Musings and revelations created by me, Si_Phi, on my misguided adventure through life.

Si.
The title of my story would be one word. Something simple, yet intriguing. Hopefully not something creepy like 'Dracula.' I think I'd aim for something like C.S. Lewis' Perelandra, the title of the second novel in his space trilogy. Named for the planet in which a fight against a dark, new world order takes place. Yet, now that I think about it, my life hasn't exactly been a fight against evil at every turn.
The story of my life is hard to sum in a single word. But I think I'd choose the first two letters of my first name and simply call it 'Si.' Period is included. My life has been adventurous, yes, and it has been hit with tragedy, but I would not call my life story a tragedy or a series of unfortunate events. Rather, my life is simply a tale of my growth, as a person and as a ponderer, with setbacks along the way. There are things that make myself unique, such as the instruments I play and how I play them, the thoughts that occasionally skip the filter in my head and rumble and jump off the tips of my teeth. But there are other things that I do not know yet, as I write my story. I don't know if I will die next week, I don't know if I will live to see the end of the universe. I don't know if I will fall in love or die a hermit. Though being a hermit may be cool for a few months. That is why the story my life is only titled with two letters. It is incomplete, and to know the rest would be a spoiler that I could not share.
