The Kirito of Life

Passing through the skies, hopeful and bright. Starting over doesn’t seem the same but familiar. Starting from scratch or starting from experience. It definitely feels different this time around. When you start from scratch, you start from a place of relearning and establishing the same habits and boundaries that wasn’t successful. Starting from experience is like finishing a game and starting hard mode with all the weapons and skills you have already acquired. You start the world from the same spot but now you have the tools and knowledge make it through and defeat the enemies who are stronger than before.

The Kirito of life is just that. The anime “Sword Art Online” is a Japanese tv show where the main character “Kirito” is a gamer who had early access to a game so when he starts and nationwide game, he already has an advantage by keeping the skills and knowledge he has already received from playing the game before anyone else. In life, we have to go through trials and tribulations to understand and make it through the world around us. Sometimes the people we leave behind tend to be the same and trigger the little parts that was put in the back burner.

Back to a place so familiar seems like a release when you get to breathe again. Reality kicks in when you have to remind yourself of the purpose and boundaries that came from returning to a place so old. No need to believe you’re going back to old habits when you know things are different. You paid attention and became aware of the things that went down behind the scenes. Stronger than ever, motions are put into actions to make your dreams more of a reality. Sacrifices should be made and sometimes you just have to get out of your way and get stuff done.

Stuck in silence questioning reality. Wondering what is true and what is dichotomy. Separate from socials, tired of life. Finding peace and comfort is just a soft lie. One or the other you struggle to find one, now looking for a one, to start again, and begin. You look across at a person in front of you. Average height and lean with slender figure. Orange bag and purple jacket. They peak your interest, and yet you stay resistant to conversation. You do the up and down to gauge the personnel. You find inner confidence in the belief that something could happen.

They step out to exit their lane. Moment is over. You pass by the emotions and keep it moving. You delete the apps after constant sight of disappointment. You wonder if this is how people move on or go through a recovery of a past experience. Living in the now you acknowledge the tricks and tips that you have earned and you just feel the need to just breathe. Do nothing and just lay there because you felt nothing but tired and freedom of peace. Free from the me.

A straight face hidden in big black glasses. Hiding in plain sight. Showed from the world while spying through the skies. You wander in hopes for something bright. You look at the sky with sorrow sad eyes. Checking your goals and seeing reality, sacrifices to be made so your growth is bloomed and not fade. Moments of silence to be alone with your thoughts. This Kirito of Life is what will level you up. Grind the grind, tooth the tooth, and have yourself a seat because the program has shifted, you’re the MC and the movie is about to begin.
