Serein

Hmm, weird title isn't it?
Well okay, I'll do the best way to explain how I came up with this title.

I watched some Mr. Bean (animated) clips from YouTube. *rofls* Oh how I missed watching it.
Well I've seen this episode again titled In the Woods; where Mr. Bean tried to take pictures of these wild animals.
At the last parts of the video, the clip focused on foxes. Well the clip reminded me of how cute foxes are (especially the arctic ones) so I did some research about foxes. XD

Well I typed "Fox" on Wikipedia, I read the article, and later on I saw this Kitsune link. (Japanese Word for Fox.)
I clicked it for two reasons:

1. Because it's a Japanese word.
2. Because it reminded me of an item in Ragnarok Online. And you guys know how I'm addicted to the said online game. -.-

So yeah, I read it and found it very interesting; how it was associated with stories, magical abilities, with some religion and stuffs. It was also said here that a Kitsune is often portrayed as lovers, with the usual happenings that it involves with a young human male and a Kitsune who takes the form of a young woman.

One part in the article really caught my interest because I've heard of it before:
Other stories tell of kitsune marrying one another. Rain falling from a clear sky — a sunshower — is sometimes called kitsune no yomeiri or the kitsune's wedding, in reference to a folktale describing a wedding ceremony between the creatures being held during such conditions.

A lot of people with the same age as I am probably heard of this before.
Well so yeah, I clicked the sunshower link and saw this word:

Serein - is the word for a rain falling from a cloudless sky.

The word itself and the definition lingered on my thoughts. I knew it has something that applies with me or with other people.

I haven't heard of the said word before so I typed it on dictionary.com and clicked the other link that relates to it.
se - rein [suh-ran]
–noun
Meteorology. fine rain falling after sunset from a sky in which no clouds are visible.

- A mist, or very fine rain, which sometimes falls from a clear sky a few moments after sunset. --Tyndall.

and the meaning from the link I clicked (wordsmith.org):

noun: Fine rain falling from an apparently cloudless sky, typically observed after sunset.

Now that I've finally gave you the meaning of my blog title, it's probably obvious what kind of mood I am having now.
Yes pishbolera is back on the so called emote mode/emo mode.
Gee, I guess that accident made my thinking of unnecessary things even worse.

Okay. Back on discussing people.

How did I see it as an application to myself and to other people?
You know how we choose to cry (oh man not this again) whenever we know there's no one can see us?
.. Or how we choose to cry silently so no one could hear us?
.. Or how we choose to cry the finest way that people can't even notice our tears?
You know how we fake a smile so people won't see that pain is actually killing us inside?

People usually cry after sunset.
People usually tend to look fine so they could avoid questions from other people.

.. Hmm didn't get my point? Go read the definition again.

I found this on wordsmith.org under the definition of the word serein. I just thought it has the same interpretation to what I have just said.
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

See this blog entry packed with exaggeration? I'd apologize for that.
I just want to share how I see the similarities of crying to the word serein.
