Our friends we made, Kiwi, Mega, and myself and the Bear. What magic this game was.

This weekend I was lucky enough to take a walk with a Big Walker and Mighty Talker. A man, no a character, steeped in lore and at times controversial. Some knew him as a man of mystery. Others knew him as a friend who delighted in sharing the wonderous affect Big Walk could have. For some, perhaps an enemy, someone to "take down" because he'd done something they envied.

For those of us who call him friend and for a few new souls who stumbled upon it, a walk was taken over the last couple days that actually felt life changing. Of course laughs were had. So many laughs. Supressed giggles, big belly laughs that made your stomach hurt. But then came the quieter moments. The times of sharing, of uplifting, of vulnerabity, and understanding. It felt like therapy. Secrets. Fears. Loves. Acceptance.

We sat in a circle and shared bits of our lives and realities. The moment and what was to come hanging over us, pressing us to open up in ways we ourselves were surprised by at times. And then you could see it happening one by one. The little noses (mouths?) all becoming small as we muted because the emotions overcame us.

Some might think it preposterous that a group of people, pulled into a team in a silly game, could find themselves in such a state. I say that for those who can allow themselves to bond in this way it is no surprise at all. And I thank all of you who were there. From the ones I have known since the beginning to the new Walkers who really had no idea what they were in for, but who felt like they'd been there forever. We came to walk and to send off the Man. The Man I initially called Radio Man. He became John Big Walk. But I say this to YOU, the man not the character. Although both are lovely. As we sent off John Big Walk, we welcomed back SnowdenChris. Thank you, Chris. For the fun and the memories, and for being the channel through which my heart grew.

Love you all who walked beside each other,

Went to craft a pickaxe and just noticed my world is suddenly missing runes that we've had all this time. Playing on PS5.

He is the cutest mini stapler that ever came from the back of a truck in a Walmart parking lot. He's super tiny compared to his parents, not even half their size and we're going into the end of his growing time. He's about half the size of our pomchi, Cheeseburger. I love this goof.
