The greatest gift anyone can give is the gift of knowledge. Knowledge opens up pathways for thought, communication, growth and freedom. Through my life I have gained knowledge, of pain, of joy, of friendship, of love in all it's forms. GiShwhEs taught me about the love and kindness of crazy people that come together to make the world a brighter place. Team Mishap is a true family of people that have (mostly) never met but would jump out and do anything for each other. It's truly incredible what you can do when you just know you have the choice to do it. That is what it's all about, knowing your options, that you could receive new information at any point that could open up an entire world for you. A bright, endless, no longer impossible future full of potential, full of dreams, full of choices. What greater gift can there be than knowledge?
If I knew I had one extra second of life on this Earth, I would use it to release the knowledge I have gained throughout this life. Through my contact with other people, places, situations, textbooks, and conversations I have learned so much that I wish I could impart to so many. I would use my amazing teammates as transmission points for this sharing, because it could not ever be in more capable hands to be spread to the world than in the hands of my fellow Gishers. May the world become ripe and shining with knowledge.
