Perseverance.

[Thriller]

Perseverance is the strength to keep running the race, even if your legs are aching. Perseverance is the strength to keep doing the test, even if the questions are too advanced. Perseverance is something we all have, deeply rooted within us.

But many of you haven't been showing it.

When VMK closed, I saw so may people say " I've failed. " or " I give up. It's over. ". To those of you, I feel sorry for you. I feel sorry that you can't feel the perseverance in you. You don't have the strength to keep fighting, apparently. I hope you learn that this attitude doesn't help you later in life.

For those of you who do have the strength, I urge you to keep fighting.

Exactly, great point I've been trying to get across to some.

Thank you for the positive feedback.

It honeslty makes me sick, when people say they have given up or don't care anymore. It's like moving from home and not ever talking to the people again. Just forgeting about them.. People say " VMK was virtual.. I'm in the real world." The fact is to some people, including me, VMK was a real world.

[Thriller]

What makes me sick is that those same people would tell me, and others, that I should have had my priorities right when I was playing VMK and that I was "addicted" to it. I find that insulting.

Very great point, I want VMK back a lot and it disappoints me whenever somebody surrenders trying to bring back VMK. The only time I am doubtful about VMK coming back is when somebody makes up an unrealistic rumor or it is read somewhere online like in a newsletter or on a factual site in which information can frequently be changed, then I don't know what to believe. But what I do believe, is that the power of the people CAN bring VMK back. We fought for women to vote, we fought for freedom and heck, we even fought for independence in the United States! So, who's to say that we can't fight to bring VMK back? Because, no matter how many times Disney ignores your emails about bringing VMK back, you shouldn't give up. I've posted this moral once and I'll post it again. In one of my favorite comedy movies, Galaxy Quest, one of the lines is, Never give up, never surrender!

Yours sincerely,
Tee

I completely agree with this. It may seem like we are miles away from our goal, but that is no reason to call it quits.

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."

I love that quote.
