[Ansteorra-archery] Time in the Sun...

[Adam Edwards]

Time in the Sun... 15 minutes of fame...  Whatever you want to call it, 
I think I understand it...  We should never pursue Glory, Honor, Fame or 
Recognition just for their owns sake. But when we strive for personal 
excellence and are recognized for it then by all means, ENJOY IT.  We 
spend so much time saying it's not about the Titles or the Sparklies 
people end up feeling guilty about actually enjoying that time.  I 
remember with a great deal of pride being pulled aside @ GW and given my 
Kings Archer.  I busted my ass day in and day out in the Archery 
community and I'm not even sure I knew the KAA actually existed but I'll 
tell you, I'm damn proud of that Braid.  The only thing that was better 
than receiving it was being able to give my braid to the next one and 
tell them about the history of the Archers who had had it before me.

I have never set out to win a tournament or recognition but I am proud 
of what I've accomplished, both what's been recognized and what only a 
few people know about.
