What to write about? Do I have anything to offer? Should I even bother?
This is what I was thinking before starting to write this post.
I joined this community back on July 10th and I had no idea what it was about. It had been a couple of months since I started to explore the world of cryptocurrencies. It would be tempting to speak about my experiences in this new (and for the most part unknown) technology to the rest of the world.
Nah...it would be boring. Don’t get me wrong I think that blockchain will play a major role in our daily lives in the not so distant future. But...every day I see posts about this & that coin...this and that new development, etc. I will leave that to the experts.
So I’ve been lurking, reading, made a few comments here & there, wrote o couple of crappy posts. Nothing of substance.
One thing is for sure...I want to stay anonymous.
Maybe the reason that I can’t find what to write about is that I no longer feel passion for anything. Maybe I should write about that: “onthewwayout the passionless blogger”.
A few years back I had a coworker that used to work his butt off. He would do as much overtime as possible. Sometimes he did 14 or 15 hour days for weeks at a time. It’s as if he was in a hurry to make as much money as possible. Then one day he was struck by a truck crossing the street trying to get back to work in time after taking a break. And that was it.
This happened about eight years ago. I remember it very well because I had just gotten of the bus and he was laying on the ground while the paramedics were giving him medical assistance. I asked someone else from work that was looking at the scene who it was since he was too beat up for me to be able to recognize him.
Anyway, later that evening we received the news that he had passed away. We were all sad and in disbelief. Sometimes I wish to have some of the fire that burned within him.
But no
My older brother once told me that I am like a vulcan...partially he is correct.
As I’m typing these words I realize that I can use this platform to get my thoughts out of my head. That way they will stop bugging me.
Maybe I can connect with others this way. It’s getting late and it’s been a long day so I think I’ll stop for today. We’ll see if I can pour some more random thoughts tomorrow.
