Foundations (Credit to an ex HOS Member)
A
foundation is more than brick and mortar. The good thing about a
foundation is that it can be rebuilt and stronger than ever. The good
thing about a good foundation is that it's there for the future.
Fairweather friends and allies will always fade away in time. These
people will never last, and eventually be wishing they had a place to
return to when their legacy fails. Our legacy is strong, and the very
foundation of the spirit it's built on will never pass into the night.
We
embrace the darkness, and evil where others shun away from it. Evil is
in our blood and our heritage. A legacy that will only get stronger
through the fires forged through our endless bond. Everyone goes through
a crucible, what makes or breaks you is what happens after you come out
of it. Iron sharpens iron and we are forged from the very depths of the
world of darkness from which we sprang. A few petty individuals who
can't fathom the awesome power our blood yields, or handle the
responsibility our name brings, will never cripple or break what we
have.
We
are a family. Our blood runs deeps and our passion runs deeper. We've
survived this long and although a House is no longer a House, it's just a
House. What makes the House the House are the individuals that still
remain loyal. Those people that never left, and when the going got
tough, they dug in and showed their character. True grit is a passion.
You embrace the strange, and the burdens that bear the name we carry.
Not everyone can be who we are.
A
lot of people have proven that fact, and those are weak-willed
individuals. We are a proud family, and people mistake our pride for
many things, but we're a family of demons among other things, so
naturally, it's in our blood to remain prideful. People can't handle the
fact, that our foundation is stronger than theirs ever will be. Those
who remain are family, and those who continue to proudly carry our freak
flag will forever be bonded by something that people can't seem to
fathom. We have seen our trials and tribulations. Our time has not come
without its troubles and the problems never seem to go away, but like
the Phoenix, we rise out of the ash and embrace the absurdity that comes
with the name. We embrace our freak-like nature, and the blood that
flows from it has us bathe in it a lot more than shun in it. We were
baptized by fire, and our fire never goes out, it only burns hotter. Out
of the decades and centuries of being who we are, and going through the
problems, there is one very important fact..
We're still here..
