We are Electric

Fellow DotA players, this article is for you.
We are in breaking generation of electric change.
I am truly in a breaking generation of electrifying change. I changed a lot. If my old self would meet me now, we wouldn’t recognize each other. My old self used to love the Church. Even my first childhood dream is to be a priest.
It is on my fifth grade that I questioned the existence of God in my world. I became ashamed to myself back then for even thinking the thought of it. When entering the university, I met people who have the same question as mine. I realized that I am not the only one that questions the mere existence of it.

There is nothing wrong in questioning. We are not in the Dark Ages anymore where the bastards of the Catholic Church were burned alive during a public burning in a plaza.
Ever wonder why the Philippines is poor but the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines isn’t. If I were you, give your weekly indulgence to the poor instead of giving it to the church. Every time would scrap ahead, every time in your mind. I hate the concept of time. I hate the idea that there is something you cannot control; something that is universal and constantly changing. I wish I have the special skill of Faceless Void. Chronosphere is very much handy for us, college students. But when I was given a chance to use Chrono, I will not use it for school works. I will use it when my friends and I play DotA. School works can be done with a time frame, but friendly DotA competition is not. One hour means fifteen pesos so time is very important. I remember the time when we are so much addicted with DotA that we make it a point that every minute of every hour of every vacant period is not put into waste. Time is constant, and friendship is not. Time will come when your friends will not know you anymore because of lack of time for them. But the friends who never let go, that is the friendship built inside a Chronosphere. What proving to yourself and never losing control. I want to prove to myself that I will never lose control. Losing control over things lead me to suffering the consequences. I had the first blood of losing control back in high school. I lost control on myself. The hype of emotion lead me to suffering the cost until now. |
That is why I never want to be too attached to a person again. I once was, but she left the hell out from me when she chose someone else. I think she’s now happy in their relationship with that bastard. I know that her kind should not be trusted, but I did put my whole trust on her. Now, I am left with the thought of never trusting any person again except for my parents.
I have proven to her that I will live my life to the fullest without her. I remember she said “Sige, kaya mo yan,” during the times when I was saying goodbye to her. I don’t want to blame her for saying that because she’s too in love on another person for her to understand me. The way that she left me went to an ultra kill, but now, I have better control of myself. Just a piece of advice to my fellow comrades, girls want money and are always materialistic. Playing DotA is less expensive. So play DotA instead. Just move your body again, move your body and soul DotA is a representation of the never-ending conflict between good and evil--the scourge versus the sentinel. Choosing all-pick is enabling scourge and sentinel to use both houses. There are scourge heroes that side with the sentinel and vice versa. There are heroes that are originally in the bad side but are now defending the good. Like in the real world, there are people who were originally good and are only forced to do bad things. A lot of people are. People don’t know what good or evil is. For them, they will defend the principle that they think is right. The same principle that honed them into being what they currently are. |
People are always in the good side, and fighting to eliminate the evil, without even knowing which side that they are in.
The truth is, we are inside the DotA map: a 1v1, all-pick, only-mid game between God and Satan.

DotA nation is unstoppable, like Krobelus’ exorcism and Nevermove’s requiem. There are philosophies in life that only DotA players would know. There is a logical reasoning that only a player has. Non-players should envy us. We are genius. We are indestructible. We are Electric!
GG na, Sir!
