RE: 🗨️ NO Structure, NO Sense, NO Rambling, NO Silence, NO Thinking, NO
I like reading whatever you post, even your GIFs have sometimes more character than some 300-word posts. 🙂
I think I can relate to your words. A lot is going on in life that I also don't find time to reflect on. In my case, sometimes I think about writing something then I think it's not good enough. I start writing a comment and then something comes up which makes me leave midway. Later, I forget about it and move on to new content, and the cycle continues.
My boys are almost the age of your boys — 8 and soon-to-be 5. They do grow up fast. Like you, I couldn't wait for them to be independent and now when I hold my little one, I see how fast he has outgrown my lap. When I joined steem, my elder one was only 1-yo and now he's almost reaching my shoulders. Where did all the time go?
I can't say there's no content because honestly, I haven't tried reading anything beyond my feed lately, and thanks to your Hide Resteems feature, there are fewer posts than ever that I get to read. (I don't like unchecking that box😅) However, I can imagine how frustrating curation can be these days. Most have lost interest or I think there's so much inflation now that people simply don't have enough time to put effort into something that can't pay their bills.
I'm so sorry about your cousin. I don't know what to say, I also have a relative who was diagnosed with this vicious disease last year. I can't imagine anything happening to her.
Well thank you. Sometimes, a GIF can say 1,000 words.
I can absolutely, 100% guarantee, that it's good enough. We've reached the point where a post about potatoes would be seriously considered for a vote.
Almost the identical age gap to us. When they were teeny weeny, I knew that I'd miss them lying on my chest, sleeping. Where I could sit and watch the Grand Prix or football (although there were tears when I cheered a goal!) with the little one cupped up in one hand. They're still small enough to wrap them up to watch a movie though... or lie down and have a snuggle with the little one. It's the little things that we cherish. Although today has been a bad day with them!
I didn't really either - I would occasionally notice somebody new popping up in comments that I'd be interested in - I've said so many times that "ignorance is bliss".
And the idea of writing for pleasure or as a release has always been a rarity.
It's that last sentence that really resonates. Even when he got his diagnosis and "expected timeline", there was always the belief that "he'll be fine". It would have been nice to be right this time!

Sshh... Don't say that out loud. We'll have another round of how-to-grow-potatoes.
Yeah same but I have a feeling that won't last long. Mine is already always more interested in what his big brother is up to. But can you imagine they are already fighting over Ronaldo and Messi.
Do they fight? Don't tell me otherwise. I won't believe.
It will always be a rarity for the same reasons. People simply don't have enough time to do things for pleasure like in the past. It's not just writing on Steemit. It goes for other hobbies too.

I shit you not... I'd vote it.
Ha ha! Ours is the same. He bypassed all of the baby toys and went straight in with the Lego and Hot Wheels.
I'm jealous. All I get when the football is on is "Daddy, stop watching BORING football". Sometimes, I wonder if they're mine.
You wouldn't believe the toys we have at home. Kindergartens have less. But they only ever want to play with 1 toy. Which is the toy that the other one is already playing with!

and silly me planted tomatoes. I should have known better. No votes for me?!🥲It doesn't have to be a toy always. They would fight over a broken lid only because one of them finds it interesting for some reason.
