Default In solitude comes clarity

greetings friends and foes
First off I hope and pray all of you have a blessed Thanksgiving and Happy Holiday Season,Time away from something can do two things make you miss that thing you love more or make you despise it, my Kids taught me the most valuable lesson ive ever learned about the hobby, I was officiating a game between two of the youth league members, after the game one of the kids asked me for some trigger time on the board, im not sure why but at first I said no, quickly thought of some mumbo jumbo excuse to bounce on home, but the young man in question got upset and threw his figures against the wall, now mind you are games are held in a church so to me his behavior was out of bounds, he looked at me like he was going to cry or punch Ole Lock in the chin or something, i sat him down and asked him what was wrong, he expressed clearly, Lock you brought this to us and now u barely play with us, I said what does that matter you have fun dont you, he said yes but not like when your with us, i said base up and lets play, his spirit attitude and demeanor changed as soon as the game began, i realized the things I hated about the hobby affected my interaction with the kids, my own feelings stopped me from inspiring them, all I can say is im playing again, creating again, i still feel that there is alot the hobby needs to do, i credit those that keep us alive, now i do this for me and the boys, not to rude or dis anyone in 09 im coming to Dallas with whatever squad Double R says I can have and is open, And im going to make an impact! Say whatever you want about me love me or hate me EF/MF is in my blood like the line in the godfather everytime i think im out, im pulled back in, but this time own my own accord, no longer will i ask for support been there done that, this time around its about the kids and the sfefloc, if your down with us jump on if not get out the way. im not going to post pics and hype others been there done that (except my closest peeps u know who u are) Mante Rey contact me so I can conclude business that should have been done a long time ago, Yoda dropped a line in one of the Star Wars flicks, i think it went nothing is as wondrous as the mind of a child I learned that the hard way, but I learned, guys do what you do, cause i am.

do u cause imma do me!

Glad to hear that you are back.

Often the young ones can provide much needed clarity and their own form of inspiration.
