when I was a young teen, I shook the hand of a old farmer. I was struck by the man’s powerful dry leathery grip. I recall thinking to myself, this is like squeezing an old weathered brick.

now over the years, like many of you, I’ve endured the deluge of what felt like catastrophic FUD events, many 40+ % drawdowns on #Bitcoins price and several governmental attacks.

as the time has passed, I’ve become a rather calloused HODLer.

#Bitcoin ‘s highs still feel validating, but the unexpected lows have become far less painful & a time to further prove my conviction to my self.

as #Bitcoin finds its strength, I find myself thinking the same thing I was thinking at the lows… “maintain that powerful stony grip & stay focused”
