@rukeros takes a break | New beginnings

Blessed present, people. I liked that greeting, sounds good. Not gonna be a thing for me because I don't like robbing other people's originality, but it's a nice greeting if there was ever one.

It saddens me to say that @rukeros will be taking a break. @choli and I have different paths to follow in this moment of Life, though we love each other, we must see to our own process of finding out who we are and what we want. We still hang out but @choli will be off on a trip far away soon, and we will see how time fares on us.

Still, I have hope that we will reunite at some point, with our shit more together than before, and create things that feel better than before.

Today I wanted to share something different with you. Most of my life I'm just trying to survive. Whether building shelter, growing food, finding ways to move around with what cash is flowing through my hands at the moment. I've been obsessed with finding abundance through working alongside Nature, but it really is a slow process and all that can be done is to be patient.

But this time I built something just for the sake of it. To express my feelings in this moment and to do something that has no potential material reward in the future. Well maybe a little cause I'm posting on Hive , yet the work itself isn't meant to yield anything other than the freedom to create.

I begin by making a circle. I didn't know where I was going with this but I like circles so, why not start there? As a matter of fact, I won't be using any more squares on my posts for the images if I can help it. Not that I hate squares or anything but I feel that the internet has too many of them, and could do with other shapes.

The feeling that I wanted this to be a thing of power got into me. Not the power to control others, but inner power. The power to BE what you want to be, not what others would have you be. The power to stand your ground, even when the odds are against you. There were plenty of stones and they drove me closer to what I wanted to express.

It's funny writing this post now, because I've just suffered a second flooding this year. All I wanted to do was leave this place. Flooded, handicapped because I cut my hand and I still can't move my middle finger, on top of that with the emotions of a relationship break. I think a human can only take a certain amount of punishment before it collapses. I'm at my wits end, but somehow, I'm still here.

Finally I decided to give some skulls that were lying about a different purpose and put them at the center of this creation. After all, Death is one of the big powers that rule this world and it surrounds everything. In our culture, Death is treated like the big enemy, but I've known of cultures that celebrate it, as it is the parting of the Soul to a new reality. Personally, I don't know what to make of it, I just think that Life is not the ultimate goal and doesn't matter much if it's not high quality. When Life becomes miserable, I imagine Death is salvation.

I hope this circle will continue to evolve. Nature will do it's contributions for sure. Looking forward to revitalizing my blog and engaging more with the Hive community. After all, you've all helped me a great deal in coming this far into the journey so thanks for that.

Till next one 💪🔥
