This post is dedicated to a special someone.
A great gaming friend, and a close friend in person.
He has passed on at the age of 21, after battling cancer for years.
He epitomized what it meant to have a fighting spirit.
Struggling between visits to the hospital, and practicing the game he so loved.
You gave me hope when my chips were down.
We were largely similar, both in real life and virtual life.
Before I met you, my dream was a fantasy.
Before I met you, I know.
My largest accolade was through pure luck. I could never make it.
High aspirations, Low ability.
But you...
You were like a mentor to me, a meticulous and patient tutor.
A person who corrected many aspects of my game,
A person who could always discuss anything about it.
You instilled in me a sense of belief.
You told me not to fear them, and just do what I do.
Many people in this world, dreams are never fulfilled.
But mine was. Largely thanks to you...
Rest in Peace my great friend.
I won't forget you.
