Reminds me of Hemingway. 🦋

@JustGoneNow Now that's a compliment I never thought I'd get. Me being compared to Hemingway? Wow.
@StarterPack Maybe Fitzgerald. There’s hidden meaning here, forcing me re-read it. It’s good.

@JustGoneNow Thanks!
This is very well done and I can't help escape the feeling there is more to this than meets the eye; as if it is a layered story with more meaning that just the obvious one of a new world and a new home.

@Elandra77 That reminds me. How long has it been since we've known each other? When did I join the fuse page on GI? Damn... Feels like centuries ago.
And thanks. I was going for a new home vibe to it, something I had to go through a lot.

@StarterPack I was a charter member but never stayed. I wrote two blogs-one a Tidus blog. Oneof the "malcontents" would not be quiet about me, my name, my bio or lack of it and more. I left.
A few years later I get an invite to go to Gamers Paradise. I did and signed up. And left.
I am mata's guardian angel. No idea WHY I am I but I am. Ask him about the yearly Christmas Card sometime. Since i am that I went to both places in mid 2017 and saw what was going on between these two groups. I tries, as Ash did (and she had authority to) to be peacemaker. I was now the eternal enemy of Gamers Paradise who saw me as choosing sides. That feeling continues on the place they went.
I was able to assist getting mata off the self destructive past he was on. He was an invalid more or less. Helpless and home bound. He needed help in finding the man he used to be.
So you and I go back to summer 2017 although it does seem longer.

@Elandra77 Also, there is more than the meaning we both know. I would say, but I rather have myself break in tears right now. It's a personal thing I hate talking about. Writing it in this fashion was something that lifted something off of me. Anyone who is artistic enough will understand it or at least see why I wrote it in such vagueness.
I know this is late, but... Most of my responses are.

This is a great write and feels like there is a depth of truth to it that exists beneath the obvious. I can't help but wonder if you've lived this in some way....

@SW-User You can see right through me like water, can you?

I liked reading this a lot. I could feel the anxiousness at trying to locate friends and the gratefulness when you found them.
StarterPack · 22-25, M
@HeavenBesideYou Glad this conveyed that feeling. Thanks!
