Years go by...
Amaryllis Bloom
I woke up this morning, not thinking about anything in particular. Songs hit different today though. Random things stuck out that I hadn't thought about in a while. Then I saw what the date was...
Five years ago, I was on a flight to meet some one. Some one who ended up changing my life. Can't really say for better or worse, that's a matter of perspective. And it made me realize how much things can influence our lives.
This encounter would never have happened if not for this game actually. I created an account to harass some one. It worked. But in doing so, I came across some one that matched my wave length.
5 years later, I still find myself logging in and doing the 2 clicks, the daily fighting, the random posts. Just seems hollow now. The drive is gone. Friends have faded away or just turned into strangers again, conversations are now sparce. It's like keeping an empty bottle of wine. It once held something you enjoyed, you looked forward to, now it's just a bottle. You really have no need for it, but you can't force yourself to throw it away. Because while it's original contents are gone, it holds countless memories.
Anyways, thanks game. Because of you, I met some one I never thought I would.

I hope you are well.
Eh. March was rough. But I'm doing better. Currently doing my best to avoid the virus. Yourself?
Oh yeah, I think NY will be in lock down for quite some time. Currently I'm an essential worker doing my best to stay awake.
NY is a shyt show. Ask me how I know. I might have been in and out of quarantine. I might also be in direct contwct with people on daily basis.

So I assume you are better?
Relatively speaking. Yeah, I'm "fine". It's fine.
I have a friend who just flew from here to NY to help out at hospitals. We are getting hit bad here and protests against our governor have started. I can only imagine what NY is going through.
I'm born and raised a Buckeye, most of my family are there and so far everyone is safe. Come visit erep more often if you can or want to, I always enjoyed reading your fiction. Stay safe!
Well written article.
Cheers!
