RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW

Protect the Light (灯を護る) - It's from Spy x Family Season 3 (Anime)

Its related to the current part of the story: where some of the history of the world is being told, about war and death around one character as the backstory is being revealed, and is contrasted by the fragile happiness of the story's present, of the kids of the story's present where there is no war, but the war is seemingly on the brink of happening again. (Its the best I can explain without doing spoilers)

Reminds me of my own story, the sad part of it that is. I'm that character that had a fucked up history. I constantly imagine the other timeline where things were better.

I had sporatic moments of happiness, but its overshadowed by the constant adversity that I faced both within the family and threats from outside including from peers, adults, and even governments.

I constantly try to remember what happiness felt like, its I can't even remember, all the memories are just conflicts. A graveyard of all the fragments of my innocent soul being shattered by this cruel world. One shard at a time, the soul breaks part by part until the soul of the innocent childhood is destroyed, all that is left is sadness.

This song makes me emotional, makes me grieve about the part of my sould that was destroyed by this world.
