Some people want to push boundaries
so that we can learn from their failures
and follow safely in its wake.

You're the one out of 20'000
that is meant to play this right
and inspire us to care.

This is your city.

And me?

I'm the pavement -
A canvas for street artists.

A door in the basement
of a secluded building, few go there
and even fewer open it.

Behind it
the unwoven fabric of inspiration is unfolding.

Have a piece of it
and it will make the efforts worthwhile.

Yeh, Robert Smith included this quote by Shelley in one of their albums.

We look before and after,
And pine for what is not:
Our sincerest laughter
With some pain is fraught;
Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.

There's another beautiful passage in this poem.

With thy clear keen joyance,
Languor cannot be:
Shadow of annoyance
Never came near thee:
Thou lovest — but ne'er knew love's sad satiety.

Thank you Katy :hug:

This poem is inspired by a guy that I met in my part time job. He had a hard time for sure. When I think about him I feel so lucky to be here. People are so friendly and supportive :sneakkiss:

I wish I could find more time to write and be present on the board but I'm really busy collecting points to become an ambassador. Collecting points is such a direct and unequivocal way to show appreciation. As ambassadors we get to meet up with the band and maybe, who knows, even get to know them, right?

It's obviously not a favor you could earn by writing poetry. Although poetry is a great way to express appreciation.

I couldn't agree with you more. Being an Ambassador has been one of the most funnest and most memorable things I've done thus far!

Yeah, I bet it totally rocks :rock:

I can just imagine hanging out with the band... I've already started writing down all the things that I would tell them, if I ever got the chance to meet up with them.

But the real treasure I think is to socialize with the world crew and the ambassadors. Making friends all over the world.

I mean, if you wanted to travel to Europe, Australia or other parts of the US, you would already have friends there!

I've been reading some of the things you've posted here and I wanted to say thank you for making this into such a beautiful place. You have a friend right here. If you ever want to crash at my place, you can have it. I'll stay over with a friend.

You make me think of a song. If there's one song I wish I could have written, it's this one. It pretty much sums up my Sick Puppies experience so far.

Thank you Katy. Keep up the outstanding work :hug: :rock:
