RE: Today

in CCC4 days ago

I am happy to see you here. I still wait for summer, and if it's so cold I am not in the mood to plan a holiday. Are you? It's more like fall, and wind reminds me of trees dropping their leaves, carrying firewood, Sint Nicholaas and hot chocolate with marzipan. The only good things about those long winters but cocoa is getting rare not to mention the prices asked.
I remember how years ago people planned their summer vacation before the winter started. It was normal to do so one year in advance.

Thanks.. I got to this community through your posts. Then, I saw this contest. So, I decided to add in an entry..

Holiday plans? I guess those planned things happen when you had them in mind prior to the holiday. I don't see much of that with anyone except when they are travelling.

Times have changed.

This reminds me of a quote, "change is the only constant".

Thanks for the quote.. first time I hear about it. It's good to see you and I am happy I started with this community again. It's kind of interesting that the same people are still on Steemit. I hope that we can do the same as back then, without all the fuss.
A great evening!

First time? I was thinking that it is one of those quotes that has been shared way too many times.

I don't know all the details about starting this community. But, I think that you have enough reach on the platform to make this successful.

Nice evening!

I had never heard of the quote you mention, it is good to know it.

I have many years that I don't enjoy vacations either. Neither money nor time to go on vacation. @wakeupkitty and @ronnie10

It's the same here but they say just organising a trip is half of the fun. I remember a contest on Steemit where you could tell whom you would like to travel with and describe what you would do and where to go to. I organised that one, flight included LOL

I remember once you went on vacation with your children. You told many stories and anecdotes about the trip. You bought a car that later turned out not to be very good. Now I don't know if you still have it or if you changed it. I don't remember that?

@ wakeupkitty was saying the same thing about the quote..

Well, as long as you can find joy in what you are doing, it doesn't matter much whether it is a vacation or not. Does it?

A vacation wouldn't be bad, but I can't afford it right now. I'm fixing a lot of things in my place and I don't have money for anything else.
I would like to go to a place with lots of trees, rivers, hiking. Just in my thoughts.

A big part of happiness is working towards what you want.

Do you agree?

I think I understand what you are saying. It is very comforting that with the fruits of our labor we can buy the things we need. We can't get all of them, but we can supply many needs. Of course, that brings a lot of satisfaction.
