CALL YER MA
I think a lot about who I am to other people in the world–particular who I am to strangers as a mere concept in their lives.
Today this woman called our information desk and said, “my son’s band is playing tonight. I want to come see him, but he never answers his phone…..I want to be there. Have you heard anything about his band?”
And I felt so bad for this lady but I’m not in the music scene around here so I had to tell her no, sorry.
Five hours later, I’m hiking and run into a group of guys setting up for some outdoor performance, and as I watch them unload the drums it hits me.
“Hey,” I said, “are y’all in a band?”
They said yeah and smiled and I told them “one of your moms called today. She wants to watch you play, but she can’t get a hold of you. Call your mom.”
And they all pulled out their phones and started discussing whose mom it probably was as they presumably dialed their own.
And now, unless we meet again and recognize each other, that’s who I’ll be forever to those guys–some mysterious courier for mom-messages who came out of the woods and told them their mom called.
I didn’t even tell them why their mom called me. Who am I to their mom?? Nobody even asked. They just took my word for it and called their mothers.
Amazing.

TOO MANY FINS TO WORRY ABOUT SINS
do fish ever get to repent? or are they doomed to swim around forever bearing the sins we have tossed to them to consume over the many years?

When the immortal character realizes they love a mortal too much and has finally accepted the mortal will die one day of old age and then the mortal almost dies because of some punk ass dared to hurt them? They might be traumatized but I'm all salivation station.

I see you over there with 100% valid tags
Not.... exactly. Price of Milk Karl Urban is a fairy tale hero AND HAS SHORT HAIR.
But really this film is the bomb.com and more people should see it if they can.

Being with your person is magic. Conversation topics be like, "what would be easier during the apocalypse to burrow through the floors to other apartments or the walls?" And "have you ever thought about what stabbing someone would feel like?" <3
