“As I got older, I realised that there were no real winners
And there were no real losers in psychological warfare –
But there were victims.
And there were students
It wasn’t David versus Goliath;
It was a pendulum, eternally swayin’ from the dark to the light
And the more intensely that the light shone, the darker the shadow it cast
It was never really a battle for me to win.
It was an eternal dance
And like a dance, the more rigid I became, the harder it got
The more I cursed my clumsy footsteps, the more I struggled
So I got older and I learned to relax
And I learned to soften and that dance got easier
It is this eternal dance that separates human beings from angels, from demons, from gods
And I must not forget,
we must not forget
That we are human beings.”
– Ren, “Hi Ren”
