How can one be grouchy when Spring is almost here!
I have spent the last week a bit frustrated and confused about the future of steem and the tron takeover and all of that. I had lost my zest for creating new content and the joy of writing here, overall.
At the same time my real life as a farmer required my presence out in the fields every day, a line of work physically demanding on one hand but also totally healing on the other.
Yesterday I spared a few minutes to take some pictures of the blooming almond trees that are scattered around the olive grove. Their beauty was so overwhelming that completely changed my cranky mood and send me straight into creation orbit once again!
Of course, I am still powering down, getting ready for the worst case scenarios, I still know that steem, as we know it may have come to it's end but you know something, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all!
The importance of steem is not the money that we may or may not make, it's not the name or the blockchain's manipulations, the true value of steem is in all of you, the real people behind the usernames that made it what it is. Meeting you was the best thing that happened to me the past two years that I have spent around here and if this digital environment becomes too uncomfortable I am sure that we'll find (or make) a better one.
But until the party is over, I'll keep sharing my pictures and my thoughts, not in anticipation of financial rewards but for the pleasure of sending my message out there, to you!
One of those shots is going to be my entry for the Photo 52, 2020 Challenge, Week Number 8. The theme this week is free and although the pictures of this post are a perfect much for, at least 4, of the upcoming themes, i might as well use it now and will see what I'll come up with for the next ones!
All the pictures and the words are mine.
