Today I hit 5 million points in the f@h2 project...when I started folding that was an unattainable goal...an impossible dream.

There was a time when an individual 50PPD was a pipe dream and 5000PPD for this team was an impossible goal.

There was a time when we were ridiculed as "15 year old punks" who would never amount to anything, let alone becoming the top DC team on the planet.

There was a time when I felt like I was the only person who believed in you all.
Well, damn it, I WAS RIGHT to believe in you.

What I never realized, was that you believed in me, and I think I let some of you down.
I'm sorry that I was away for so long, and I am so very glad that you were still here when I returned.

I usually use my own words, but today I will edit some words that have always held special meaning for me. With due respect to Joe Darion and the many contributors to "Man of La Mancha"

Dare you dream the impossible dream?
Will you fight the unbeatable foe?
Would you bear with unbearable sorrow?
Dare you run where the brave dare not go?

Will you right the unrightable wrong?
Will you love those only known from afar?
Will you try when your arms are too weary,
To reach the unreachable star?

This is our quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far

To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause

And I know if we'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That our heart will lie peaceful and calm
When we're laid to our rest

And the world will be better from us
This one team, scorned and disparaged by all
Still strove with their last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star.

Great post!


 
It is kinda sad knowing what I missed in the past. :( Must have been an up and down road, yet you always knew it was for the greater good and stayed true!



 
It just wasn't the same around here when you were gone Relic. You've always held high standards for this team and it's goals. We're glad you are back with a vengeance.
