That last paragraph of the End Poem is impressive! "We are everything you think isn't you". I never had much interest in computer games, so this is surprising.

Hey Rohn,

I worked in group home back home in Quebec and the kids loved playing Minecraft !

Sure feels exciting watching the storm brew doesn't it?

That 'end poem' is actually on Minecraft?? That is amazingly more intimate and profound than I would have given a game credit for. I missed out on the world of computer gaming, have had to get my profundity elsewhere, like your blogs. Thanks.

I needed to hear and read this today, and to understand that the big storm on the horizon will make a big mess but it won't destroy us. The kids will be OK, after all.

I can show you what Minecraft is, if you would like.

Minecraft is actually a mythology playground. If you wait long enough, monsters appear.
