The Times They Are A-Changin'



Tothian has been banned, and Superhero and Silver Sentinel have both left the therlsh.net. It is an interesting day and age in which we live when we miss the presence of people whom we have never met. Now, this is a bit of a lie on my account, but the majority of the people here have never met these people in what we call "real life." Their existence has only ever been relayed through code, waves, and cables. Technically speaking, they could entirely be figments of our imagination. They are, however, not.

We are all people. We have lives that intersect with so many paths of life that we could never hope to fathom them. The roads we individually take all lead different places, but often times on those roads you have company. This company changes over time, as new paths are found and forged, and others are ended. In our dedication to our own path, we must no forget the roads we have crossed, and the paths that have lead us here. And above all, we must never forget the people who walked them.

Tothian will be back, and both Silver Sentinel and Superhero are still very much around and active. We sometimes forget about the world outside our digital confines, and we must realize that while in these hollow halls of numbered words and unknown friends, the person on the other side is still just that: a person. Choose to interact, choose to engage, choose to live. There is so much time spent in our lives that could be spent doing something better, and even that time can be found to be for a better cause latter. It is our manifest as humans to exercise that choice to the fullest extent.

Times change, and so do we. In this, our time of greater exposure and new faces, in this our time of experienced grounding and life fulfilling, in this our time of reaching the end and ending, we are all together. So let us be.

  1. Mr. Jack,

    You should ask Superhero for a copy of the video that he did to this same wonderful song.

    Don't fret too much over these losses or exchanges. I've seen and endured worse over time. The RLSH movement will still be the same, but only in slightly different places.

    All My Best,
    Geist

  2. Thank you my friend. (^^) I know it is not really something to fret about all that much, I just had been thinking on it. A lot has changed and still is changing. I am excited to see how, and I also want to acknowledge what has been.

    Do you have any ideas where we could be going with this whole thing of ours?
