the self. 

It frames the "ghosts" of our past not as literal hauntings, but as internal, structural components of our own identity.

In networking, a MAC address is a permanent, unique identifier assigned to a specific piece of hardware. 

By applying this to memories, the speaker suggests that every past relationship (lover, friend, enemy) leaves a permanent, indelible, digital-like imprint on our soul. 

Maybe now, you have my MAC address. 

You cannot delete the address; 

It remains a fixed node in your internal network.

Let us begin. 

Do ghosts from old lovers

Family 

Friends or enemies from

the past

Haunt you 

If you revisit them

In dreams

Some ask

In this Great Silence 

When we hear them

Call for guidance 

From The Great In-Between

Well

All memories carry

A spiritual MAC address too

MAC addresses to awaken sleeping giants

And those sleeping giants ain't compliant

They like to run riot

Inserting themselves on all your conscious shelves

Screaming for attention 

"Come See Me"

And visit you must 

For all those people and encounters 

Whatever they be

Whether good or bad

Have made you who you are 

At any given moment

So if ghosts visit

Just think of them as parts of you

Components 

Now turned to dust

Who once helped to shape your worldview 

As you evolved and renewed

So

Just smile and say

I see you
