Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts – it is an almost unorthographic life.
When she reached the first hills of the Italic Mountains, she had a last view back on the skyline of her hometown Bookmarksgrove, the headline of Alphabet Village and the subline of her own road, the Line Lane. Pityful a rethoric question ran over her cheek, then she continued her way.
and here is the Blind text again .....
Ich bin Blindtext. Von Geburt an. Es hat lange gedauert, bis ich begriffen habe, was es bedeutet, ein blinder Text zu sein: Man macht keinen Sinn. Man wirkt hier und da aus dem Zusammenhang gerissen. Oft wird man gar nicht erst gelesen. Aber bin ich deshalb ein schlechter Text? Ich weiss, dass ich nie die Chance haben werde, im Stern zu erscheinen.
Aber bin ich darum weniger wichtig? Ich bin blind!
Aber ich bin gerne Text. Und sollten Sie mich jetzt tatsächlich zu Ende lesen, dann habe ich etwas geschafft, was den meisten "normalen" Texten nicht gelingt.
a loose translation of the above into English ...
I am blind text - since birth - and I will always be blind text. It took a long time to realise what it means to be blind text - one makes no sense at all. One will appear to be out of context in some instances. In most cases one will not be read at all. However am I for that reason bad text? I know for certain that I will never have a chance to shine in a bright light.
However am I for that reason less important? - Yes true - I am blind! But I am text.
And if for some reason you are reading this all the way to the end, I will have achieved more than most "normal" text will achieved in many instances. Thank you for reading me and maybe understanding my purpose :-)
