A piece I wrote for the channel
It's seems I struck something in many of you
It's amazing to me knowing we have gone almost two years with this channel. Although it started off with a big bang our first show received nearly 200 thousand views in the first couple of weeks it slowly tapered off.
It was new and I think a lot of people thought we'd be the next hot ticket with lots of flash, bang and exploitation. But as time went by the trolls tried to bagger us to no good end as we ignored and never fed them. None of you ever did. They went away. So did the looky-loos looking for the next hot Hollywood story.
What really grabbed me and said it all was one comment yesterday with regards to the latest intro for our shows I just created. To quote, "Not what I was expecting and I am very pleasantly surprised." For me that spoke volumes. This person was expecting the usual in your face click bate message. I think as an artist it was a great compliment. Thank you.
In fact I didn't expect the reaction I got from all of you. I have spent a long time making something only to have it lay there but this new intro struck something in all of you. It brought some of you to tears. To be honest it did to me too.
And I know why. At least for myself if not all of you. Peace, gentle, kind, loving, wonder, joy, and going home. Away from the nightmare that is present lingering over us like some monster that won't go away. We just want to live in peace. We see what and who we are. We know how the world has to change in order to survive and thrive on life and joy.
I can't speak for everyone else but I know and feel this is what waits for us. It's their message. It's their purpose for being here.
So here we are. The channel is small but huge at the same time because of all of you. You found us and shared your love with us. You have gone in front of our cameras and shared your stories and experience. We could have never asked for more.
Moving on we have many more courageous souls coming forward and as time moves on this movement slowly grows. We are truly the only channel and movement of its kind. There is no one like us. A channel with a strong moral center that will always treat this subject and you with the dignity we all deserve.
Thank you for being here.
