Now, the "invisible" words in my signature are all a refernce to things I like.
That quote, "Not the Victory but the Action; Not the Goal but the Game; In the Deed the Glory"
Comes from, oddly enough, a college football team here in the USA. The Nebraska Cornhuskers, which, of course, are my favorite team.
Those words, I believe, are inscribed on the stadium wall, and are supposed to be a tribute to the code that the players and fans, and people of the state of Nebraska uphold. Don't get me wrong, everyone is human in Nebraska like anywhere else on earth, but that sort of code of ethics, and reference to honor, was something that instantly attracted me.
It may be trivial, or not really important in the big scope of things, but, I like ideals like that. I hope I can follow things like that when I live my life, but I know that I'm human, too.
Also from Nebraska is
"Day by day, we get better and better
A team that can't be beat, won't be beat"
Specifically, I wanted that phrase, "Day by day......"
to go with the image, the pictures I have there
That image (it is the same for all of the images)
is, to me, a representation of love, or at least something like that.
And, in my mind, it all comes together to represent
A love that grows better and gets stronger everyday, a true team that ... makes progress together. All those ideals there.....
maybe, my ideal, my dream of what love is.
Lofty, yeah, I know. But so be it. I'm willing to work for that dream.....
I threw in a reference to PRIDE because that is my favorite song, and there is a lot of references, in that song, to things I like, and what it means to do things "in the name of love". So, that was fitting, in my mind.
So, 2 Nebraska quotes, a PRIDE reference, and an image.
"FOR HONOR", well..... I don't know. Maybe that is supposed to be a stamp of approval or something.
Maybe it was a sad attempt at trying to associate myself, in some way, to what it is I may strive for. I really don't know.
Putting my signature together was..... was like a puzzle. Those peices fit, and looked right, so I decided on that. Most things I create, or keep, have sentimental meanings to me, and I don't expect other people to get them most of the time, so it doesn't bother me.
Everything is really open to every individuals interpretation.
Maybe, to someone who hates Nebraska, my signature means something else. but it doesn't really matter, it's my signature, and I made it for myself. I can't expect everyone to like it, or what have you. It's none of my business what others think about it, honestly.

You asked me a while ago....
what do I want to be remembered for, or whatever. Something like that. What do I want people to think of when they remember me.......
Well, I think a big part of my answer to that question is:
I want people to remember not neccesarily what I do, or do not. But why - the reason for why I have my actions, thoughts, or dreams.
subconsciously..... I realize that that is what means the most to me, generally. So I guess it makes sense that I would want people to remember
what I value most, what I fuss about the most, what I am most critical of, what I consider to be the most important.
BUt then again, my answer is probably only partial. It's never just about... one thing........

PS: The words "Day by day... we get better and beter....."
are actually a link to an audio clip.
It scared me, the first time I heard it, because I wasn't expecting it. But what it is, is a clip taken from the team getting pumped up to play a big game.
The Nebraska...... it's some sort of a victory..... well, I don't want to say a prayer, but, something like that.....
I'll try to find it.
But to me, the audio clip was pretty impressive, very motivational now that I know what it is. So it's another peice to that puzzle, perhaps.........
