“To encourage, to comfort, to awaken,
and to stretch those who find themselves
riding this big ball as it screams thru time
in the silence of space. To be a bridge,
not a barricade. To be a link, not a lapse.
To be a beacon and a bolster;
not a bragger or a bummer.
To help bring the corners of
life's lips to their summit.
To be a friend to those who find their fit
a little awkward
in this chaos
society calls living.”
– Vess Barnes III
