RE: Entry for the Pay-it-Forward Curation Contest - Week 52

in #payitforward6 years ago

Oh, this is so so so kind of you to feature me again in a PIFC post! I feel a little bit ashamed that I haven't made a new post, but I am working on a special one while I am also trying to be on something like a little vacation :)

The first time we met over the Vacations and Your Mental Health was a very special time for me, too. I saw Steemit through a whole new perspective, felt at home somehow :)

I recently read an old comment of yours in which you tell me how you plan your road to recovery trip. And now, it is already over. Time flies so fast and yet so many things have happened in between. The road trip and the vacations are over. Now we both try to figure out what is coming next :)
To tell you a secret now :) Every time I read a post of yours, I try to "steal" some of your precision and thoughtfulness :D

I am very happy that I met you, my dear friend! <3

My great pleasure @insight-out, to draw attention to your efforts again. You are very deserving of it! Many times I wish I had the ability to do more "in here." But … I have to settle with simply doing all I can …

"... but I am working on a special one while I am also trying to be on something like a little vacation :)"

A ”special” one! That sounds intriguing. It does draw my attention to one shortcoming of my post, once I realized you had no posts inside the payout deadline. Which was to provide a link to a comment or something, where my readers could still show their support, as seemed best to them.

As you can see @pifc / @thedarkhorse already worked through this on his own. I'll put an edit to my post at the bottom, so they can simply upvote your comment here, if they wish.

If you happen to finish your post, before this week is out, then please update me here. And I will then update my edit ... Entirely up to you, since I would never tell you to interrupt your vacation ... 😉

”To tell you a secret now :) Every time I read a post of yours, I try to "steal" some of your precision and thoughtfulness :D”

You are very kind. The older I get, the more I am impressed by the old sayings with which I grew up. Specifically, how concisely they express little “gems of wisdom.” Here’s one example: 😊

Thank you for the use of the word “precision.” Given your training and background, I would imagine it would not surprise you that I have, at times, been accused of being a perfectionist. My typical reply is, “Well, maybe, but I prefer the word ‘precision’ over ‘perfection’!” 😉

Hoping you are having a great day “over there” and enjoying your vacation with your family!
