When there is a lot going on, sometimes it is better not to act too hastily. Take a moment, take a breathe and observe the movements of the swirling world. For me, this means to pay attention to what I notice in the world and how I am reacting to it.

I allowed an expectation for a better future build in my mind and I see it currently shrinking with each passing day. I don't have any control over what those with the power do with it, but this was a long form content platform where quality was meant to increase and be rewarded. Instead, it is currently a comment box where powerful people laugh at their own jokes. Lol. Good one guys. Well done. Nice work.

I wrote a post the other day before this all started. Perhaps it is a little more relevant now.

Well, I will watch and wait and see where it all goes and keep doing what I do, posting and crossing my fingers that there is still a future here for my and your family to be a part of. I still feel that if those that can act quickly enough, the platform will not suffer too heavily and the community will bounce back stronger. Idealistic I know. Leave it too long though, and the wound will fester and unity may never arrive. Neither will the potential many see here.

This picture is of a cat in Amsterdam watching the world go by. It was taken on a Canon 40D. Amsterdam is a beautiful city and despite being robbed of a suitcase and having the next two weeks of our trip torn apart, I would go back again. Looking back at my images, I didn't do the city justice so would like another crack at it. Making mistakes is not a death sentence until it costs a life.
