A certain amount of capital was increased by this percentage a few hours ago and I was happy. Then the smile faded when I realised that the rise could have been greater if I had been able to control my emotions a little more. Waiting, like an iceberg, the one I am not.
A slight jump in time
But... what the hell, life is a roller coaster
And to make my point, the plan exists. The plan is fulfilled. But I am human and it hurts a little to see that my gains could have been greater. This should not hurt at all, I repeat, but it hurts. In short, the problem is this damn-blessed humanity.
Meanwhile, in a picturesque spot in Havana's geography, the herons are flying, bathing and splashing and there are other species swimming peacefully.
(I would like to know what this is but my lens could not get any closer).
I already said that we were moving forward in time, because at this stage of writing I was still at home.
...
That's what I was thinking about (about what?... huh yeah, life, trading, emotions) when it occurred to me to go for a bike ride. It's true that the weather is not suitable for cycling, but so what. Between the lucubrations about falling interest rates, the shocks in the cryptocurrency market, the peas that have been in the pot for more than an hour without softening and this feeling that I'm not getting there... but what is clear is that sometimes I feel a certain fascination for numbers. They speak to me.
Here I should take a look at 366, 666, 667?

OK, it all looks promising.
... now I'm going to take a shower so I can go out and cycle a bit. It's 17:03. And September 17.
After an hour of cold showering and grooming, I left the house, made sure everything was locked up, took my friend out and parked her while I closed the garden fence, opened the Strava App, put on some music and started pedalling.
I went to Vento Causeway and I was about to enter the coffee shop where I sometimes have chocolate ice cream when...
I saw it coming in the distance and took out my camera. The car, yeah.
OMG, 😮 this I didn't see coming.
The moment where he waves at me and gestures for me to take his picture, I missed that one. It all happened so fast... 🙄
I thought that life is indeed a roller coaster. I smiled and stayed there for a few seconds, stuck there like chewing gum, no longer sure what I was thinking. But... what a fool you are, girl, you can catch up with him, I said to myself. You're on a bike that runs faster than his.
I sped up, hit about 10 or 15 potholes, and then saw this landscape and the herons and what I showed you at the beginning. I stayed there for a while.
His name is Felix Guirola, I think it's him. I decided to stop running after the celebrity and stay quietly with the birds and the colours of the sky.
If you look at the first picture of the post (you can scroll up a bit) there is an iron bridge. I thought it would be a good place to go and take pictures early in the morning, considering that this place attracts a lot of birds. There are cows too. So I found out from people who live in the area how to get there. Sounds like an adventure.
I stopped at a few points along the Vento Causeway to photograph what I found interesting.
Along this road you can appreciate the records of the aqueduct system, a great engineering work of our country, designed by the Colonel of Engineers Francisco de Albear y Lara and executed under his command between 1861 and 1893.
That deserves a post. Let's leave it pending.
I decided to go back because it would soon get dark and I was really hungry.
While waiting at a traffic light, I took this photo and saw that I had some missed calls from my friend Li, as well as a message about the Lunar Eclipse. It said it could be seen from 20:39 hours.
Another slight jump in time:
at 21:21 I did not see the moon in the sky.
It was cloudy.
Luckily here I was already close to home. I don't like to be alone in the street at night, especially not on a bike.
Now after posting these photos, which I hope you liked, I will look out to see if by any chance the sky has cleared so that Chanel and I can see the eclipse.
😉
