Wishing that too. And yeah, It’s not just the rescue, it’s the way people kept showing up for something that wasn’t even theirs to carry.
Also, Sorry for the late reply, got lost in the Himalayas again,..… happens.]]></description>

That’s a really interesting way of putting it. I like the idea that it’s not about things being “meant to be,” but about people choosing to stay with something when they could’ve walked away. That feels closer to what actually happened here.]]></description>

Sorry for the late reply, was off in the Himalayas again….. happens more often than it should.
And I’m really glad this one gave you that feeling again <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2764.png" alt="❤" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2764.png" alt="❤" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>

Sorry for the late reply, was out in the Himalayas again… old habit I can’t seem to shake.
And yeah, that’s what got me too it didn’t feel like a decision he overthought, more like something he just followed through on because it felt right. Glad you felt it too <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2764.png" alt="❤" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>
