.:: Tell Your World ::.

There comes a time when you notice

that you know nothing of this world.

I wonder how its actually possible to be able

to have grown up the way I did,

being so oblivious to the world around me.

I wonder.

How many things happened while I was

ignoring those papers?

How many calamities stroke?

How many lives did those take?

How are people really like out there?

Really, it only hit me recently

how much I've been missing out on what's

happening to the world while I've been living

a sheltered life on my own.

A tsunami occurring in another country

used to be just sad news to me,

but now it is suddenly of great concern.

Because I have people I know and cherish 

in those countries and I worry for their safety.

Some financial crisis years ago

was of little importance to me,

but since taking Economics, its weightage

has been more substantial and noticeable.

The organisations around me,

used to be just labels I spelt for fun as

I walked/ drove past them,

but now not only do I find myself not only acknowledging

their presence, I'm actually applying for scholarships from

them if I ever want to have a shot at studying overseas.

Suddenly the world seems to have grown.

No. I think I have grown.

The child shell that held me in can no

longer accommodate me.

And so, here's me, taking my first step in the world.

I want to learn now.

So Dear God, teach me. help me. let me learn.

Tell me about your world,

the world that I've been missing out on.


"The things you want to tell us,
The sounds you want to reach us,
Those many points become a line
And echo far into the distance.
The words you want to tell us,
The sounds you want to reach us,
Those countless lines become a loop,
Connecting everything, no matter where you are"
-Tell Your World, Hatsune Miku
