Pokemon go took me on a feels trip today

Tyger · July 12, 2016, 04:38:42 PM

So I live in a pretty rural area but my girlfiend lives in town. Today we decided to just chill and ride around the town on bikes and play Pokemon go.

So there we slowly bike along and just enjoy the day and we stop at one of the gyms in the town. It's a little memorial park. It's just a small garden with some benches and an art installation made of glass. Well my girlfiend and I chill there and take down the gym. We get up and get ready to leave and I walk past the art installation and there's a plaque on the ground. It says "the remembering glass: in memory of _____" and a birth and death date

The name on the plaque was of my childhood friend who was hit by a truck and killed while we were in middle school. I moved out of the town and never knew that they had built that park as a memorial. He fucking loved Pokemon when we were kids. And now a park made for him is a Pokemon gym

He died over 10 years ago I didn't mean for this to be sad I meant for it to be touching

Even though I had class this morning, I walked around my friend's neighborhood with him and his gf until 3am. Made me miss doing simple and free things with my friends that didn't involve some sort of work like helping on personal projects are taking pictures at their shows.

Sad that he died and sad how you bumped into him.
