Some funds for silver
Recently I've been publishing a lot of stuff I want to get rid of on a second hand market. I've already bought some stuff myself there which worked very smooth. Recently, someone ordered something for the first time and picked the shipping method over picking up, which is nice because instead of getting the money cash, some funds were added to my wallet as soon as the sale was finalized.
On top of that, I also reached a pay-out level from some online surveys I've been filling in for a few years now and these two amounts together were enough to buy myself a silver round. These are the fun moments when I can spend some money without feeling as if I really spent some money, maybe you know this feeling yourself?
Delegations
Where Dlease recently closed their services, the timing was very bad for me because I was almost ready to up my delegation to the 
Curation & delegation
In the past weeks, I've noticed I often get above 2 HP in curation which I never reached before so having a lease is really helpful and I regret not getting on that wagon sooner. Yesterday I pulled the trigger and decided to delegate the 1500 extra HP to the silver gold stackers community because even though I won't have something to share in the community as many days as some of the others, I think it's still great to contribute in this way to support the other members. The HP is well spent and whenever I have something to share, such as today, I get to enjoy the benefits myself as well.
The hunt for the next coin
I had so many coins in my favourites that it was hard to decide which one I'd buy. My main focus this time was buying one that spoke to me and wasn't coming with a huge premium. The shipping fees are very ok with this platform and there's a guarantee as well so I'm not afraid to buy one and risk being scammed because I will just return the item in that case and have my money back quite soon.
Equilibrium 1 oz silver round from 2018
This is the coin with the word I always seem to mess up when I pronounce it, lol. I can say it now as I practiced it since I opened it, yet I still had to look up the exact meaning. I remembered that it had something to do with balance but didn't know exactly what.
Whenever I need to know that type of info, I just go to my big old friend G and ask him. This is what I found on Numista:
Ancient Asian philosophers have always had a popular topic: Harmony. Yin-yang was the symbol that described its play. This Equilibrium coin refers to the essential necessity of balance and harmony between technology and nature, civilization and habitat, money and time, work and rest, artificial Intelligence and human intelligence, etc.
Here's the other side once more without the darker glow:
I normally don't have much trouble speaking about my favourite side, that's normally the side where I don't have to see the former Queen, but I have to say, in this case, I like both sides. It's cool to learn about its meaning too where all needs to be in balance and this is exactly why this coin spoke to me at this moment in my life while undergoing mayor life changes mentally as well as physically.

What's next?
I've seen some other cool ones that spoke to me which maybe I can buy rather sooner than later if I can sell some of my unneeded items.
Tomorrow it's flea market day so that means I will be checking what's for sale together with my daughter while of course hoping to find at least one coin that I wish to take home with me. Probably a circulated one I'd like to have as I have not seen any of these more valuable silver rounds that I'd dare to purchase there.
The flea markets are more about the fun to possibly spot something than actually thinking I take something home. But who knows, one day I may get lucky!
