RISE TO THE OCCASION ...

in #steem6 years ago


Last Monday I had an appointment at the
town hall of the city where I was born.

This town hall is at less than 150 meters distance from
the fountain on the picture here below.

And ... this same fountain is also at less
than 150 meters distance from where I was born.

(btw. for those of you who are totally confused now: I wasn't born in the town hall)

Anyway, because of being a bit too early
I took a quick walk in the park.
Where this fountain,
after having been out of order for a very long time,
was UP and running again

(hallelujah, was this a sign?)



Quite a bit of useless information
I realise now while writing this.
Garbage in fact.

The real message I wanted to get out is that:

I just powered up 4.5K STEEM
and ...
got another 5.5 waiting to "jump in".


If I can,
Anyone can

RISE TO THE OCCASION!

Orca status right around the corner...

Great job mate

Yeah Orca, still some buying to do though. But at these prices, (and even if it does go a bit lower) in the long run you can not lose.

Thanks amigo.

Dammit...whenever I come close to you, you always make a huge jump (SP wise). 😂😂😂

But you are right mate. In the long run you can only win. And these prices are way too attractive to not buy some. If my overall purchases were at these prices I would have more than 60K SP 😥😥

Know what you mean mate. Experienced exactly the same.

Being (somewhere) at the right time and especially Acting at the right time is always the biggest challenge.

On the other hand: that makes life exiting in the end; Challenges.

Although it would be very convenient at certain moments; without challenges life would be boring also. And our results obtained by efforts with ups and downs, afterwards will be much more satisfying.

50k target then? That will be nice if/when things start to change price-wise.

Good luck!

Am halfway.
Looks like there's some movement/stability ...
Thanks mate.

Not garbage at all!
I like your short and sincere posts;)
the fountain is just wonderful! Nothing is senseless in this life, it is for sure a sign. Of what? Maybe of your success and fast rise soon after your power up?
I'd like to make it too, but I've hard money times exactly when cryptos fall dow, shit happens. Investments are not my way maybe;))

You did quite a good job yourself by building up a very decent amount of SP without really buying Steem. Your investing in time to me is the same as buying Steem. I'm just lucky (although I work hard for it in daily life) that I can afford to buy every now and then.

btw, sorry for offtop.
speaking abou the resteem you've made. If I get the idea right, now the politics of steemit is against using bots because they vote for any kind of content, including real trash?
so if I sometimes use them, I should stop? Or I should just choose carefully what kind of a post I choose for them?
Actually, for a long time I was absolutely against them and didn't use them, but then I saw some of my frinds here did it, and their feedbacks were positive, low profit but still profit. In the situation of so low prices, people are ready to get at least something more.
Personally for me it's pleasure just to see such sums for my posts. Honey for my eyes;) even if it's paid by me;))

You don't have to worry if you use one just for promoting a bit your post.
But there are people who post (for example) only one picture, and use 6 or 7 bidbots to promote it.
It's this kind of bidbot abuse that was meant in that post that I resteemed.

Thanks:)
Yes, I tried my best, and I hope it will be rewarded one day. You invest, so you wait for price rising,and it inspires me;)
Investing time.. yeah, I like your comparison. Many people don't know what they would prefer to lose more - money or time. "Thanks God, I didn't invest money, only made 1000866 posts" - they say. It is huge amount of time. It can never be returned back. Dangerous investment too.

Lovely fountain and soon your steem fountain would give you a wet relief of dividends @smasssh :D

For all of us I hope my friend ...

I feel much closer to you now knowing all this

A random fountain is working in an unknown random town but by no means the most useless I have read here already :-)

Congratz on the power up seems like that is the reason Steem is doing well today

Coincidence or not? I don't know.

That fountain hasn't been working for years, so I was told by my parents where I drank a coffee afterwards my visit to the town hall.

Adding up things while driving home later on, I just felt like buying some Steem when I got back.

Thats ALL the STEEM!!! :OD

All?
Damn, holy Moses, you bought the rest?

Damn right, I have it in my cellar! :OD

Ofcourse where else! Best place for some money-laundering, but most of all to keep a gigantic pile of HOT Steem cool.

It's so cool down there next to all the corpses Christmas decorations! :0)

Congratulations for powering up. I am also planning to reach to 20K steem power. The picture of fountain and the nature is really looking great. Nice photography. Followed you friend.

Thanks.
Wish you good luck with striving to reach that 20K. Even slowly but surely you'll get there too.

Thanks friend.

Wow!!! A true believer of steem. Congrats

Thanks, even if it should go lower, it's still a bargain.

The only way is UP if you ask me ...
