Then, what am I here for? 00:00:00
You are here for the next step in your adventure. 00:00:02
Feeling the music. 00:00:04
Feeling the music? 00:00:06
What adventure? 00:00:08
I'm feeling it. 00:00:10
I'm certain you know exactly what I mean by feeling it. 00:00:12
You mean internally? 00:00:14
I guess you could say like that, yes. 00:00:16
And how do you do that? 00:00:20
Well, let's see. 00:00:22
As you know, our music goes as such. 00:00:24
F, C, G, D, A, E, B. 00:00:26
Remember? 00:00:28
But that's not how it is in birds. 00:00:30
Yes, we are in this only once. 00:00:32
These letters obviously don't make just that one phrase. 00:00:34
Of course, our learnings of the same letters 00:00:38
can mean many different things. 00:00:40
I just don't see how this relates me to feeling the music. 00:00:42
Hold on, Aaron. 00:00:46
Imagine we take these same letters 00:00:48
and change its corresponding word. 00:00:50
For example, say, 00:00:52
and we are to change the phrase completely 00:00:54
by the meaning of such people and letters. 00:00:56
So far, 00:00:58
it makes sense. 00:01:00
Change the corresponding word 00:01:02
to create a new note. 00:01:04
But there are hundreds of thousands 00:01:06
of words that start with F. 00:01:08
Is it possible? 00:01:10
Let's change the letters to a topic 00:01:12
with actual meaning. 00:01:14
F shall now mean fear. 00:01:16
Fear? 00:01:18
Fear? 00:01:20
How did we go from joy-catcher values 00:01:22
and movements of birds to fear? 00:01:24
Are we crazy? 00:01:26
These new words will describe 00:01:28
how you will learn to feel the music. 00:01:30
Okay, what about C? 00:01:32
C will mean courage, 00:01:34
as it is well known 00:01:36
that the only way to help us feel 00:01:38
is through courage. 00:01:40
That makes sense. 00:01:42
What about G? 00:01:44
G describes grief. 00:01:46
Imagine an overload of courage 00:01:48
to the point where your ego 00:01:50
will overtake courage. 00:01:52
So, fear to courage to grief? 00:01:54
Yes, that is correct. 00:01:56
And following grief is a better dream, 00:01:58
which in this case would mean? 00:02:00
Determination? 00:02:02
Close, dreams. 00:02:04
A dream leads to dreams, 00:02:06
most of the time impossible ones, 00:02:08
but dreams nonetheless. 00:02:10
So, next up is A. 00:02:12
I'm going to guess it. 00:02:14
Aspiration? 00:02:16
Correct. Now can you tell me why? 00:02:18
Aspirations are basically synonyms. 00:02:20
Now, what about E? 00:02:22
It would have to be... 00:02:24
excellence? 00:02:26
No, unfortunately, 00:02:28
most of the time dreams and aspirations 00:02:30
don't always mean excellence. 00:02:32
In this case, 00:02:34
E means expectations. 00:02:36
And why is E expectations? 00:02:38
All aspirations always have 00:02:40
expectations, whether they are personal 00:02:42
or of others. 00:02:44
I see. It looks like 00:02:46
you have at least a word. 00:02:48
B. What starts with E 00:02:50
becomes after expectations. 00:02:52
Lastly, expectations leads to bargaining. 00:02:54
You will do anything in your power, 00:02:56
sell everything you own, 00:02:58
and change anything about you 00:03:00
to meet these expectations. 00:03:02
So, the whole cycle 00:03:04
goes from fear 00:03:06
to courage to grief 00:03:08
to dreams to aspirations 00:03:10
and finally to bargaining. 00:03:12
That is correct. 00:03:14
It is a cycle of desire, 00:03:16
and it must be shown through the singing. 00:03:18
A song with no emotion, 00:03:20
no ups and downs, 00:03:22
is not a song at all, 00:03:24
but more of a charm. 00:03:26
On the other hand, 00:03:28
a song with emotion 00:03:30
is a song worth singing 00:03:32
and listening to. 00:03:34
So, Aiden, I ask you, 00:03:36
what have you learned in today's lesson? 00:03:38
I've learned that singing 00:03:40
goes into the cycle of desire. 00:03:42
Thank you. 00:03:44
It's been two years 00:04:14
since Bobby's mother passed away. 00:04:16
She was a good lady, 00:04:18
and an even better mother, 00:04:20
but a silly one, too. 00:04:22
She's the one 00:04:24
that got cut into his children. 00:04:26
His father was different. 00:04:28
He was strict and stern, 00:04:30
but he supported the family 00:04:32
in all the lessons. 00:04:34
He was a good man. 00:04:36
He was a good man. 00:04:38
He was a good man. 00:04:40
He supported the family 00:04:42
in all the lessons, including me. 00:04:44
You see, he... 00:04:46
This was my brother, 00:04:48
Mr. Thomas. 00:04:50
Now, I think you can respect 00:04:52
Bobby right now, 00:04:54
because he passed away. 00:04:56
Mr. Thomas. 00:04:58
Hi, Mr. Langston. 00:05:02
Thank you, 00:05:04
I'm glad you're here. 00:05:06
How was your day today? 00:05:08
I was doing pretty good during the day. 00:05:10
Bobby's getting number one in the district. 00:05:12
Oh, that's great. I'm sure you can just win. 00:05:14
Of course. 00:05:16
I think it's only as good as a Superstar. 00:05:18
Amazing, isn't it? 00:05:20
Bobby's amazing. 00:05:22
Well, yes, now, 00:05:24
we've got some serious talking to do. 00:05:26
Yes? 00:05:28
But the game... 00:05:30
Yes? 00:05:32
Was... 00:05:34
Was what? 00:05:36
Anything about that? 00:05:38
Oh, I'm cool. 00:05:40
But now, yeah, 00:05:42
what was his name again? 00:05:44
Anthony? 00:05:46
Anthony. And no, sadly, 00:05:48
I was really hoping he'd be there. 00:05:50
I did text him, asking if he was going 00:05:52
to the game, but apparently, 00:05:54
his phone didn't even get it. 00:05:56
Oh. 00:05:58
How do you know his phone 00:06:02
didn't get the message? 00:06:04
He didn't say delivery. 00:06:06
Once the message has been sent, 00:06:08
this time, he didn't answer it that night. 00:06:10
I can always give his parents a call. 00:06:12
Talk to them, it's beautiful. 00:06:14
No, no, please don't. 00:06:16
Then, he will know I really like him, 00:06:18
and I just don't know if he's ready 00:06:20
to take that next step. 00:06:22
So, you think he's in a relationship 00:06:24
with you and doesn't know about it? 00:06:26
Yes. 00:06:28
Oh, boy. 00:06:30
It will all work out in the end. 00:06:32
That's... 00:06:34
pretty right. 00:06:36
Don't worry. 00:06:38
He's a nice kid, and funny too. 00:06:40
It seems like he's always happy at school. 00:06:42
Don't get me wrong, I try to be as positive 00:06:44
as I can because, you know, 00:06:46
but I still have my dumb days. 00:06:48
He doesn't. 00:06:50
Don't feel like you're nauseous yet, that isn't healthy. 00:06:52
I know, and I'm sure he knows that as well. 00:06:54
He just probably just doesn't have anything to be sad about. 00:06:56
Everyone has something to be sad about. 00:06:58
It's okay, he'll cheer me right up when I'm there. 00:07:00
And if it's the off chance he did, 00:07:02
I know you'll be right there to help him. 00:07:04
That's right, I've always felt you're right. 00:07:06
Thank you, but don't worry. 00:07:14
No, no, wait. 00:07:16
I may be in my fifties, 00:07:18
but I'm no senior citizen yet. 00:07:20
Okay. 00:07:22
Alright. 00:07:32
Awesome. 00:07:34
Oh my god! 00:08:02
I broke my phone today. 00:08:06
There sure as hell was a reason for doing so, 00:08:08
but 00:08:10
that comes later in the story. 00:08:12
After English class, 00:08:14
I couldn't help but wonder what I was going to do 00:08:16
for this assignment. 00:08:18
Of course, at first it seemed obvious 00:08:20
to me that I should do something funny. 00:08:22
That's my day job, isn't it? 00:08:24
To be the funny kid, 00:08:26
to make others laugh 00:08:28
whether he at or with me. 00:08:30
So, my primary thought for something along 00:08:32
the comedic theme was 00:08:34
laughter is always the best medicine. 00:08:36
But then, 00:08:38
Mr. Foxworth hit me. 00:08:40
I want the skeletons in your closet 00:08:42
to peek through the gap of society's doors. 00:08:44
And then, it suddenly 00:08:46
came clear to me. The divide between 00:08:48
whether to take a minimalist and weak approach 00:08:50
or a thoughtful, serious approach became wider. 00:08:52
And all feelings lead towards serious. 00:08:54
So, that's what I did. 00:08:56
I dove into the depths of my mind and soul 00:08:58
and did some deep thinking. 00:09:00
None of the other students 00:09:02
knew that I could be sad. 00:09:04
Not ever. 00:09:06
The truth is, it's all a mask. 00:09:08
One thing a mask does best 00:09:10
is cover scars. 00:09:12
And, well, I've accumulated many scars 00:09:14
across the years. 00:09:16
My father abandoned me when I was three, 00:09:18
only to be followed with my mother becoming alcoholic. 00:09:20
Since then, 00:09:22
I've always kind of been on my own. 00:09:24
I usually spend most of my time 00:09:26
in school or here, 00:09:28
in my room, with nothing but 00:09:30
silence and a mirror. 00:09:32
Silence is dangerous. 00:09:34
A mirror is vicious. 00:09:36
The two together, 00:09:38
well, 00:09:40
that's what 00:09:42
led to my phone breaking. 00:09:44
I threw it at my mirror, 00:09:46
which is now broken. 00:09:48
Just perfect, right? 00:09:50
A shattered beat-up mirror only to reflect 00:09:52
a beat-up scarred image of yourself back at you. 00:09:54
Needless to say, 00:09:56
there are scars on my mirror. 00:09:58
