Seems he is wearing his hoody and hat less. Summer heat is real!

Orzo is so damn good. I've stopped buying it and pasta because a brother has to loose weight and I can't control myself!

I've witnessed a ton of good conversations and felt comfortable enough to add my opinion.

I've only just joined but, I have seen some videos on youtube and I can tell there has been a lot of features that have only made it better in only a years time. I can only imagine what it will be like in another year.

There's this optical illusion that happens when you own bitcoin and understand the implications of owning it. As understanding grows you start to notice that its not bitcoin that is appreciating, rather fiat.

NVM just checked out your website. Looks good!

Every Sunday, my brother, Alex, and I would catch the scent of pie that crept from the oven as we chased Ronnie and Ellis around my grandma’s house.

We were good at keeping our traditions and though we would grow out of the stampeding about grandma’s house phase, that precious old lady’s house was where Alex, Ronnie, Ellis, and I would sit in the back porch; still the scent of pie strong steaming out the house; we’d share stories about our first crush, our first kiss, our ambitions.

Alex was the first to leave for college. He never came back home. Four years of college then a big time job across the country.

Ronnie and Ellis were twins, they left simultaneously a few short years after Alex. They never came back home. Not the same, at least.

Turns out there was a nasty gene deep in Ronnie and Ellis waiting to reveal itself. Both twins suffered from mental breakdowns in college. Ronnie developed a nasty schizophrenia, Ellis fought depression for several years. They were home but who I’d grown up with wasn’t.

The year of my graduation the scent of pie vanished forever. My grandmother’s grave was my last stop in my home town before I too would leave.

I’ve never returned.

People come and go. Some leave for a different country or leave to a different state. Some loose the state of their minds. Some are in their final resting place.

All are dearly departed.

What makes their departure so bittersweet is the time you shared with them and the memories you carry of them. That’s life. That’s what makes it worth it.

The ink dilated from the quill in its frenzied dance across the parchment as Thomas Jefferson wrote the words that would echo around the world for the next 247 years ,"...that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

He must have been in a complete state of flow as the words expressed themselves on the page. The words originated from a desire to create a prosperous and happy nation.

According to the World Happiness Report, which began publishing in April of 2012, there are six factors that define happiness: Income, health, having someone to count on, having a sense of freedom to make key life decisions, generosity, and the absence of corruption.

In other words a persons access to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness".

When I was younger I had this idea called the unicorn theory.

Its core tenant was that when we fall in love with our significant other, we actually fall in love with a unicorn. We fall in love with the instance of a being we could not fathom living our lives without. But that being is as much an imaginary creature as a unicorn because people change. People learn and discover new things that alters the way they interact with the world.

The unicorn theory is the reason so many people divorce or fall out of love. Its the reason why people fight in a relationship. The words, "since when did you..." fill in the blank is when love begins to deteriorate.

The excerpt you posted depicts true love. True love is that willful sacrifice an individual makes to go on that journey of change with someone else.

This article succinctly describes how content creators are feeling. It's how nostr can gain more adoption in my opinion.

Yea, you also close the door to a new relationship when you quite literally shut peiple out for what they believe. People are comolex beings with very complex views of the world. Its worth exploring that.
