It could have been others,
But it has always been you.

You & I could have sat out,
But we decided to step forth.

You & I could have stayed away,
But we chose to stay.

And hence,
We started on a journey,
We would never have imagined.

Sailing away,
With such camaraderie,
I know is rare.

We venture in darkness,
Seldom knowing what lies ahead.

Still, we try.

Because even if we are clueless,
We trust.

For we know we have each other,
For friends don’t let you do silly things alone,
For family means no one gets left behind,
For we are RBKD,
ONERBKD.

Resilient. Boundless. Knitted. Dedicated.

Even when no one is on our side,
We knew we have each other,
We knew she knew she has us.

For us, for her,
That was enough.

Sometimes, people achieve the unthinkable because of friends and family who believed and stood by them.

Everything that is made possible by RBKD is because we are in this together.

So as long as the ship continues to sail, we will and we can make it sail away even if we need to build it up again.

It was never the easy way out we signed up for,
It has, and will always be,
The road less traveled,
The road worth traversing.

Happy 9th Anniversary, RBKD!

You have been through a lot,
You have survived it all,
It’s time for our lux et veritas.

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Onwards to 10 & beyond, let’s sail together!

一个都不能少,
一个都不想少.

Happy Birthday! I love you & you a lot!
.

Your Xinyi.
