Everyone lies. I just never understood how much. Just learning basic things to look for, only scratching the surface of this field, I have already seen so much- more than I needed to or wanted to.
I can see a couple where the girlfriend is cheating. I can see teachers who praise their students but feel only disgust. I can see a guy about to start a fight with his friend. I can see nervousness and shame in lecturers and wonder why.
What’s worse than seeing now, is knowing how much I’m not seeing. It makes you wonder- what else are they hiding? Was what they just said a lie (true most of the time) and why are they lying to you? Who can you trust to be honest with you? Did someone just see through you? Do they know your secrets?
It’s a headache to think about.
Today, I know I left something for the world, no matter how small or insignificant. I gave the world something that over 100,000 people heard.
Maybe you remember a post on this blog from years and years ago- http://ren000.wordpress.com/2007/10/26/to-zanarkand/
Well, those lyrics will now never die with this blog, or with me. I searched To Zanarkand on youtube today, just looking in hope that Square Enix gave it official lyrics. To my amazement, I found videos claiming they had lyrics. Imagine my surprise when I listened and recognized my own lines. I found one after another after another. I saw one of the videos ranked, another liked by over 900 people, and that feeling is something new. Something amazing.
There may be more, but just the fact that I’ve heard this many is overwhelming. Thank you, everyone. What started just from a song inspiring me to prose turned into so much more than I ever imagined.
