I was nominated by @fathin-shihab for the "Love It/Shove It" challenge and this is my entry. I don't have too much time lately to write a lot on my blog. Personal duties and work are eating a lot of my time. So sorry @fathin-shihab, my entry won't be as long as yours.
Here are the rules:
List five things that you love
List five things that you really dislike
Use the tag #loveitshoveit
Tag five people or more to participate, but anyone can join in.
Love it
1 Family
Might sound cliche, and for lot's of people it might not matter, but for me my family matters a lot. The love and support from my wife, the energy from my kid, it would be hard to do without. I also have a very good relation with my parents and my parents in law.
2 Solving problems
Of course not every problem, I'm not Einstein, but real world practical problems are my thing. I'm not creative in a sense that I can design something beautiful, art is not my thing, I can appreciate it but I can't come up with it myself. Take for example our house. I'm the one who made it practical, thinking of all technicalities, my wife is the one who made it beautiful.
3 Helping others
It's so rewarding. I guess it's something I learned from my grandfather. He traveled to a pilgrimage twice a year for two weeks, just to help people voluntarily. When at home he visited sick and lonely people. When I was a kid I didn't realize 'what' he was doing but somehow it must be in the genes. I used to be a volunteer for the Red Cross but since the birth of my son I don't have that much time anymore and paused that. I'm also active in the local FabLab.
4 Pizza
That doesn't need much explanation does it? Pizza tonno does it every time for me.
5 Learning
My mother says that even when I was a kid I always wanted to learn something new. The moment I mastered something the fun was out of it and I moved on to something new. I remember myself going to the library all the time. Yes, I'm old enough to have known a world without internet. These days the internet is of course a an endless source to learn everything.
Shove it
- Leeches
I don't mean this specifically on Steem but most generally. I just hate it when people misuse whatever for their own benifit, especially when it harms others.
2 Liars
I don't mean criminals but just in the day to day life. I just don't get why. It complicates and it frustrates.
3 Panic attacks
From time to time I get ill and suffer from panic attacks. Those are really not fun periods. Luckily a have a lovely wife who supports me.
4 Cleaning
Again: lucky to have a wife ;-)
5 Women who spend too much time in the bathroom
I just like a natural woman. I understand women want to look good, but some just overdo it. It's caring about something I don't consider important at all. I makes me suspicious, it looks like lying about how you look, intentionally, to get something more by deceiving others, and I hate liars.
