If religion's have taught me anything, is that if one's spirit is strong enough, it can overcome the eternal sleep of death and venture forth to explore the cosmos as it see's fit.
Never have I witness such dedication of a person who already knew of his demise years ago.
He never gave up. He never surrendered. He merely saw his cancer as an obstacle.
For those lacking motivation...ponder this.
You could die tomorrow in your sleep.
What would you have accomplished?
What would you regret not doing, not asking, not talking to?
Is there a special person whom you were too nervous to ask out?
Or has laziness gotten the better of you.
For many, time is a luxury, for we assume that there will always be a tomorrow.
I say...
Live life as if you know there won't be a tomorrow.
Get work done.
Go on that trip.
Do whatever makes you blossom.
There is a saying...
"The Hibiscus only bloom one in it's entire life. Though brief, it's existence was worthwhile because of the beauty it beholds. Shouldn't we reflect our lives to such dedication of life? That we may blossom within our hearts each day as if it were our last?"
RIP Edd.
When I die, we'll share a Cola in Heaven, or Asgard, or Nirvana, or whatever.
Metaphorically & theologically speaking.
Here's to you. Let us make this a tradition. A dedication to Newgrounds' most DEDICATED artist.
Every March 25th.
Let's crack open a cold one of Soda and honor Edd.
....
on second thought, better make it "natural" Soda, free of chemicals and artificial colors and sweetners.
I'd hate to be the one to point it out. But I've always suspected Edd's love of Cola being his demise, I mean...he did pretty much drink it his whole life.
'Chemical reactions result in the formation of two substances known as 2-MI and 4-MI which in government-conducted studies caused lung, liver, or thyroid cancer or leukaemia in laboratory mice or rats.'
The oddest thing was...I was compelled to do a google search on the connections of "leukaemia + cola" immediately after I decided to drink a cola in dedication to Edd.
Edd? You trying to tell us something?
Anyway, I would highly suggest Soda drinkers to put away your Coka-Cola brand Colas and switch to a more 'Natural' Soda or beverage.

Sad that he's gone. But there is no heaven bro. It never exists. Don't send Edd to nowhere!
