It's hard to sit here alone ...
And know that I'm sitting here because of what I've done.
What I've done to myself.
I've become a person that no one can understand.
No one can be at my level.
Good at languages, understanding cultures, anthropologist.
Yes, anthropologist.
But an anthropologist who enjoys architecture.
Something most anthropologists frown at.
For the study of architecture is not the study of culture.
As we know it it is the study of inanimate objects, buildings.
Buildings that don't live and have no culture.
But any architect will tell you true to their heart that buildings do live.
They do indeed have a culture.
The scary part is no one realizes.
No one realizes how much their culture affects ours.
Architects create without knowing.
Anthropologists research without seeing.
Without seeing what's around them ...
Everywhere.
