RE: Finally back home from Amsterdam, new beginnings!
I think I understand how it must feel, @ballinconscious.
Last summer I was traveling to Tajikistan from Sweden via Russia. The Russian border police pulled me off my plane in Moscow and prevented me from traveling further to Tajikistan. My flight tickets were wasted and, on top of that, I had to buy another expensive ticket for the last available seat on a flight to my parents' place. A week later I bought a new (also not cheap) flight ticket to Tajikistan and tried again, this time succeeding.
So what I wanted to say is I feel your pain, brother, because I've been there myself. Soon enough this accident will be forgotten. New money will be earned, new gains will be made, and the unintended consequences of that seemingly horrible situation will prove to be priceless. There's a silver lining and a rainbow at the end of every storm!
Glad to have you back in the US and on Steem! :)
Awww man yeah, you do understand how I feel.
Must have cost a lot of money for those two flight. My cost of wasted money was about 1,000 USD.
Thanks for being empathetic and showing that there always the future to create more. I am in the process of opening my business to steemit and the blockchain; So your definitely right, more money will be made and new creations will happen. But the priceless expereinces are unique and will last forever.
Thanks, I am happy to be steeming again on steemit, steem on!
