Don't Be an NPC

Saturday, January 31, 2026

Good morning, The Wonderfell Way.

An easy pun for sure, but this journal is a record of where wonder falls every morning.

Life goes better with a sense of wonder. Perhaps if you've lost yours you might find a reignition switch here.

That's my hope.

I could of course name it For The Wynn, but I'm not talking to, or about, myself. This is For You.

Creative thought, more specifically poetical thinking, is sorely lacking from our days and ways of life. We're paying the price for it lately.

We're creators first; we build places for our dreams.

Really. That's what you are: a being made to build places for dreams.

How are your dreams? What are you building today?

If you don't know what dream you're creating, you're serving someone else's dream.

You're an NPC.

Don't be an NPC.

Unlock a few quests.

A quest is a dream you want to see made real. Making it real is the work of heroes.

And the way to live a purposeful life.

If you know how a story works, you know how to make your dreams come true.

You have a hope (dream), you take the steps (quest) to make it real (dream comes true).

It's why stories work; they're reflective.

Life lives the ways of story.

In order to have hope, you have to have a sense of wonder.

The all important: May-Be.

"I wonder... maybe things can be better if I..."

Find an NPC to help you get started. Gather your materials. Level up. Then go and make your dream real, Hero.

Thanks for reading, take care, and make wonderful this wonderful day.
