Could Not Be Worse
1.5 yrs into my 1st job out of college, I was doing doing miserable work, 2+ hrs drive away from everyone I knew. Disappearing into shuffled algorithm music got me through every workday.
The strings that open FF7's Main Theme hit me square in the chest. Goosebumps raced across my neck and arms. My heart ached.
Nostalgia is a lie we tell ourselves; but, for a brief moment, the cubicle and fluorescent light surrounding me fell away, and I was home again.
Favorite track: Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII (FINAL FANTASY VII).
