I am amazed at just how tough he was... | |
Posted By: Nijhazer | Date: 2/15/03 11:59 a.m. |
In Response To: *Ar-Isildur (Ar-Anarion) Despite everything he's been through, never once did I hear him complain about his lot, never once did I ever hear of him quitting in anything he did-- whether in a game or in real life. A lot of people in his situation would have taken it really hard; I know I would've. But that guy, he had his priorities straight. And frankly, he was twice the man I am. Ar's family knows we looked up to him here. And that's a key thing: we didn't just view him as a friend or a guy that hung out with us over here, we really looked up to him. A lot of the folks here are actually a good bit older than he was, myself for example, yet there's so much we can all learn a lot from Ar and from the way he lived his life. In the face of despair, he never quit, he never gave up-- he never stopped firing. So right now, as we all cope with the loss of such an astounding man as Brian Morden, I don't think he would want for us to be sad. I don't think he would want us to dwell on the end, but to live in the good times, just as he did. Tonight I'm going to remember Ar-Isildur through Halo-- the game that united all of us and, through that union, allowed all of us to share in the light of his life. And going forward, I'm going to remember Ar by following in his example: by never dwelling on the dark parts of life, but instead, focusing on the positives and enjoying life for however long it lasts. If we were all to follow this example, the human race would be far better for it-- really, there can be no better way to immortalize Brian Morden than by proving that he really had the right idea. -Nij |
