The Park Bench
I was sitting in the park yesterday, the same bench where I used to scroll Instagram and feel empty.
This time I opened #Nostr primal (nprofile…7f7e)
The first note said
"Stay humble, stack sats."
The second, someone posted a QR code and wrote "Built my own lightning node today."
That’s when it hit me: this isn’t social media, it’s a movement.
I sent a zap. Instantly got one back.
We both smiled behind our screens complete strangers, yet completely connected.
