Omg people, it's been a while!

In all honesty, I was trying to see how long I could do without it, and I guess that's the sweet spot, 2 weeks.
The idea was to force myself, try to just stop even thinking about hive and work on my album, not even on the recording process, but just the writing. Song by song, it's going somewhere I guess.

I surely won't give myself any deadlines.

In the meantime, today I wanted to work on something different, and decided to record it, just to forget about the album for one day.

This song by Nina Simone, I posted it once in 2018, recording it at the parc in Joburg, but this version here is very different, I like playing the bass & the chords at the same time, also adding a few solo notes here and there. I actually sound good haha, me just saying it is a miracle, I am learning how to stop criticizing everything I do.

I was a little tense at first but then I chilled, and everything was fine, again I think it's because I didn't record with a purpose of showing it to anyone, and I think that's when it's better.

I was discussing with a friend on how difficult it is to change your mindset, of not thinking "Oh that would be perfect for a post" and instead, just trying to be in the moment, not thinking of the rewards, the outcome, and doing things because we genuinely want to do them and not because we excpect something in return.

It's actually great to just witness the moment, not taking any pictures, just enjoying things for what they are.

I kinda forgot how to take my mind off the rat race.
Am I coming back? Well I wasn't really gone, but for now I have to finish what I am doing, I realize that there is a limited amount of hours in each day, and I really have to make the best of it, all the spare time I can find is going to write, fix a chorus, a verse, and also some farming a bit...Ah and also taking care of a family.

So short answer, I'll be watching you :) (in a non creepy way)

Oh, also, I got dreadlocks now, not surprising when you know the man hahaha.

> My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Lana Turner's smile
Is somethin' he can't see
My baby don't care who knows
My baby just cares for me
Baby, my baby don't care for shows
And he don't even care for clothes
He cares for me
My baby don't care
For cars and races
Baby don't care for
He don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Liberace's smile
Is something he can't see
Is something he can't see
I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for me

The operators doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved in the same discord groups around @fyrstikken and friends. Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. Shes in some groups with seemingly detached characters that dont even acknowledge the others in the group, looking oddly staged. She starts projects and does nothing with it or the delegations after its used to sway people. Like @steempowertwins does<------fake along with her @teamgood <------fake. No substance in her comments and has a following that adores her for what? Life coach she is not nor is she insightful with any meaningful skills to follow. Ruler of pixie dust maybe? I would like for someone to show me but probably wont out fear maybe? @fyrstikken groups around him down voted me into censored and not viewable on my accounts as soon I told what they were doing. I cant prove @battleaxe is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing V2K because she cant and could care less. I guarantee she knows this is going around and still wont prove it because she cant. Many of us here can prove what they have been doing to survive the past 5 years. What does she live off of? It definitely isnt in public view here. I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have been trying to kill me using RNM with applied V2K mental games while revealing as many accessories to the crime as they can. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. Pretty serious accusations to just blow off and leave the crypto community hanging in fear of this danger. They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome. They should start by looking at the communications between the top witnesses of Hive and the connection to @fyrstikken groups. Google his fucking name and see where his other interests lie around at least once maybe? The connections between @fyrstikken groups and all the exchanges built for Hive? Bet that would reveal some crazy ball less nutty shit. Homeland security should start preparing for their own incarcerations seeing how sloppy this was done. Patriot act my ass. Think we are really fools? Bad position your not getting out of. Dont be last to blow the whistle. Who will protect you?People in and around @fyrstikkens groups are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 long torturing years and counting. That is a long time to wait for someone to die. What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and why nothing is being done. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control that have ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers prevented from telling the truth from being treated as criminals? Not to mention civilians we let our leaders treat the same way. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism-terrorism

Yeah. We are almost pedal to the metal starting in May. It's a bit much really. (Sorry, that's a major "humble brag" lol) but we don't want to go back home with my wife having vacation leftover and not being able to use it for anything worthwhile, so that's the way of it. We are changing it up and doing the Netherlands next this month for a few days - hoping to see the tulip fields.

Today we woke up to this though...

Snow! What the heck?

Hahaha the fact that you think like that, just show how much you think the world just revolve around you dear @katou.kanga hahaha but nope, ca fait depuis 3 ans que je les laisse pousser, et depuis l'année derniere en Juillet que chaque mois je me dis "pas assez long pour les dreads", donc non, une longue route capillaire.
Sachant que j'ai fait une pelade il y a quelques années et que j'étais completement chauve, donc pas mal du tout!

Bise à toi, en esperant que ton voisin sur le banc te fasse un peu de place la nuit!! Blague à part, j'espère que tu as trouvé un "chez-toi".

No the world certainly doesn't evolve around me. That's for sure😅 Actually, I was told today that I have to leave in a few days. So back in the street I go😥 Trying to find a place for my stuff.

I absolutely love this!! I have a particular fondness for singer/songwriters, particularly those on acoustic guitars- my brother is a talented "one man band". He used to be on here during the steemit days for a bit as @ed-the-songster ... something in the name Ed perhaps? :0).

I'm so glad you made yourself known to me, look forward to your album!

P.S. Love the dreads :)

the first thing that I saw was: dreadlocks... and I thought: did I miss something? then I arrive at the end of your post and no, I didnt miss anything :)

oh man! its good to stay away from HIVE from time to time. and so true, its so much better to go about hive not thinking of rewards at all. only with such mode, hive can be super fun. otherwise it starts to feel like a job. at least it does for me :)

wish you all the fun and success with creating your album!

@edprivat | April 4, 2022, 6 a.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Thanks mate, that's exactly it, I need to step away for a while, and do something else. The "job" part is ok if you the reward is consistent, unfortunately it's always a bit the lottery, and that's something that tends to put me off.

Thx for your lovely words!!

@edje | April 5, 2022, 4:55 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

I understand, but rewards are never consistent at HIVE, and should not be as well. Also, keep in mind you are getting great rewards, much better too many others. What should all those who get cents or a few dollars think? Leave HIVE? Then we end up with almost no users 😂 On the other hand, for many of your music posts, you do a LOT of work. My advice, go about HIVE spending less time in a post.
