Time Spent Well

HiveFest⁹ was when? Last week, right?
Who can tell me what happened?

Sometimes at some times I feel time is different. We all know that feeling, right? As Albert said;

“Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.”
— Albert Einstein

Time spent well. That's well said.

Well, in my case, I focus on my job. And because of that job, the reason of my perception of time might be the heavy metal I'm surrounded with. It makes me stu pet as duck. I started working straight after our trip from HiveFest. Guess what's my job this time.
I work hard all over Germany to ensure that you are supplied with electricity.

Do you know what's that? That's called Pure Wind Power. More or less “Green Energy”.

Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to talk about the exact details of my tasks at the Wind Power Energy.
Only as much that I hang around inside. Or to say I have an insider job. Climbing around and do what I have to do.

But I can tell you a few things like;
These towers are 160 m tall. The blades have a radius of 138 m. One tower, or rather its turbine produces around 5 megawatts in good wind conditions. They run from 3 to 23 m/s. The lower part is made of concrete, and the upper part is made of steel. Kind of half half. I work mostly inside the metal part.

What my favourite part of this job is, when I'm not inside, is being outside in middle green nature. I enjoy sunsets, moonrises, thunderstorms, warm and cold. I got even short visitors from the white a few times in the last couple of weeks. You get it, it's the whole nature thingy.

These sunsets are stunning.

They make me humble again. When I fly too high.

Same to moonrises.

One evening after work, I was sitting comfortably in my chair watching the sunset when I suddenly noticed the moon rising out of the corner of my eye. At that moment, I was totally the opposite of grounded. Do you know that feeling of unity? Yes, that was me. That was us. You felt me, and I felt you. Wonderful <3


The next force of nature are thunderstorms.

Of course, I don't have many photos of those. Do you think I'm crazy?!
Wind, that strong, you can't even open your car's door. Not to mention the towers' gate. Rain in combination with wind, so heavy and strong that even if your umbrella survives, you will get wet either way, because the rain comes from below.
I had a few close encounters with lightning strikes right next to me. It's an experience. As long as it remains an experience, it's amazing. At the same time, it is frightening. Imagine, you sit comfortable in your camper while waiting for whatever reason, or sleep. Out of nowhere, a bolt of lightning chose the tower next to you, strikes with its maximum strength, so close that the impact vibrates through your whole body. So loud. So powerful. Nature, I bow down before you.
That's the lesson for gratitude.


In times of good weather conditions, we have a wonderful view.

While claudy, I find still sun in nature.
I took this one especially for my lady llunasoulHive account@llunasoul.

That's the thickest slug I've ever seen in Germany.

Tzz... nature. _

If I would have recognised that game before?


Do you see if it's up or down?

When autumn strikes...

The fun part of getting stuck isn't far.

IMG_20241113_085005.jpg


Then the rough time begins. A time of white silence. The steel feels colder. The daylight is short.

Now it counts.

Time Spend Well.

Get cosy. Read. Meet your beloved ones. Play. Enjoy the silence. Travel.

Another thing beside life is
“Kendu Inu”. Remember? That's one thing I had my eyes on for a while now. I talked with a few of you about it. And maybe by now you might have read of it too. Looks promising. But what do I know. I don't know much about crypto, as I'm still a beginner. It will be my first cycle. The only thing I know is that Kendu has an amazing and hardworking community.

Now you know what has been keeping me busy. I might haven't replied, answering mentions or putting my part into commenting your well deserved posts. Nor put content from my side.
I've been a busy bee and expect well off in a sustainable range of jobs until the end of next year.

Love y'all. Peace out!
