When i woke up today, the only thoughts i had were "Oh boy, this is gonna be an awesome day, except for that one guy, who's annoying as hell, but anyway, this day is gonna be good!" Then i turned on my computer, since i had a little bit of time before going to work. As usual i looked at the normal sites, Facebook, Twitter, 9Gag, stuff like that. Then i saw on Twitter that tweet about KT_Violet being dead. Being shocked, I searched for him on liquipedia and saw that he was only 23 years old.

These very sad News, bothered me the whole day. There was no point where i laughed and i can't even remember seeing myself smiling because i realized "Oh god, this could happen to everyone, no matter how old or healthy".

Anyway...

This makes me so sad. It makes me sad because he was only 23 years. He should've been living his life, playing starcraft, meeting friends, partying, or whatever made him happy. But the only thing he shouldn't been doing was laying in the hospital, waiting for his death.
On the other side, Violet's life inspires me, to live my life as i wish to live it, because it could end everyday. Also his hope, his ability to never lose this hope, makes me cry, because he always looked forward into the future. He never said "well, i think it's over" or something like that. And i think this should be a lesson to all of us.
There were some times in my life, where i thought it would be better if i commit suicide. I don't think thoughts like that will ever come back, after this example of endless hope in a better future.
Also his life inspires me, in that way that everyone should live their dream. I mean, if he played starcraft that good, I'm sure, at some point of his life, it was his dream to become a Progamer.
He lived his dream. So should we all.
Because it could end everyday.

So, all i can say is:
Thank you Woo Jung Ho also known as "KT_Violet" for teaching me these valuable lessons.

Rest in Peace. Now you're at a better place than this world.
My wishes are with your family.

Violet...

I never watched you played. I had never heard of you until recently. Reading through this post i can see you were loved by many. Seeing this community pour it's heart out to you and your family brings tears to my eyes. After reading bits of your career and what you accomplished, you were one of the best. Taken from us and the world too soon. You family and friends will be in my thoughts and prayers during this hard time. You will be greatly missed. You will forever be immortal in the world of starcraft and this community. RIP Homie
