The Darkness Before Dawn

New dawn, new day.

The past year has taught me many lessons, and they are lessons I've learnt well.

And these lessons, which normally change us over time, have come together in my mind during the last few days.
One on top of another.
Until the slow evolution of learning has been replaced by a startling dawn of revolution.
Because enough is enough.
So...
Towards those of you who have lied to me, used me, and betrayed me...
Towards those of you who sought to better yourselves or your comrades by using me and my skills rather than by using your own skills...
Towards those of you who didn't even respect me enough to think that I may have realised what was going on...
I let go of my anger.

Not because I forgive you.

Because I don't, and I never will.

I let go of my anger because I believe that what goes around comes round.
Reap what you sow.
Get what you give.
And i let go of my anger because at last I realise that I don't have to be the instrument of my own revenge.
Sometimes, I will be, but I won't seek this vengeance out.
It will happen how, and when, it is meant to happen.
And when it does.
Think of me.
You know who you are.

Now relight the candles, light the midwinter bonfire.
The dark days are over.
Because for those of you who are my brothers and sisters, I'm still here.

Those of you who I have trained and fought alongside.
Those of you who help me without thought of reciprocation
Those of you who were really there for me when I needed you.
I don't need to name you, because...
You know who you are.
And, more  importantly...
So do I.

And on my first day without training since November, how do I feel?
Strong.

Renewed.

Born again.

It's 2011 today

It's Saturday.

More importantly...

It's Craigy time.

Like it's never been before.

If you're with me, it's all good,

If you're not with me, you're against me.

Because too many things have been too gray, for too long.

And now it's black and white.

Mostly black.

So if you're not with me.
Stay out of my way.
Because everything has changed.

This is Revolution,

General Out
