Lets be honest here, we never finished building that city.

I will be 76 in September of this year and I remember my grandson playing Minecraft. I would sit for hours and watch him build whole cities. Now, my grandson has graduated from High School this year is and moving on with his life. But what great times we had together and what great memories I have of the times when we were together.

"You never quit minecraft, you just take a really long break from it." -A wise man.

Minecraft music triggers a deep sadness and nostalgia in me. I'm so grateful that I grew up at exactly the right time, when Minecraft was just coming onto the market. Unfortunately, that period of my life is over. Minecraft still exists, but the people associated with it are long gone. It's like revisiting the house you grew up in, the house is still there, but the people who made it a home are no longer there.

i used to play minecraft with my dad. he wasn't very good at it and i was often waiting for him to catch up with me, but he always wanted to play with me and he never got tired of it even though he struggled. he passed away from cancer last autumn and, while i still love playing, i don't think i'll ever be able to play it again without thinking of him and how much i miss his gamertag a few blocks away and his huge pack of dogs he'd always tame. i miss you, dad.

It's fascinating on how such a lonely game can feel so much like home.

I played minecraft for the first time when i was in 10th grade. I'm 28 now, and I can hear my 4yo son playing it in the other room. Time flies, enjoy it while you can!

Don't be sad that it's over, be happy it happened.

I never realize how good things are until they're gone. Having the liberty to spend hours creating and exploring on this game as a kid was a wonderful experience.

This whole thread gives me depression but I can't stop reading. We all share common pain in here. Staring in window now, realizing that there's gonna be a guy across the road who feels the same way, for all days gone, for all those adventures that are in a past. Gives me some peace to know I'm not alone in this. Millions of us across the globe. You are not alone too.

This game is like an old friend that’s always there for you. Through thick and thin. Bless Notch and Mojang for giving us a timeless classic.

"Behind a man,who just placed his last block on minecraft,is just a kid,who placed his first"

This comment section feels like the one KZfaq had in 2016's n 2017's everyone sharing their feelings n expressing their experiences. I just love this all!!

I played Minecraft after elementary school everyday with a friend I met online, she and I would imagine we were warriors in the builds we made, we "fought off the endless waves of evil", we were a family one moment, the villagers next, then the invaders ourselves. I remember getting a message one night while playing, of her saying that she won't be on for a while but to please continue being a knight, and I assumed that meant she got off because it was late. 2 days later I learned she passed away from cancer, and her parents called me to read the letter she made me. That's where "rubyheart" comes from. I refuse to get rid of that world, I can't, I go back on there to build onto our chaos of a world, go mining, slay a zombie, and add a new flower to her grave I made her. Minecraft gave me more then a friend.

It's crazy to see how peaceful the comment section is compared to other vids. that's all because we all have experienced the same feeling

Damn 2011-2015 was such a blast thinking of it

I still play in the world we had, me and him. I built him a grave in it, his dog is still sitting next to it, and I join him sometimes. I miss you, man.

Just reading the comments while listening to this music brings this surreal yet peaceful feel, as if we are all connected... As if I am being taken back in time with everyone in the comment section.... Feels almost as if we all played together and experienced the same things. As if.. We all know each other.

The adult world seems like hell tbh. Having to fit into the mold and be expected to know everything but when youre a kid people are kinder, more caring of your interest and passions, and you feel mostly happy. You don’t have a lot of memories yet so nostalgia doesn’t exist for you and you’re more focused on the moment. But now we’re big kids. Partners drama fear college all that. Our parents are aging, maybe some of our grand parents or family members are no longer here. Idk about anyone else but I feel like I’m empty..? Idk I feel like I’m hollow inside. Missing days where we weren’t judged basically at all. I don’t want to put up an act forever now. But we don’t have a choice. We don’t..

41:50 that USB eject sound hits different

I played minecraft during Covid, One my best memories is logging on to my friend's smps after online school. I'll never forget those times

I'm trying not to cry, I have been playing Minecraft for years, and I haven't in a while. This hurts because I know that I can never go back to my early days of playing Minecraft, it hurts because I know that I'm not the same person anymore. It hurts because I've become someone who is too afraid to take chances, the same way I could before. It hurts, but it's nice. I don't know why I'm drawn to it even though it hurts me. I can't explain it, but the nostalgia hurts, and heals me at the same time. I've evolved so much as a person, and Minecraft was a big part of that. I love this, even though it hurts me, I love it. Sorry for rambling, but I thought I needed to share my thoughts. Have a good day everyone

Miss the good old days…

"Don't cry because it's gone, smile because you had it."

Every time I think about the past when I was a kid, I always felt like crying...

I got introduced to Minecraft by my own kid. I can assure you that the music isn't only nostalgic - it's genuinely beautiful.

It might not be fancy, it might not be big, but as long as the furnace is next to the crafting table and a dog is by my bed, its home.

For some people it's a smell that brings back really old memories; for me it's definitely music. Nothing beats hearing this music play in the middle of the night, when you and your friends were pulling an all-nighter of Minecraft.

Nostalgia for the past is actually a torment that you don't want to go away...❤

Makes me miss when things were stress free and life was easy.

When I come back to Minecraft, from time to time, I am astonished at how much everything has changed. I still remember the day they added fireworks or trading or cats. How excited we, 12-13-year-old kids, were talking about how we found our first diamonds, how cool our houses looked, and how we were still wondering if Herobrine was real. Hell, I even created this KZfaq account so I could be subscribed to my favorite Minecraft-creators. Minecraft gave us so much - place to retreat and escape, place to be creative, place to even make friends; I am now 25 years old and this all happened more than 10 years ago for me. I have changed, and the world around me has changed. But when I hear those first notes, I become that little boy again running back from school to play Minecraft, to find his first diamonds...

I've started playing Minecraft when I was 7 on my mom's tablet. Now I am 18 and soon to be graduating college. Time does not fly, it teleports as Endermen do. They are always somewhere present but when you turn, they are gone.... Love to all Minecrafters out there!!

This makes me so sad, yet so at peace. My brother who's in high school now, is too cool to play Minecraft with his older brother now, and that's where the sadness kicks in. But yet, I'm at peace knowing I have those memories to cherish forever.

I don't think you guys need to be so down. You're still alive, and you can still play minecraft. I think what hurts about growing up is that sometimes it feels like as a child, it was easier to have fun, and there was less stress all around. I used to think the same way too. But I've grown up, and though I'm still young, I realize that it isn't the case. I'm very happy when I listen to this music. I think about all the times I watched minecraft videos on youtube, and the times I played with my friends. I laughed so much. But it wasn't all there was ! I was also sad and upset, from my own insecurities, school, bullying, etc. It wasn't all rosey, just an escape. Today is not so different. You may have different tastes and you may find minecraft not as exciting as it was back then. But there's so many other things you can choose to do instead, that make you happy, that you can also share with your friends. When time goes by, and you get even older, the stressful and painful moments will also be able to fade in light of the happier ones. You will be able to look back at each time of your life and, no matter how much pain and darkness you had to endure, be able to look at all of the moments that made them bearable. If you sulk now on how your childhood is over, or your youth is over, you'll get older and get filled with regrets that you spent your life trying to maintain running sand within your hand. Enjoy the current moment ! Find little things that make you happy. Old things disappear so that new ones can take their place. Enjoy what's here and what you have :)

This music is the aching realization that you can't ever go back to something you once had and those happy moments will only remain distant memories.

Started playing minecraft in 2013 and I still play it to this day. I have made so many great memories with my brother. I wish that I can turn back in time and live those moments again.

you never know how much you loved being a kid till you remember being truly happy. minercaft will always have a soft spot in my heart and for that im grateful

I remember being a kid and playing Minecraft after school. Now I’m an adult playing Minecraft after college classes😅

Minecraft always will be my safe place. It Doesn't matter if I don't open it for weeks, months or even years, I will always come back where I was happy...

Minecraft.. nobody ever knew what this little block game could do to the whole world when it got released Nobody knew it would become a safe space when something bad happened Nobody knew that the game would live on so long in the hearts and minds of children, adults and even older folks Nobody knew that the little block game, called Minecraft, would surpass every game that existed at the time, past and future But everybody knew they found the perfect place to relax, forget everything and just enjoy life

As I read the description, an emptiness filled my heart. There isn't any reliving those old memories you had so long ago. Minecraft with friends, building and mining, it was all so simple at one point. It's too far gone now. It was lonely as a singleplayer world, but not empty. Only the sound of your footsteps echoing the world as you build your first house, craft your first tool, and beat your first enemy. Minecraft was always there for us, like an old friend. And it will never leave us. There is always beauty in sadness. You just have to find it.

Many of us grew up on this game, but now that we've grown up, it fills us up with a bittersweet feeling that can make us feel empty. But feeling empty isn't the end. We feel it now, just because we're more aware of the world than we were in our childhood. We no longer live in the moment, we attend to the future, and that emptiness is the start of that. The emptiness is temporary, only there because we haven't filled up our lives with the things that matter. But those things will come in time, just be patient and build your future the way we all did. One block at a time.

I was already in college by the time Minecraft became a thing, but despite being in my 30s now, some part of me will always be a kid. During my years in college, I had a paid internship at a local library's computer tech. I was put in charge of a youth program wherein the library hosted a _Minecraft_ server. I loved that job. I loved seeing the smiles on their faces. Even when we had the one kid who griefed the server, and was banned, we watched him change as a person as a consequence of his harm, watched him give sincere apologies in person to those he had hurt, and how he became a better person for it and was eventually unbanned. I miss those days. It was a minimum wage job but you hardly had to pay me at all. It wasn't work at all. It inspired those kids. Inevitably I had to leave college and the program, but that's not exactly why my time there had ended. A harsh lesson for myself as well. Be weary of when you speak in anger, for you never know who might be listening. I got into an unsavory argument with someone online about some BLM controversy at the time, and they emailed my place of work. To be fair, what I was saying was not nice. It was born of frustration and anger, and the person who spoke out against me was not merely someone trying to take a vengeful stab at my livelihood for disagreeing with them on the internet. There was a genuine concern for how my sour attitude might affect children. Ironically I had actually found and confronted the person who reported me prior to being fired, and they explained things to me in a way I came around to understand. I even apologized, and we seemed squared. They were even willing to vouch for me to the library, though for some insane reason I declined. I thought everything was resolved, but it wasn't about what I believed. It was how I conducted myself that bothered the library's administration. They didn't even know that I had resolved things with the person, but it didn't matter. They cited safety concerns, which may have been part of it, but truly I think it was more about how hateful of a person I was being in the original outburst I had online. The library fired me, but they never told the kids why. I was so ashamed in myself that I didn't even have the heart to say goodbye. It hurt too badly. I left quietly, accepting that I was wrong, thinking that this would just be a deep regret for the rest of my life that would never be fixed. A few months later however, the library mailed me letters of thanks and goodbyes from all the kids. As far as they knew, the only reason I left was because it was time to move on. Even now I cry about it. It brought such a smile to my face, and some relief to my heart. The library wouldn't have done that if they genuinely thought I was a bad person. I was flawed, perhaps, but we all live and grow. Same as I watched those children grow over the course of three years, I still had some growing of my own to do.

It's wonderful and incredible to see that all of the people here come from different places on earth but are united for only one thing, the passion for this game and this music. I am proud to be part of this community ❤️

All these heartwarming comments are great, but the windows disconnect sound at 41:49 caught me really off guard.

"We've had our fun- we've laughed, we've smiled, we've raged and cried. we've gained, and we've lost. Update after update, we've seen the years come and go. But it's time to say goodbye." "It's been 13 long years- You've grown, far beyond what anyone expected from you. You've done some amazing things- and yeah, it was hard sometimes. I was what you came back to. When you wanted to spend some time with friends, when you wanted to escape from a long day, it was me you relied on. Sometimes you modified me in different ways, and sometimes you played me how I am." "Times have changed- and you're so much more than I could've ever hoped you'd be. I'm proud of you." "Though you may never play me again, I will always hold your creations dear. From the extravagant mansions, to the mediocre houses, to the humble dirt hut you built when you first played me. All of them are beautiful." Farewell, old friend."

bro i was 30 minutes in when i just started bawling my eyes out for no reason. idk if it’s the nostalgia or the comments or just the overall vibes of the music but i have not cried like this in such a long time. it honestly felt so healing - thank you for uploading this

The first time I played Minecraft was in the 4th grade. I never stopped playing, I continued through elementary school, middle school, and even high school. Right now i'm in college, i still think about all the great times I had playing Minecraft. Occasionally, I do load up my old worlds seeing all the awesome things me, my friends, and family built and all the fun we had... the nostalgia is almost unreal at times. Minecraft is by far the greatest video game of all time.

I was twelve years old, you could say I was a teenager, and I used to play minecraft and it was an unforgettable feeling of carelessness, something that, alas and ah, I can't describe now... because I don't remember much of it, except for fleeting snippets that sometimes pop up in my head. I remember going to different servers, one of the best ones was mysteryworld. and it's true, for me it's one of the best and unforgettable servers where I ever spent my unconscious period of time. i loved to go to servers with free donate, creativity... at night when everyone is sleeping. I liked to just fly around the world, watching how someone just survived and built a house with the help of extracted resources, and someone just entered a command and inserted a house already built by someone else on the plot. sometimes played this heartbreaking and quiet music that made me involuntarily become pleasant, I did not turn it off and did not turn down the sound because it was already not the best and I on the contrary wanted to make louder and just listen. I also loved to play Bedwars, yes, my brother once installed cheats and I played with them, because the server almost had no anti-cheat. now, of course, it is corrected. but on the server I do not play, it is too much he changed for the worse .... I used to love to play Battle of the Builders, where I was either one of the best builders or one of the worst. several times I made it to the top by the number of victories. i used to play at night, because I have Far Eastern time, and when it's nighttime for me, it's evening or early afternoon for others. it was an unforgettable time, but it's a pity that I'm 17 now and I won't be able to enjoy this crazy virtual world built by just one person again.... P.S: Thank you for playing, Markus Persson!

I opened the video and got chills. I cannot describe the nostalgia this brings to me.

I miss the old days so much, i remember coming home from school and laying on my bed watching stampy cat and playing minecraft. Man, how i wish i could go back in time...

When I was about 4 years old, my brother and I would play minecraft togther on his Xbox 360. he was probably about 9 or 10 at the time, and we loved it. We would play for hours and well, now we don't. I'm 14 and he is 20, soon moving out of the house and away from me. He promised be that before he moves out, we will recreate our favorite childhood memories one last time. Play Black Ops 2 together, Play some minecraft together, and play one last game of monopoly. I'm going to miss him a lot when he moves out, but I'm so glad he opened me up to minecraft. Minecraft has brought me and my friends over the summer when we have nothing to do, and even though it has changed a lot thoughout the years, it's still the game. Minecraft will always be Minecraft. Never take anything for granted, and enjoy the time you have with the ones closest to you, because one day, it won't be the same, and people will age. And some won't make it with you.

I’m 22 years old and I log in till this day every now and then to look at the ancient builds and even update some or build something new. But it’s not the same, I use to play with my younger brother who left the world too soon in 2018…. I will keep building for him, I built shrines and statues in memory of him. Nothing hurts more than losing a brother who you shared your meals with and shared moments building thousands feet high towers and building complex bridges.. It was really metaphorical and foreshadowing that he was always building up.. One day we’ll see each other again in the sky, and we’ll keep building bro. Rest In peace, Hermano mío. I have a daughter now too. I will teach her the game and keep the tradition going… Good luck to everyone out there and never stop building! No matter how old you are. The Minecraft world is timeless, while we’re being timed.

I think the added sounds of the birds and the ambiance add to the fact that the music doesn't feel the same anymore. It's almost like the music isolated by itself is like how we were as kids in our bedrooms alone playing Minecraft until the sun came up. The sound of the birds is like all the added clutter, unable to have that peace by ourselves when nobody expects anything from us. Nowadays you never catch a break with everybody telling you what to do and how to live your life. You gotta do what you want because after all, it's your life, so why live under somebody else's terms. Just be yourself and live your own life man

For so many people this was an escape from reality, a savior from an abusive family the one time in the day where kids, adults anyone got to be free and do whatever they liked, I remember always playing with my cousins and siblings or even just by myself and it’s just such a peaceful place to be and really helped me through a lot as I know it did with so many people. This game will always have a place in my heart

Life passed so quickly. The first time I played Minecraft was in 2014, 10 years later and I am no longer a child. Nostalgia for the old good days.

That villigaer that walked by scared the shit outa me 😭

Nostalgia overload

My parents used to tell me they were concerned I wasn't going to have any good memories because I spent all my time playing minecraft. Boy were they wrong. The description really just got me going, I'm crying as I write this. I remember my first Xbox 360 world in that weird beginner castle-ish world u start with, and then my first superflat. I remember survival with kids much older than me that treated me like their kid which I was oblivious to at the time but can only thank those kids a billion times over for making my times special. I also remember purchasing all the weird little Skyrim or Halo world packs and the texture packs too, which I had fun exploring and tinkering with. I always hated the music because it made me feel alone, but now it just reminds me how good it is to be alive. At the end of the day, we're all just sacks of flesh with stupid behaviors we call "personalities", but the only truth to it all is (in my opinion), God, Up, and Down. Enjoy it while it lasts, and never let it go for as long as you live people. Remember during dark times that there's someone out there rooting for you. I'm rooting for you. Yes, you, reading this. You might think I'm just saying this to everyone but I see you (not in a creepy way). I understand you. I was you. It's the middle of the night or early in the morning, your staring at your phone or computer in the dark wondering why things are the way they are. You wonder how it got this way. You long for the good and not the endlessly exhausting cycle of life. And while I can't tell you it changes, because it really doesn't, I can tell you two things; for one, you get better at this life stuff. You really do. You won't notice it until it becomes worth living, but stick through it in the mean time. And 2., The storm will pass and the sun will shine, so long as you wait through time. I probably got super off topic here but it just started to flow, so I'm going with it.

I Graduate 5/16/24 and seeing this game throughout my life is just astonishing. recently I lost the ability to play it because the disc snapped. it feels like a huge chunk of me died when that happened. the youtubers, parodies, personal moments, merchandise I've collected...it all feels special. Minecraft is special.

"The first house you have built. The first armor set you built. your first night survived. Amazing and unforgetable but Lost to the ever consuming reality of time passing." "Friends quit gaming and moved on. Yet there is still an exciting feeling about starting a new survival world again."

*Waking up in a small cottage, you listen to the music this world plays. It has always been here. It used to torture you, reminding you of the pet you lost, that loved this music. He was your only friend at the time. Now you take care of his children, who also love this music. The music doesn’t bother you as much anymore. It reminds you that you have to move on for him and his family.*

I started Minecraft at 13 years old. I'm 24 now. I still play Minecraft servers with friends and make new houses. Don't let times or age dictate feeling how you want too

Nostalgia for the past is actually a torment that you don't want to go away...

I miss old minecraft,not becuase of the simplicity of it or the old textures but becuase kf pure nostalgia,go to scool,come home,turn on xbox 360 and play minecraft legacy edition,that was a great time,and im sad ill never see that again,minecraft is truly a magical game

I miss Stampylonghead, DanTDM, Skydoesminecraft, and the others. I wish they would come back but they aren’t.😔

I remember introducing this game to my twin daughters when they were about 5. I was a young dad (my wife and I had them in our late teens) so they grew up gaming with me, and I watched them grow up to move onto online games ie the Souls-like games, Genshin, etc. My daughters are 16 now, and I see how talks of driving, college, world judgements, affects them, by the looks on their faces and through further conversation. I've read some comments left by people who are concerned about the same things. Growing up is inevitable guys, it's sad but true. We have to accept it, and once that settles in, you can enjoy more of the present time of your youth, rather than stressing about the things that are out of your control. You all will be ok, trust me. Just make good decisions and do what you have to do.

When i listen to this music, i remember being a little girl in my brother's room, playing minecraft on his x box. I'd play in the evenings, when it was already dark, and i'd build simple brick houses, and i loved it. Now i'm in high school and my brother’s in Canada, so when i listen to this music i can only think of him. Time flies and listening to this melody makes me feel a twinge of sadness, because i know that i will never be a child again and that i will never experience things in the same way again.

I started playing this game when it was just Minecraft. No updates. No quartz. Just classic, the tutorial and all. I'm going to high school next year. It feels like just yesterday I was the 5-year-old boy laughing and building the most obscure things with my imagination. I'm going to miss all of the memories I made with this game. This game is the sole representation of my childhood.

Minecraft made my childhood I am 15 now but I still play it

I was one of the many players that bought Minecraft after a friend showed me the Alpha version. I'm 26 now and I will never stop playing Minecraft it's such an awesome game.

I used to play minecraft in my neighbors house. I bought a dvd and start playing, my brother didn't like to play, until he saw me playing, so i bough a new controller, and i discover a new friend in my own house. We play worlds and worlds of minecraft for a least 10 years in our xbox 360. Some day, our little cousin came in our house, and we present for he the game, and he loved. Me and my brother knew that we teach him to play, and he gonna teach his little brother one day. I was 6 wen started playing, my brother was 4. Today i am 18, and my cousin are 6 and his brother 4. Never, nothing, will touch so deep in my soul. Thanks mates! Enjoy the journey, until it became only memories!

Minecraft WAS the place I'd go to to escape the dark and sad times in my life I hope the new kids appreciate it like I did 🥲

I’m gonna cry now bro, like I miss them days where you would wake up on a snow day and play Minecraft all day by yourself or with the homies.

ITS APRIL OF 2024. Who's still playing minecraft and still listening to there music,still building the community of MINECRAFT! im a filipino,15 years old,and im a proud MINECRAFT PLAYER!

Minecraft evokes very strange feelings in me. I can’t quite discern them, but this makes me want to go and play it. I haven’t played in a few months. Me and my friends started a survival world, one of them lived in a bunker, one of them lived in a treehouse, another lives in a village, while i live in a simple shack upon a desert island. it is good to play gamed like these.

I've been playing minecraft for over 12 years now. I've been watching these Minecraft music nostalgia videos for some years now and they've always hit deep. But now that I'm actually 18, it all just feels so much realer. Hard to believe that by all definitions, my "childhood" is over now.

Honestly, its not the adult life that scares me. Its the idea of doing it alone. So far I've spent all my moments with someone helping me through it, but i know the time will come where i have to go it alone. Thats the truly terrifying part.

I used to play minecraft for hours everyday for 10 years until I graduated High School 2 years ago. Thoses songs just gave me a brutal reality check that I'm now an adult and I haven't played or even touched a video game for a while. The time when I had no problems other than what would be my next project on minecraft after school is long gone. I think I'm gonna go for a walk in my city after this video just to think about my life, I really need it.

We don't quit minecraft We're just taking a long break until we back

One cool thing about this game is that they keep the older versions, sometimes I go back just to play my old maps, I love it.

"One Day We Can Look Back At Where We Started And Be Amazed By How Far We've Come"

Coming back to this makes me miss my old friends who helped me build an entire underground living area in a crevice. We filled in the lava with dirt and gravel and built an apartment block into the walls, we had a village we built with shops and working production lines to trade with one another and a long rail way from everyone's villages to interconnect them. Took us 3 months to finish. Everyone is alive and well and doing their own things now but I jumped on there last week for the first time since 2016. The Greek Mythology pack was the last thing I experienced in Minecraft. That had me feeling a whole different type of nostalgia. I miss my friends, the stuff my ex and I made together is still there, frozen in time forever. I screwed things up with her and hurt her really badly emotionally and regret it and sometimes I remind myself how awful I was back then by going back to those places and realize how lucky I was. I have a good life now though, learned a lot from that big mistake of an affair I had. I have 3 kids, a wife, house decent job and rebounded from sui***al depression quite well the past couple of years. Minecraft is truly a magical place full of memories good and bad. Never forget the bad ones because you learn from those and become a better person.

"A tear drops as the moonlight reflects off the water, ripples form as the water slowly converges back into that one spot, a happiness now held, turned bittersweet as memories rush over you once again like an endless tidal wave crashing from side to side, only to once again become still. And you finally realize that while life may never be the same, those memories will forever remain unchanged, to those who have passed, and those who are still grieving from a passing of a loved one, always remember... The only time they truly die is when their memory is forgotten, such as the memories of that child you once were, when life was carefree and simple.... Never forget who, and what you love." - A Once Forgotten Visage, Your own memories

I feel as if I'm the only one in my friends in real life and online that reminisces the most about the past... Though I have moved past it, I love to keep the memories alive and checking in with them, though they never give me the same energy back :(

You dont miss the good old days you just miss the way you felt back then, its all gone now so you just want to go back to when things were simpler. When things were better.

who just wants to forget everything and play it all over again just like as a kid booting up ur good old 360 and hearing the soundtrack playing in the back

This reminded me more on when I was building a base with my friends for the first time playing minecraft together as I learned how to make a private server. It was a lot of fun just talking with each other, discussing about the base, taking the materials together, we enjoyed all the time we did everything together. We ended up making an aquarium base, where we dig underground below the sea and change the wall into windows, It was so beautiful and amazing for us after all the team effort. Even more amazing is how my friend figured what shaders are and tried using it to see how our base looks like with better lighting and stuff and man, I remember feeling really proud with all our efforts in that base and it has such a homey feel to it when seeing the screenshots he took of it. If only I learned what backing up a world is, I could've archive it... sadly it's gone forever, but the memories will still be there in my mind and heart.

This music always reminds me of my grandpa, I taught him how to play and I used to spend hours every day playing with him, building random stuff.. man the way time flies

I think I realized why Minecraft means so much to us. It represents life as we're meant to live it, life as it's always been, life before the modern industrial age. You spend your time in nature, exploring, building your own house, growing your own crops, hunting your own food, often doing these things with those closest to you. Life is slow, tranquil and beautiful. You're not a cog in a failing machine. This probably sounds obvious to everyone, but for some reason I'm just realizing it now...

The happy and sad memories inside you are fighting each other. It's too bad that we'll never be able to experience these memories again :(

Every time i hear minceraft music i can feel some sort of doors opening in my mind with thousands of memories being unlocked together with so much nostalgia and this feeling that i can't name, somewhat happy yet empty because although i know how nice it was at that time i know it is impossible to experience the same thing again. Take care of yourself guys.

I remember playing this game back when I was 12 in 2012. My mom was playing music for herself or for my little brother. Sometimes singing in the background while I went online with one of my first headsets to speak to a friend from England, a friend from Canada, a friend from Ohio. Everyone together having fun as kids and enjoying the game together despite the distances that physically separated us. That was on the PS3. Now, 2023 at 23 years old, I have the PS5, a PC I learned to build myself, and a license in a specific field of work as well as hitting the gym. Aside from having obtained so much and played so many years with the same friends and fortunate enough to be able to call these people my close friends, I'm now missing my mother from my life. She moved onto the next life and told me how proud and grateful she was of me but I just wish that her suffering is over. I would love to still have her here to hold her hand and give her a kiss on the forehead but my life now continues without being able to do it until the rest of my days here on Earth. I am grateful for everything and gave my all for her but I wish she could see how strong I've become now and if I was ever given the option to give up my possessions to be able to speak to her once more I would. I wish for nothing but health and happiness to you all and I will continue to live happily and with a smile on my face for everything I stand for. Find your spark, creativity, reason and you will feel a peace in your heart despite maybe being put through tough times. I'll never give up what makes me happy even if I'm grown up : )
