Hello, had we met before?
— Who are you? Who the hell is this!
Allow me, let me explain.
— I am Murat; my mother’s third living child, actually the fourth.
I am the servant of ByNoGame, and the “Murat abi” of the gaming world. I have two ears and one nose; not very well-shaped, admittedly…
I grew up with Turkish family values and in a neighborhood environment; I am a sincere person. That’s why I prefer to be called “abi” instead of “Mr.” 🙂
I also always call those older than me “abi”; I even call my own older brother abi. 😄 (He is two years older than me.)
Yes, my dear friend, I know you know me, but we are growing, you know… There are new people joining us; I needed to introduce myself to them. As Heraclitus said: “No one steps into the same river twice.” I don’t like telling the same thing a second time either; that’s why this version is a little different… v2025 😀
It’s been a long time, hasn’t it…
Years have passed… and are passing!… Let them pass.
I wanted to celebrate your new year…
“Is there any enthusiasm left to celebrate the New Year, brother?”
You’re right. This year too, many unpleasant things happened, and the world turned around its axis 365 more times; it also made another full circle around the sun… And it did so without caring about us at all!
On the other hand, when I was your age, or even younger 🙃 or older 😀 well, when I was around 14–16, a text titled “An Old Temple Inscription” deeply affected me. At the bottom it said “9th century BC.” It was written in Anatolia, our Anatolia, by a philosopher named XSENTIUS.
It began like this:
“Walk calmly amid the noise and haste; remember what peace there may be in silence…”
It was very cool… I engraved it in my mind like a nail.
And it ended like this:
“Try to see that, despite all its filth and treachery, the world is mankind’s one and only beautiful place.”
That is why, my dear, beloved ByNoGamer…
We will know this, we will love it, and we will keep loving it…
No matter how painful it is…
If it is something bitter, then why do we add bitterness to food? Why not make everything sweet… No, that doesn’t work either.
Rest feels good after being tired, a holiday feels good after working…
“Societies that wish to live comfortably without working, without getting tired, and without producing are condemned to lose first their dignity, then their freedom, and then their independence and their future.”
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk 🇹🇷🌟
Happy New Year, ByNoGamer 🎄
