Back From the Break So I'm Reconnecting With The Community

Just wanted to drop in with a quick update and share a little about where I’ve been lately.

You might’ve noticed I’ve been quiet for a bit. I've still managed to get my weekly silver report out, but other than that it's been crickets from me. The truth is, life got loud in other ways. Between travel, work obligations, and, honestly, a dip in motivation, I found myself unintentionally taking a break from creating and engaging here. I kept meaning to post something or check in, but the days got away from me and time slips by quickly these days.

My vacation travel was the good kind of chaos. With new places, new people, and a chance to reset a bit mentally. I might have to go more in depth about our time in Michigan's Upper Peninsula or all the time I have spent on the river searching for that next big catch.

Work, as usual, demanded more than its fair share of time and energy.There have been some big changes with layoffs and travel. To be honest somewhere along the way, the spark that usually fuels my creativity got a little dim.

I think it’s important to be real about that. We all go through seasons, and sometimes, even the platforms and communities we love can feel distant when our minds are elsewhere. I didn’t want to force content just for the sake of staying visible you guys deserve better than that, and so do I. Here's the thing, I missed it. With all the excitement around Bitcoin's new high I knew I had to see what was going on with our community.I missed the rhythm of sharing ideas, the feedback, the conversations, and that feeling of being part of a growing, decentralized corner of the internet.

Hive is unique in that way it gives you the space to step back, but it’s always here when you’re ready to plug back in. Trading does not allow for this and that's why I feel like I can take a step back knowing the community is here to support me.

So, this post is my way of saying: I’m back. Maybe not with a perfectly polished plan or daily posts lined up, but with a clearer head and a bit more energy.

Hive is always here, with open arms to welcome everyone.

Ah, life has a way of getting in the way of things and before you know it, you're drifting away from the things that truly matter to you.

There has so many buzzes going on around here and the crypto world, so It's nice that you got back in the nick of time.
Welcome back.

Thanks I think you are right life does have a way of getting in the way. I have felt behind on hive updates and politics for a while now.

Good to see you back anyway.
IT's never a bad thing to take a break if the interest isn't there but as long as you check back in at some stage you'll get hooked all over agian.

We've all done it form time to time and i'm still only half pace this year. Just too much else going on to put in the time that i would like.

I feel bad I left the guild down as I have been not very active on splinter lands too. I want that to change as well. I appreciate all the kind words since I think a lot of us have felt this way over the years.

We all have bad periods, come back how and when you feel like it, eventually you can just comment around if you don't feel like post

I have been lurking a bit but even commenting was getting hard. I just needed a reset and I'm trying to hold myself to a bit higher of standard. This was not the only hobby that I let slip during this period.

The UP and Michigan is underrated in my opinion. I have looked into moving to Marquette.

It is! We like to rock hunt and the variety up there is crazy. Not to mention I fly fish so the trout rivers are worth the bushwhacking.

I was just up in the UP myself. It's such an amazing place! I understand what you mean about needing to take a break!

Where did you end up we were up in the Houghton and Copper Harbor.

Not nearly that far! We were at Straits State Park for the weekend. Hoping to get back up to Keweenaw again soon.

Welcome back, can't way to see your daily blogs.

Glad to actually see you back. I have really missed your post and I am so sure that you are back to give us back to back value

In addition to work, vacations are also necessary. They relax the mind. That's my intention now. I'll also take a vacation as soon as the bull market arrives, because I've been working regularly for the past three years.

We all have a habit of reading each other's posts. When someone doesn't do it for a few days, that person definitely remembers that this person used to post every day.

Great read

Thanks I don't recognize your username so I appreciate you stopping by1
