It just does feel wrong at the moment.

And then it becomes like a waste of time, after yet another flushed draft.

The amount of votes dropped anyway.

Is it time for me to stop posting at the Steem blockchain for a while maybe? The post I wanted to do is basicly responding to some negativity that has been going around at Steem for a while recently. But while I am typing I feel a drain in my energy level. That usually is a sign for me that I am getting into something that is best for me to stay away from. There is still enough for me to do and it looks like with summer vacation closing in, it would be a good idea for me to really take a break. It could be interesting to see how Steem evolves. For me it is already tough to keep posting and keep up with all the other things going on at my home feed. Then all of a sudden over 940 Steem members to keep track of is a kind of tough. Well, I am sorry dear fellow Steem blogger in my home feed, I did lose track of it all a little while back.

It is nice to see a Nederish speaking community growing here at Steem. This is part of where the Steem communty will develope towards I think. More seperate communities coming, the first ones being based on language, then with even more sub-communities emerging from that. Stamp collectors from Nederland who only collect used ones that are misprents. Just to throw it up there. But also the united coffeebean farmers could have their own Steem community. They would have cut out the intermediate and are using their UniCoBe Steem Community Token {SCT} for trading. Making sure the value now directly goes to the producers of coffeebeans. This will be Steem evolving over time. For me it is hard to imagine that it can handle the member growth without communities. And it will be tough to handle demand for liquid Steem if there will be no Steem Community Tokens available to fix that. Also adding functionallity to the internal decentralized Steem market.

Yet, even while I type this in, I feel empty and I think it is really best for me to go do other things. Maybe one post in my native tongue and then call it weekend? Tomorrow I will be teaming up with a good friend of mine. Together we will go on tour with a BBQ-service. This time taking us to a village in the neighbouring province of Drenthe, in the north of Nederland. People don't have to bake themselves, it is an all-in service, but if they want to they can. There is even a trailer with cooled drinks, a coffee and tea bar plus they can tap their own beer. Always fun that one, who is the first to have a go? We will be going there in an old (1959) Volkswagon van, that already attracts a lot of attention. At arrival we set things up and let the party start. And to get into the BBQ mood already upfront I am having one myself tonight.

So, it might become a bit silent from my part of the world until I find some inspiration again to post. And it happened before that I thought I was done blogging for the time being that I got new inspiration shortly there after. But I'm okay with it. Just as it says: accept something you cannot change and you will feel better. Whish you a good weekend already up front.

Have a great one!


It's BBQ time!
