It reminds me of an my favorite quote from a book.
"Mother is putting my new secondhand clothes in order. She prays now, she say I may learn in my own life, and away from home and friends, what the heart is and what it feels. Amen. So be it.
Welcome, O life! I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of experience and to forge in the smithy of my soul, the uncreated conscience of my race.
Old father, old artificer, stand me now and ever in good stead."
[i]An excerpt from James Joyce's [/i]
[i]Portrait of the artist as a young man[/i]
You now wish to look at Destiny keenly, but far away. In this context though, you are more dragged than exiting of your own free will.
You truly love the game, but leave you must, and leave you will, for anything but your desires, your reality, must stay far away to truly admire them.
I am also taking my leave for a while, getting the treasures and nothing more. I hope I hit close to home with this.
[spoiler]Heh, hours after I read that quote(high school, senior year by the way), the incompetent, shy kid I was died and I was born.
I still remember everyone asking what was wrong with me... cursed by such vivid images.[/spoiler]

Edited by Geofront Dragon: 2/22/2017 7:05:31 PM[quote]Let me try compressing this logic for a second. [i]You see a bird flying upside down. It is moving perfectly fine across the sky. Are you just looking at the bird incorrectly or is there something wrong with the bird?[/i] Now think about this. [b][i]You decide to throw a rock at the bird. You assume the bird is in the sky. Are you throwing a rock at a bird flying upside down, or are you throwing a rock down at the bird? [/i][/b] That should answer everything.[/quote] [quote]It is more than just perspective sir. Think deeply about the bird. It is doing what it does naturally. Even if every bird flies this way, they all feel a sense of being unique. Now think deeply about what you are trying to do to the bird sir. It is its nature to fly and you want to take it from him. The world lives on but what of the bird? What of you? Why did you throw the rock? ... Does it hit the bird? [spoiler]Were they affected by this update?[/spoiler] Do you hit the birds back? [spoiler]No longer using their previous weapons.[/spoiler] The wings? [spoiler]Less aerial flow, grounded. Juggarnaut, a prime example.[/spoiler] Just its foot? [spoiler]Immense camping, cannot move[/spoiler] Perhaps right in the head...[spoiler]Not able to adapt, failing in the utter confusion and lack of direction.[/spoiler] ... Do you hit its stomach?[spoiler]Not giving you this one, I trust you will figure it out.[/spoiler] Although complex, this all pertains to how certain people feel. Philosophy is a vital tool when understood and displayed professionally, which I would say that, but this is all self taught. I don't read other peoples thoughts, I make my world of thought.[/quote] That was a duscussion regarding the update. That is much deeper. I can go as deep as the ocean. This is nothing.

Quoting literature? You just made so many heads explode trying to comprehend what they were seeing, well done.

Joyce is tough sledding. Sometimes you can love something, but you can't live with it and let it be itself at the same time. So rather than try to change it, you love it enough to let it go. If I hadn't been in a relationship with a woman who forced me to make that same choice, I wouldn't have understood it either. We were an unhappy couple for a year. We've been good friends for twenty. The kind of friend who would come to your aid if you were in real trouble. Bungie is now forcing that same decision on me where pvp is concerned.

Thank you, wait their heads exploded, as in... they're dead? Uhh
-
Most people here probably don't know what a book is let alone Joyce lol
-
Yep, Joyce is quite something. I loved Dubliners extensively, especially the last short story with Gabriel Conrad. Other than that, Pride and Predjudice by Jane Austen is the pillar of my diction and improved fluency.

My goodness. You are magnificent

Edited by Geofront Dragon: 2/22/2017 6:42:43 AMHere is the introduction to my farewell. -------------------- "A world so cold and gray, no one to blame, what use is thy flame? Splinters of saphire, slits of oblivion, swallows revenge, devours hope. With such a clash of rifts, control is not salvaged, for our mayhem is only a skirmish, eliminated at the winds of time, by will's supremacy. Just a taste, the whole package is yet to come...

Nice *swoons*

How exotic. Lol

Yes, quite uncommon, but legendary!

O god 😂
