One day, as I was browsing through a blog, I came across the author picking up on someone else’s statement online and furiously ranting,
“Who does this nobody think they are, acting all high and mighty…”
As I felt a chill run down my spine, the word “nobody” caught my attention.
The blogger was attacking others by calling them nobodies, but to me, the blogger themselves were just an anonymous nobody on the internet, venting their anger. The irony wasn’t lost on me – a nobody getting angry at someone else for being a nobody. And here I am, just another nobody peeking into this online exchange…
Yes, the internet is full of nobodies.
Yet, even as nobodies, we encounter various information overflowing from the media and have our thoughts and feelings about the world and the society we live in. Even a nobody has something to think and something to say.
This blog is written by such a nobody, but if any reader, who is crafting their own “story,” feels even a slight “Hmm” of interest or enlightenment, it would bring me great joy.
Sincerely Yours,
Yanakoh,
