[Artemisia] [Aerie] RE: Identifing those who serve

[rapierfghtr]

Greetings, 
          M'lord Micheal. I do agree with you about some falling 
through the cracks. the cracks are growing. I too have traveled to 
and fought in several different kingdoms. I don't wish to defame or 
belittle anyones accomplishments, I have a tenency to call things as 
I see them. As for the economics and region, when I said it "seems" I 
mearly wanted to make a point that as an issue it comes to the people 
inhabiting these areas. The true heart of the problem is to me, a 
lack of caring. Not by one individual, but by the body as a whole. 
Many become wrapped up in the "game" often forgetting it is just 
that...a game. Those who are left in the afermath simply get tired of 
it and quit. Wich results in low numbers. Wheather they have played a 
year, or twenty. And that is disconcerning to me. I have encountered 
many who believe that they themselvs are more important than one 
person at an event. When the truth be told, all hold equal importance 
not just the individual of title. Yes the king and queen are the 
exception, they are the patrons of our kingdom and should be held in 
high regaurd.
        If people wish to earn thier title then that should be done 
and rightly so. For of course the right reasons. Those who are not 
recognized should be and rightly so. But the core of the problem is 
those who see service being done and make no mention of it. It is the 
duty of all to help others, and have fun doing so. Is that not the 
dream? Is that not the good side of the middle ages? People fail to 
see this, and when they don't get what they think they deserve, well 
you know the rest. On the other side of that however, those who do 
deserve are to timid to speak up. Hence the idea of helping others, 
speak up for them. And let them know not only you see the good, but 
that you intend to help everyone else see too. 
        As the saying goes "you reap what you sew". Perhaps we have 
all brought this upon ourselvs, and now is the time to take off the 
blinders and see the entire picture. 

Yours in service
