RE: G-dog gets in trouble: A text exchange between me and my wife Faith

in OCD4 years ago

Well, thank you. That's all very appreciated. I've been around the block a time or two so it's not really sour grapes or feeling put out or put upon. It's more of the fact that I've gone through waves of 'followers' or 'friends' here who have disappeared or moved on to some other aspect of HIVE and so I'm constantly starting over in that respect—there are still a few that are about, and you and a few others from the next to last wave are still around, but anyway. I keep building up engagement, the tide comes in, and the next thing I know, I'm back at it again. It gets tiresome. I'm not as prolific as some, but I feel I'm more consistent than others, and I don't tend to short form, so it takes time to put together a post, and if I feel like I'm starting over constantly with gathering a following of some sort, well, anyway, it goes against the grain.

As far as the break, I'm trying to say I didn't want to do it, or even felt the need to do it, it just happened, and fighting against it made it worse. So, eventually I just went with it and felt much better for it. I used to have all day to do this, now I don't. Such is life and that's okay. Better to have the income while the real world is still in fiat rather than not and hope for the crypto rush to appear.

So, anyway. I think I'm coming out of it a bit, which is good, and maybe we'll get some upward movement on prices instead of the eternal sideways cycle we seem to be in still.

Sort:  

Ok ok, I get it...Yes I have felt the same at times as some really cool people have disappeared for whatever reason. I guess for me I've made it about me (selfish?) meaning that I enjoy the process, the writing and how it makes me laugh sometimes, cry, happy, sad etc. I use it as a yardstick measurement so to speak, a way to measure or temper my thoughts, feelings or emotions. Do I have anything of value to add to the community? I have no clue...Only the community can decide that, but to me what i do here has personal value, and that's why I stay around.

That break came organically Glen, roll with it, as you have, and see where it leads. Back here? Maybe...Somewhere else? Who knows. Just be you mate, that's all you can ask of yourself.

P.s. Some upward movement on price would be nice too.
