Challenge
We lost a lot with the passing of Chris Cornell. To many, he was a mentor, a brilliant writer; an inimitable voice. Until June 30th, this challenge is for the friends and fans to write their stories, poems, tributes: anything about him. We will be putting together a book for the Cornell family, of the posts entered, as well as making copies available for purchase, donating all proceeds to suicide prevention. In partnership with Seattle Refined, the most shared post will be read on air, and posted on seattlerefined.com.

Celestial Being

Chris wasn't just a musician. He touched, saved, and shaped a lot of lives. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be doing the only thing, thanks to him, I found out I was good at. But how can a person have such an impact on your life through their music? Well, that's just how he was. He was my best friend. He would say what I wanted to hear. He would play what I wanted to learn to play. I'd go to sleep listening to his voice and his music, and wake up in the morning doing the same. I never met him, but he was always with me. I don't miss him because he'll always be with me. Like a part of my body, he'll always be a part of me. Goodbye, celestial being. Forever my Rock God, forever my all. I love you. Always will. You're my everything. Thank you for everything.

Ali.
