HiveDiscoMod Curation Compilation #146

In the restaurant of the main hotel in the town of Zaraza, the Hotel Unare, I was talking with my two friends Mary and Carmen while we waited to be served the Gypsy roll, a sweet specialty of the place and to which we had become addicted since we tried it for the first time. This dessert was prepared with a cake base that was rolled with a cream that was what made it special because it tasted like a combination of almonds and chocolate, very tasty. As we had not yet received a salary, it was a luxury that we could afford at least once a week, usually on Fridays when we returned home. The restaurant was large and lonely at eleven o'clock in the morning, except for the three of us eating our sweetmeat with a cup of coffee and two men in their forties, wearing hats "pelo e'guama", typical of the llanero dress, who were talking at another table ...

Uncle Christian, as we normally call him, is my father's brother. Whenever he traveled and returned, he always brought plenty of things for us, and he was kind and friendly whenever he visited. He wouldn't condone anyone scolding us and would always help us beg when we got in trouble with our mum. As the teenagers me and my siblings were back then, we figured if this man could spoil us silly almost all the time, imagine how we would enjoy ourselves if we went to his place ...

Photo by Joel Overbeck on Unsplash I always saw lack as an engine for envy. From a young age, we manifest our longings and absences, with things we don't possess. As a child, I was always someone with aspirations that were too high. I wished I had my own room; so spacious and beautiful, with shelves and closets full of electronics, shoes, books, records, and clothes ...

After more than 21 intense days of travel in which I walked and visited beautiful places as much as I could, the day of my return flight arrived. This was the second time I had volunteered, so I went to Ushuaia with a round trip ticket, since since the city is located on an island it is better to get the tickets in advance. What I definitely didn't count on was that a storm was going to ruin my plans and jeopardize my arrival date for the third volunteer assignment in which I had been hired. But luckily, everything worked out pretty well in the end 😅 ...

After the some of the family went to the Prayer Tower in Pittsburg, Texas. I really wanted to go when I heard there was stained glass. Look at this gorgeous glass! Here are a couple of pictures of the tower from the outside ...

After building the postbox, I got the next objective which was about delivering something to Distribution Center, West of Knot Capital City and on my way there, I found new threats and I fell in BT's trap as well but I could make it after all. Taking some rare metal for the delivery, I sorted out what more I should've been carrying and I started running towards the distribution center and suddenly I entered an area of foe's who are not BT's and my cargo has been pinged so I had to get to my destination as far as I could. These are the foes I was talking about. They're more like local thieves or something who were after my cargo as it's been pinged in their radar and they started moving towards me from different sides and I kept running fast so I don't need to fight them ...

With the crypto markets once again on the rise, and the market cap of Bitcoin being well above a trillion dollars, and the market cap of all crypto tokens being well above two trillion dollars I find myself pondering the age old question about "value" is. Moreover, I find myself posing the question of who determines what value actually is? What has value? It's not always an easy concept for people to grasp, but value is what we decide that it is ...

I'm really annoyed. I went and bought some padded envelopes last week, they arrived, and the stupid things were too small; way smaller than the size measurements said they'd be. They weren't too expensive, so getting a refund wasn't worth it, but I can't use them for what I intended. My intention with them was to start selling some of these games that I've collected over the last month or so ...
