~ I've been struggling to write this for a while now, mainly because it's exceptionally hard to articulate just how grateful I am for Birdi and the amazing job she's done. From when I first entrusted her with the kingdom keys, to the day she passed them on herself, she's proved her worth each and every day. Remember us; you're one of us <3 and while you're moving on from hosting, there's always going to be a place for you here. Your impact on SWC will never ever be forgotten, and the gHosts have gained a literal legend. I can only hope you can look back on your tenure and feel nothing but pride, and that you're taking to heart all the appreciation and love our community has been showing you over the past few days/weeks. And in the name of education, I hope you've learned a few things about writing on the way! 'Hold onto the memories, and they will hold onto you.' Thank you - Alba ~ Shipwreck in a sea of faces There's a dreamy world up there Dear friends in higher places Carry me away from here Travel light, let the Sun eclipse you Cause your flight is about to leave And there's more to this brave adventure Than you'd ever believe Birds-eye view, awake the stars cause they're all around you Wide eyes will always brighten the blue Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery 'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind And take to the sky (da da, da da, da da da da da da) On the heels of war and wonder There's a stormy world up there You can't whisper above the thunder But you can fly anywhere (ooh-ahh) Purple burst of paper birds This picture paints a thousand words So take a breath of myth and mystery And don't look back Birds-eye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you Wide eyes will always brighten the blue (ooh-ooh) Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery 'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind And take to the sky There's a realm above the trees Where the lost are finally found Touch your feathers to the breeze And leave the ground Birds-eye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you Wide eyes will always brighten the blue Chase your dreams, and remember us, you're one of us - cause after all those wings will take you, up so high So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind And take to the sky :) ~ singing by me, thumbnail by canva, song: take to the sky (owl city)
