In Memoriam

Start to play the game in memoriam. Fabulous and fantastic. In a mystery-thriller scenario to solve the puzzle to track down a serial killer who is responsible for missing persons.

The feeling, however, upon playing the game, is about the intriguing and captivating character of knowledge. As the puzzle involves several branches of esotericism, the search for relevant knowledge and information on the net comes across several pages written in languages other than English. This experience only reinforces my eagerness to recapture my French study which has stopped for quite a long time.

Human knowledge is always appealing to my love. Yet one gets only to know that knowledge cannot be reached without certain skills in languages. Reading those arcane letters either of Greek, Latin, or of non-English languages, I cannot help feeling helpless in not being able to get down to the facts recorded there.

Got to give myself some time to learn a language other than English. Though I'm getting older and busier with mundane and career chores, I just can't ignore my love for knowing more of human pursuit after something in the yonder. Got to put myself together and work something out, thus making myself feel that my life is not entirely meaningless.
