(with apologies and thanks to Nels Johnson who posted this on AFI a while back):
So this is my kuleana (that is a Hawaiian word that means a gift of the spirit) to all of you out there.
HOPES AND DREAMS. Never give up. We are all special. Nobody can fire us, not a lot of people can feel that way. You are your own boss, nobody gets to tell you what to do. You are the supreme creators. You make the art, and in turn it helps make you. It defines who you are, it leads you on a path of good life. I don't think Elvis ever got to know how lucky he was. We do, and we are on the right side of the growing grass. Cherish these moments and thoughts. This is the moments of our lives, embrace them with fury that knows no bounds.
If you're out there doing shows you know what he is saying. Does AFI help you follow those dreams? If so, the time has come to reciprocate. Please pledge today. CLICK HERE.
We are going to start giving out prizes on May 25 and start drawing names on May 26. Make sure you are on the list. Right now we have more prizes than pledges!
