Master Zero, do you have any words for our newest Knight?

zero_storm#08/31/2024 5:25:00 PM
Well lady, here we are. Saying I'm proud in this moment is such a gross understatement. The level of personal growth I have seen in you over the last year and a half has been astonishing. Even in the last couple of weeks, I have continued to watch you take giant leaps toward improving your life, and the lives of those you hold most dear. We have laughed, smiled, cried and hysterically sobbed our eyes out together since this all started. You have made so much of an impact on my life that I barely recognize myself sometimes. You have taught me understanding, grace, and humility, and show me infinite patience while doing it. I will always love you for the ways you have and will continue to change and improve my life. 

I have watched you tackle challenge after challenge on your path and do it all with a determination that I haven't seen the likes of in these halls in my many years here. I know you have fears and uncertainty about what comes next. But I will continue to be by your side, right where I belong, Along with your Jedi family. There is nothing you can't do when you put your heart into it, and I know firsthand that god help anyone who gets between you and your goals. You are wise and understanding beyond your years. You are a force to be reckoned with when forced to be, and compassionate and supportive when anyone needs your help. You Morkano are the definition of what it means to be a Jedi Knight.

Knights like you are what keeps Totjo such a beautiful, and beneficial place to our members. We truly do impact the lives of the people who come here to learn and grow, so please don't ever forget that you can help people, the way I helped you. Now, the next chapter begins, and I'm more excited than ever to take this next step with you, side by side, as Knights, as friends, as teachers, as leaders......as Jedi.

Congratulations Knight Morkano!!!!!

rosalynj#08/31/2024 5:26:54 PM
Knight Morkano, the floor is now yours.

.morkano#08/31/2024 5:26:58 PM
To Master Zero- I want to begin with thank you. When I walked through these doors, I had no idea what was waiting on the other side. What I found was a home, a family, and lifelong connections. From that first message two years ago, everyday has been a new adventure. There have been crazy highs and devastating lows but through it all, we have walked hand in hand. Every lesson, every phone call, every message, every event (good or bad). Like learning how to ride a bike without training wheels, this is where you let go and I take those first strides. I am prepared and I am ready but I know you will always be there to catch me when I fall. You will always be there to pick up the phone. You will always be there to experience life with me. Just as I am here for you. Apprenticeship and this connection is lifelong and I have never been more excited for what the future holds. I love you with every bit of who I am and I am forever grateful for you. 

To my saber fam and Orions- you keep me going and you are my family. Whether you know it or not, you have all filled a space in my heart. We are a mixed bunch for sure but what family isn’t. Keep being incredible. 

To ToTJO- Thank you. Each of you (directly or indirectly) have impacted my experience here. Being a human takes a village and thank you for being my village. I can’t wait to continue to give what was so freely given to me.

rosalynj#08/31/2024 5:28:19 PM
We will now have words of congratulations
