Well I made it to the end. Got here with a lot blood sweat tears and a whole lot of luck. But I am here. The world is different nowadays. Each day the world gets worse and worse and we keep trying to make things right. Then we realize there is no making things right. Its not possible. Its never been possible.
What is right after after all? My son asks me if he will ever be like most of the other kids? And I say no. He asks why not? I tell him God made him that way. And that's how he has to be. I feel bad for him. Because he wants to fit in. Sure he has his little friends who are like him. But he doesn't just want to be friends with the other kids who have Downs. He wants to be friends with all kids in the neighborhood and at school. Most though avoid him, they don't want to play with him or much to do with him at all. Some are afraid of him, some don't understand his condition. Others are just not good kids. But that can be forgiven. Kids are kids and they just don't know any better. So I don't take it too much to heart when some kids are mean. They just don't know any better.
The thing is I can never make my son like the other children. That is a wrong I cannot right. A wrong I can never right, for as long as I live. There are times in my life that I wish I could do more for him, do more for us. Give him and us a better life. But that's now how life works. That is not how my life works.
But now its time for another right to be wrong. Long ago I defeated Lucas Balkan. A match that was so close. I was barely coming into my own, trying hard to find my way and so I did. I’ve had a decent career, held multiple titles. But in the back of my mind I always wondered if I was really good enough to beat him or if I just got lucky that night? Honestly I think I just got lucky. And I’ve been riding that luck for way too long.
Lucas its time for you to wrong your right. Time for you to win the world title again and make things right for you, make things right for me, for us both. But let me explain something. I am not going to willingly give you the world title. Oh no no no. NO sir. If you be worthy of it. You will win it, you will beat me. I will not lay down. I have never laid down. Right now I am the world champion. It is up to you to win it, not for me to lose it. I have done my part to get us here. Now if you are good enough you will do your part. And if you are not good enough then I will retain. That's just the way it has to be.
I really hate that you and I are here in the final match. As I had stated a few weeks ago. I like you Lucas. I look up to you. You are one of the few people in SFT that I like and respect. The reason is simple. You have had a hard life too. And I think we can relate to each other when it comes to hardships. We both know life is not roses and puppies. We know life is harsh, and if we are not strong enough it will gobble us up like paper.
Nothing you have ever done has ever been easy. You have taken the long way around in life and in all things connected. And its made you stronger. Strong for the upcoming times we are all going to face. And rest assured they are coming.
You know I always hoped you'd return one day. And I was extremely happy when Harold said you had agreed to return. You belong here. And truth be told I think you too finally realize where home truly is. This is home, for me, for you for many. And at times its siblings must fight each other, its just the way it is.
So this is the start. I will have more to say of course, I have time, you have time. But the world does not. I wish I could save the world from what is happening right now. But I will settle for saving my son and if I can myself.
That is the only thing I can do right about now.
