It started as an inside joke. I was playing Mahjongg Towers Eternity (MTE for short), and created a very difficult puzzle that kept crossing at a center point - like an x. I called it "zerocrossing," in honor of the audio concept.
Months later, in MTE, I decided to go back to the beginning of the journey with a new username. So I chose the name of my most popular puzzle: zerocrossing. I liked the name immediately.
It could mean "silence." It could also mean something more theologically elevated, like "I am nothing, while the cross is all."
Neither of those definitions fits me very well. I do not find quiet easy, much less silence. It is difficult to still my inner being. And it is also very difficult to put Christ before my own desires. My life is filled with noise, and I am filled with self-will.
So calling myself zerocrossing is almost like a prayer - to be able to find the silence, the stillness, the place where the "edits" in my life are made possible by coming before the cross and allowing myself to decrease while He increases. I'm a learner. Not a teacher.
