My Open Letter to Froggen
Dear Froggen,
I miss seeing all those amazing things that only you could do. I miss experiencing all those emotions that only you could make me feel. I miss witnessing the exceptional ways in which you would soar, like no one else.
I understand that we can’t live in the past. I know that things have changed and it can never be the same as it once was. But that’s not what I want, and I don’t think it’s what anyone wants. All I’m asking for is a glimmer of hope, a sign that the boy who inspired me not long ago has grown into the man I always believed you could be.
Mistakes were made, and I understand that. Risks were taken, and there are no regrets. People come and go, as is the nature of life. The important thing is to never give up, to never say die. Keep pushing yourself to improve, keep trying. Change is here, change is now.
I remain hopeful, perhaps ignorance is bliss. Hopeful for the future, patiently waiting to see what might happen, to see what opportunities lie ahead.
A new alliance has been formed, for better or worse. New friends, old brothers. Summer is approaching, and hopefully autumn will follow. New opponents, old rivals.
I’m not asking for a miracle, I’m not asking for something divine. Just a sprinkle, just a touch of class, legitimacy, and grace in the European gaming scene.
Sincerely yours,
Marcus “Mad Xadz” Johansson
