The doctors were able to save me. I missed my heart by an inch.
Do glad there's an upload right as I wake up from my coma.
I know we're just strangers, but I'm glad you missed
So am I. You got another chance. Do with it what you will, but please, for the sake of all of us who are in the same place, do something worthwhile with it.
Christmas miracle!!!
You were meant to do great things in this life,
your story only just begun.
Thank God :)
I imagine this being played at the end of a journey, returning home to people you know and they see you have changed physically. With a smile you say, “I’m still me.”
The Good Doctor: Very well written, buddy
especially the ending.
It's awesome that your Dad is so supportive of you!
As someone who is going to see a great many things wrong with humanity in the next twenty years of my career, I am hoping that when I retire I can sit down, look at myself in the mirror, and say those words; "I'm still me". Some days, even now, I find it hard. But it's little things like this that remind me that no matter what happens, I can sit down and say that I will always be myself. I just need to remember what it means to be me. And all I can hope for is that my family says the same when I get back home.
I'm a year late to this party, but thanks Rush. I appreciate your work.
What's your career? (if you don't mind asking)
I had only discovered this channel 2 or 3 months ago; with the Fly Away Orchestration piece. And ever since then, I've been listening to piece after piece, each one just as good if not better than the last - though if I were to be asked which arrangement is my favorite, I would simply say "All of them". And today, I've stumbled upon this piece. After taking a few minutes to just freeze and allow myself to listen to the piece... I just started to cry. This arrangement is just so... it's not just a song. It's not just another arrangement/piece, it's... something that I could spend years trying to explain, and still be unable to give justice to the detail that the description for this song deserves-at least, in my eyes. From the very first note to the final rest, every pitch, every rhythm, every instrument; they don't just all come together to tell this one glorious story- each and every individual piece has its own legacy that it's sharing with one another, their paths crossing over continuously as they continuously push to create an entire world of its own.
My childhood was a very dark, and sad one. My mother abandoned our family at the age of three, and my father proceeded to physically abuse me for the next three years. When I wasn't being hurt in some way shape or form, I was being completely neglected. In fact, I'd only been able to stay alive and have a decent education during these times because of my sister, who would find food for us and teach me how to read and write. Needless to say, once these things were discovered, we were put into foster care pretty quickly. The next 4 years were spent with the family that I'm adopted in now. It's been 6 years since that day that we were adopted...and yet it was only last month that I had found out about my own past; about my own story. We received a copy of our adoption papers and other various legal documents because we're trying to fix an issue that we have with our lawyer somehow forgetting to include the information that our names were changed with our adoption those 6 years ago (We can't get a license because of this, and that means we can't get jobs or a driver's license either until this is fixed). A particular document, with the label of a court case or something along those lines, caught my attention. And that's how I found out about all of these things that had happened to me. Even now, I only know so little that there's not much I can say about my past, nor lineage. However, I found out three things that day. My father died a week after I was adopted. My mother has disappeared from the face of the earth. And my so-called "Family" had been straight up lying to me, or at least concealing information that you'd think would be important to tell someone, for over a decade.
Besides all of this, when I look back on everything and take a moment to see where I am, I know that I'm still the same curious, playful, helpful, adventurous little boy that I was ten years ago when I first stepped into what would be my new home. And it really opened my mind, to see that despite the fact that there have been so many things trying to weigh me down or get in my way; for such a long time; none of it has been able to change who I am.
Now, I'm a kid who's throwing himself into the world around him, helping as many people as he can without giving it a second thought. Despite all of the evils that the world has thrown at me, I refuse to follow its example and decide to help as many people as I can.
I'm kind of rambling at this point but... I wanted to say thank you. For your work, for your efforts, for your talents, for everything. For helping me, when I needed someone to lean on.
How are things going? : )
It's really cool that your Dad helps out with your music- makes it even more enjoyable to listen to!
The day had only just begun. The sun had risen, bathing the sky in its hues. The ocean captured a deep azure that hid depths no one could imagined. Fish of all colors swirling around a single spot, keeping in mind the terms of her agreement.
And she rose in the center of their boundary. In a glow of red, she appeared on the sea, her brown, almost blonde hair obeying the movements of the wind. Her red clothes a contrast to the shades of blue surrounding her. Still and rigid attempting to feign relaxed, she slowly opened her eyes, and tried to hide the unreasonable disappointment that she wasn’t anywhere near land.
Though, she had known being a host for the Guardian entailed forever being connected to the territory they oversaw. At least she was permitted to see the surface every few months. Others had to wait years before even glimpsing what they were protecting.
Taking an unneeded breath, she started walking towards an unknown destination. Her steps sent out ripples aiming for lands miles away. Lands that contained homes she wished with all of her heart she could return to. Where her brother would tilt his head to the left when he’d make breakfast. Where her sister danced lighter than air when she moved. Where her father filled almost every second with sentences that refused to bore them.
Her path stopped at the border where the fish continued to swim in a loop that showed her the limit of her path.
She sighed, and turned around to walk towards the other end of her prison. A prisoner, to the Guardian of Waves and chained to the sea. For safety granted her home, she could never see it again. She would carry the burden of being the host of Guardian, and she’d fight against anything that would dare disrupt her land. She’d protect her home, and give up her freedom. Each and every day.
If she was given the choice to turn the clock, to alter fate, she knew she would not change her choice. It was always her land, her family over herself. She would suffer torture thousands of times for eons over if it guaranteed them even a second of peace and safety.
Perhaps her view would change. After all, she still has centuries before her body would burn out and become unusable for the Guardian. Maybe she’d be filled with bitterness. Maybe seeing just the skies and oceans wouldn’t be enough. After all, it wouldn’t be the first it’d happen, and she knew there’d be others after her that would forsake their decision.
But for now, her mind has not been dulled, and she would not change time. For now, she was still the same girl who accepted the burden with resignation. She was still the her she remembered herself as.
_Albeit a bit taller,_ she thought as she looked at her reflection in the waters.
She felt a tugging in her soul, calling to her. Pulling her down and reminding her of her duty, she took a last look at the skies to save to her memory, and sunk beneath the waves as quickly as she came. She let her consciousness relinquish control, and for the Guardian to take over. There’s much work to do.
After all, the day has just begun.
Argentum Aurum please tell me you have a book or are planning to be a writer.
Althaea Ratliff the Religion that’s a yes to both.
@@argentumaurum9077 post the link here when its done, people will buy
i love these kinda thing. where did you get dem inspirations doe
By any chance do you dm for D&D games it seems you have experience from the area of world and scene building
Countless decades.
The harshest struggle they may ever know.
The seeds finally sprouted.
It rained in the desert.
(There, paid my poetry tax to this song. xP)
I love this song so much. It feels like when somebody dumps you for being not the person who they thought you were, and you're just like 'well I'm still me.'
This music is so emotionally powerful and thanks for making something so amazing.
How fitting to have this youtube recommendation one year after.
This is so nice. Thank you for sharing it!
I'm ready for another masterpiece before I even start woOooh
I instantly clicked this video the moment I saw the title and had it resonate with me, and my god you delivered every single note, your father too! I love nothing more than parent-child team-ups with a shared passion. You both did such a WONDERFUL job, and I'm excited for future works! Hope your holidays were a great one and your day is wonderful today!
Even after everything
All the trials that we have gone through
All the laughs that we have enjoyed
And all the pains that we endured
You are still you...
...And I am still me.
While the journey may have enlightened us
And hopefully had altered us for the better
At our core, we are still the same.
(Amazing track as usual, everyone have a great day and may the new year shine a bright future upon all of us...)
This brings me to a place that I can't explain . . . like an old, comforting, warm memory that I can't quite remember . . .
Haven't even listened to it yet but I know I'll love it!
This made me cry, but it was a good cry
You aren't alone here. I felt the exact same way and I swear this perfectly reflects this. The first time I listened to it I was also just balling it out with tears. It was so happy and just reminded me of who I was.
Rush this is amazing. Thank you so much for this, it has helped me so much through tough times and your work in general is amazing.
Just one word : *Excelsior!!!!*

Amazing work 👌

How do you keep pulling out these amazing works? I hope one day I may be able to amaze as many people as you do! Maybe not through music, but somehow.
Even now, I'm still me and that's the most I can wish for.
Legit this made me tear up
Hi bro. I really like your music. It warms the heart and soul. Good luck with your work. Could you make some music out of the clannad? I would be very happy to hear that, as I think many subscribers do.
Thank you for your work, greetings from Russia.
The piano part at 2:29 gives me chill down my spine everytime.

Enabling Notification is the best choice I've ever made
I'm still enjoying your christmas one from last year.
Nice!
This piece fits the picture which "Yamato" from Kancolle. Excellent job!
YEET
It would be awesome if you made a video about how you make these masterpieces. It would be a pleasure to learn from you :)
I have a good feeling your music will be featured in big time broadcasts, shows, or movies.
I love all of your different pieces. They are amazing. How often do you upload the newer ones to Spotify?
Aaaaaaaaaand saved
Your dad is really good pianist
I encountered your channel from the Open Your Gate Sawano MV you commented on (I know, how weird, but hey it worked), and I have to say this song is great. If anything, I feel like you've reached that goal you wanted in that comment already.
Oh y3ss
Oh man yes another upload so soon!
Sei que ninguém que ler esse comentário vai entender, mas quero dizer que o trabalho desse cara é muito bom. Me ajudou em várias coisas, por mais que as pessoas achem que música talvez não ajude em nada!
notice me senpai
and Rush spoke
1 Dislike, awesome.Dec 29 2018.
I came under impression, what kind of music matches the hotel at background. And im satisfied with the result.
Love your work, tell your dad that I he is amazing, and that I am happy you have a good relationship with your father. :)
The one dislike is the person who doesn’t feel like themselves anymore
Good music good artwork g o o d d a y
