Blader's Creed

Originally posted by Ghost King last month, I redid it last night and tried to make it flow. If I need to change or add anything let me know.

Blader’s Creed
I am a Blader,
I am one with my blades,
I will never strap up in fear of a tryck,
I take each fall as a lesson and every scar as a reward,
I am free when I roll and will let no one stop me,
I have class, when others talk, I show them up,
When I see another Blader, I will treat them like my own.
Let Bladers roll and haters fold.

Recognizing that I volunteered to be a rollerblader, fully knowing that it's dangerous and not the popular thing to do, I will always present myself in such a way that doesn't reflect negatively on my chosen sport.

Only a Rollerblader knows what is best for rollerbladers, and I will never compare or compete with any other sport for their respect. Rollerbladers determine their own futuer, nobody else.

Learning is something that never ends. I will never limit myself to skating a particular environment and strive to be the best at all skateable terrain.

Least of my worries is the opinion of non-rollerbladers.

...The first letters of every section spell out ROLL also. This was the best I could do in 15 minutes. I was really bored.
