I know that the post after the anniversary post should be happy and cheerful and all, but I talked about something with two of my closest blogger friends a week or two ago. Their names I no give out, sorry. I just want to keep it that way for some reason.
I'm gonna make my point this way- first off, on Wizard101Central there is the Elite Authors in the Stories and Poetry section. The author of the Elite Authors thread wrote something to symbolize those Elites who had left. I'll repeat it on this blog, Kay5101 being the author of this-
So go, my friend, and follow the footsteps of your predecessors. We are all destined to leave this place one day. We do not know when, and we do not know how, but none the less, it will come. And on that day, you will walk the path many others have. I hope you do not fear that day, because there is nothing to fear. You will know that you have left this place better than when it began. So let us celebrate those who have passed before us, and look forward to our own day, to when we too will become...Legendary.
This is true not only for Elite Authors, but bloggers as well. Someday, like it or not, we're all going to leave the blogosphere. Maybe when we grow bored of Wizards, maybe as we mature into adults, perhaps as long till death. So make your mark, and make your mark fast. Here's a song I really like- please listen to it before proceeding in this post.
And now here's the lyrics to that song- read it through.
My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?
Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?

Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?
If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?
Act like today was your last day. Like you wouldn't live it twice. Would you make your mark?
Let nothing stand in your way. Live each moment like your last. Do whatever it takes.
Act like today was your last day...
Soon, every blogger has a time. That time will be their last day.
And so, what I'm trying to say is...
That time... for me, that time, that last day... may be coming soon.
