Reflections ❤️ how is something so simple so beautiful?

One of the greatest gifts I had as a child is something I didn’t see or realise until later life. As a child I didn’t even know I was learning something and to me those are the best lessons. The ones you don’t see until you have reached a different perspective. As a kid I would sit on the bow of our boat as we cruised up and down the coast and I’d be mesmerised by the sea and waves. I could sit and stare at them all day long. And while doing this I would be so happy and content without a want or care in the world. Later on I came to understand that I was living fully within that present moment and that’s why I had no wants or desires. I was in the here and now. Those moments were like a flash of meditation a flash of being in the now. As I grew older those moments in time grew dim and were clouded over by wants and desires yet I always knew there was a place inside me that was content with just sitting on the bow of a boat and staring into the waves. I knew that I didn’t need anything to be happy as I’d experienced those moments of happiness and fulfilment and contentment as a kid, I knew they existed for free inside me. Later in life I was working hard earning big dollars yet there was a void and an emptiness inside me that felt strange and out of place. I was searching and looking for those old moments of peace and contentment yet I was looking for them in material things. I’ll just buy that home with the view, that flash car or that holiday and find that happiness again. For a few years I had to dig deep and to look inward at what I was chasing and why I was chasing it. Thankfully I knew it existed I just needed to find the courage to sell everything and to live the life I’d dreamt of as a kid free upon the sea. So that’s what I did. I sold it all the car the home and land and bought a small beat up old boat, which I then rebuilt and sailed halfway around the world. That decision and those experiences have lead us to today. To a place where we live simply so we have the time and space to see all the beauty that surrounds us. We’ve opted out of the system. We make our own power, our own water and maintain all the systems that are onboard. We use the wind to sail from place to place and the ocean as our road. We are as far away from the system we don’t align with as we possibly can be. We have no bank accounts, have never voted and never want to be a part of what enables so much pain around the world. Bitcoin is the part that has now really enabled us to disconnect. It’s enabled us to own our time and energy in a form that can’t be debased and that can’t be censored or corrupted and like living on a boat it’s bound by proof of work, out here nothing is for free! Stay humble, stack sats and create your world don’t wait for others to create it. Do it here and do it now and do it for yourself as NO one is coming to your rescue. The recipe for a good life doesn’t get any easier. Thank you Satoshi 🙏
