Before a secret is told, one can often feel the weight of it in the atmosphere. - Susan Griffin
Can you feel it, steemians? :-)
her invitation.It was Anja - @connecteconomy - (again) who inspired me to finally leverage the #funfacts tag. She published a list of funny facts about herself and at the same time encouraged us to publish ours. Now guess what: it took me incredible three months to finally follow
Good for you I'm not running a witness. With my reactivity I would supposedly miss all of the blocks - haha!
Here we go: 10 things you probably didn't know about me... until today!
)
@surfermarly doing what she loves most (which is actually no secret)
10 (fun)facts about @surfermarly
...which will be now stored in the blockchain forever and ever :-)
- Family: I've got two little brothers who're called Max & Moritz (like in Wilhelm Busch's famous Story of Seven Boyish Pranks).
- Music: I love dancing on the loud speakers in clubs (if the DJ plays my song).
- Awards: The only trophies I ever won in sports competitions are not from surfing: first (2010) and second (2011) in a golf tournament.
- Fashion: I'm a girl, yet unable to walk in high heels.
- Role model: The single most important man in my life is my dad.
- Romance: If you ever wanted to especially treat me (like winning my heart), then you'd take me on a trip to Norway where we'd be fishing at the fjord all day long...π
- Pets: At the age of 2 I suffered a trauma from a bad experience with a dog and was extremely afraid of dogs in general since then - until Tomy came into our lives a couple of years back. Thanks to my mom's Golden Retriever I rediscovered my love for these hairy friends.
- Drugs: A couple of years ago at a summer party with friends I came in contact with drugs for the first and last time. That night I came to know The lady from the mirror with whom I had a longer conversation. I told my friends that I had met the most amazing person ever in my life, that she was so eloquent and funny. It turned out to be my own mirror image with whom I had a chat in the bathroom π Other people told me that they were jealous, since they had taken drugs for years and never experienced something as cool as my story. So I thought I should leave it like that, since no experience with drugs would probably ever able to surpass this one, so I never touched it again.
- Love: I believe in love at first sight. Two of my longer relationships (6 and 2 years) started exactly like that: with a big flash π
- Sweets: If you were ever in conflict with me, you could fix it with a piece of apple pie (or a donut or a muffin) :-) Not only one day passes in my life without me committing one of these sins.
That was it... 10 facts about me you probably didn't know before :-)
Now I'd be curious to know yours. Use the tag #funfacts and let us know: which are your biggest sins, greatest experiences, best kept secrets?
The blockchain is yours :-)
Much love π
Marly -
EDIT / PS ref. point no. 8: Drugs are life-threatening. Even though my own one and only experience with drugs turned out to be a fun story to tell, the consequences of taking drugs may be irrevocable. Please don't ever do it, there are so many pleasures one can experience in life and that don't have any serious side effects on your health and life. Thank you!!! π
Thanks for your valuable time!

Welcome to the too-much-energy-blog!
PS: Friends share secrets, since it keeps us close.
Original content.
This is cool, thanks for sharing some #funfacts and secrets - I think I will do the same :)
Number 6, ha! I know a girl with a similar story of a talking to a lovely person, in a mirror - fun times!
You're more than welcome, and I'm looking forward to reading yours!!
Mirrors seem to be guarantors for nice and funky stories :-)
I'd better get to work then!
Yeah I think in the past (the distant past!) i've found mirrors interesting, but not so much these days really! :D
One donut a day, keep the doctor away!
Und wann du surf "fahrt" jeder Tag, brauchst du auch immer ein muffin dazu :-)
Schone Sonnige Tag!
Reminds me of...
Haha :-)
Surfin und Muffin passen einfach extrem gut zusammen..
Happy sunny weekend for you, too!
Wow, I did find out a lot of about I didn't know good idea actually @surfermarly ;-)
Hopefully weβll see much more people using the tag in the future - it helps this network to become more vivid and more social :-)
Have a nice weeekendHey @stwemitqa! Nice to see you here and Iβm happy you enjoyed the storytelling :-) It was actually not my own idea, but I loved playing it!!
WOW ! There was some pretty funny and interesting fact about you.
I really enjoyed reading your facts and the funny way you described about yourself. Thanks for sharing those amazing facts really enjoyed.
Thank you @pitter! Will you publish your own #funfacts, too? :-)
ok I will try for you.
This was a fun post! Thanks for sharing!
having your blogs in my feed always make for some nice reading most bring a smile to my face and others inspire me to think...
Learned a bit more again about @surfermarley thanks for sharing and opening yourself on the blockchain.
on another note and since you mentioned witnesses. Would you please consider voting for @swisswitness ? this is a project that @wolfje and myself have set up... we would be honoured by your vote if you have one left over... If not, that is fine as well, we will still like you anyway :-)
here is a pic of the apple rubarb crumble I made today... sending it over the net to Lanza...
Thanks for the nice compliment @felander!
And of course I instantly voted for your witness - not only because of the apple crumble :-D You guys rock!!!
thanks for your vote of confidence, you are amazing
I second what he said ... where's my crumble :-(
Well, let's see. The only facts (fun or otherwise) that we have in common are No. 4. and No. 10.
I can't walk in high heels, either. Thankfully, as a guy, I don't feel that much pressure to do so.
As for sweets no need for conflict. I believe they can be eaten any time. And, I wouldn't go as far as to call them sins. Yummy indiscretions? No. Just yummy. :)
Great overlap! It's a big advantage not needing to walk in heels, believe me :-))
Enjoy a nice - and hopefully yummy - Sunday @glenalbrethsen!
6!!! :-)
And I enjoyed 8 very much! That made me laugh so hard!! OMG!!! Hahahahaaa
Yeah, 6 :-)
8 is my alltime favorite story to tell at campfires - haha! Most of the people don't believe it really happened like that. But I swear I met "die Dame im Spiegel" :-D
I believe you! Yeah... βwhy keep on taking drugs after that? How much better can it get?β XD
That's exactly what I thought :-) I couldn't have any better reason to quit after the first try.
This tag must be trending in future here on steemit. People will love to share their secrets. Your secrets are no more any secrets they are now talk of the steemit town.
Well Iβd love to see more people using the tag! Itβll help this network to become even more social :-)
It was so nice to read these facts and get to know you better!
Now I'm tempted to share mine as well! :D
Oh I'm happy you felt inspired to post your own facts now :-)
Link them here if you want then I can read and upvote once they're published.
Happy weekend, @nikolina!
Here they are! I also enjoyed writing them. :D
I wish you a happy weekend too @surfermarly! <3
haha some really funny facts about you. Did not thought that you play Golf. I once fell down from a Speaker in a Club, thanks to alcohol it just hurt the next day! π
good that dogs have your trust again, amazing animals, I could not live without them.
Haha, I guess we've all had these type of 'party accidents' :-D Glad you just hat some bruises.
Enjoy your weekend @betterthanhome
oh yeah, luckily I learned from it. same to you. hope you get some good waves on your island ;)
what are these mirror drugs you took?
love the post and the honesty, you seem grounded!
grounded :-)Thank you @wheellife!! I'm happy you enjoyed the read. And yes, I think my life and I am what you call being
It was MDMA. Hopefully people won't believe drugs are a fun thing after reading my post - this was absolutely NOT my intention π³ Cause they're not.
i feel you, drugs are no jokes. i think the more traditional ceremonial drugs as part of a passage in life are dope, but those aren't the popular ones -.-
stay happy,
check out my WheelLife Wednesday vlogs!
Sometimes we are really quite even more than people know, I would'nt believe you even played golf at all not to talk of winning trophies, you're more than just the surfer Marley we know, it's really very astonishing fact, and well I'm still surprised, I'm glad I got to read. Hope you got control with the drug now
As I said I've never been in touch with drugs ever again.I'm glad you enjoyed the #funfacts @josediccus!
My only drug is the ocean :-)
and I meant I hope you never get over drug, because that's you we want to see every day out there in the water doing your thing
Dear @surfermarly i only know this amazing fact about you.
Haha, youβre too kind! I wish my moves were close to hers ;-)
Really begins a little tingling in the body before talking about the secrets, much more if they remain for eternity, until your grandchildren, great-grandchildren and everything else you want to know, then when I read you I think I felt a strange curiosity, go were funny secrets, you can tell that you have a lot of charisma and love in you....
This reflects a super simple person, a lover of nature and things that can be felt, quality time is the best romantic practice.
The bad.... just happened, ready, we forget the subject and focus on the fun... this challenge is great, I will try to join, thanks for cheering us up, happy day
Love at first sight I believe that too !!
This one , matched with me i also dance like crazy when dj play my favorite music in the club. thanks for sharing your 10 awesome facts about you.
God Bless You : )
But you rule on the ocean with surf board like Queen.
honestly i'm speechless .
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
All of your habits were awesome .
I also believe in first love.
Thanks for share your own featuers to us.
Also thanks for the post @surfermarly
Wait I will enjoy with you..πππ
Haha great facts i liked it bro β£
Been following you for a while now and it feels so nice to know more about your personality, in my own opinion, youβre not perfect but youβre good.
I hope you dance to my song someday, Iβm a singer and I love what I do. Greetings to your dad and brothers .
Wishing you well water girl
this is so great. you got the great point here
I like the #funfacts hashtag. Very happy you are friends with dogs again. We have had pets as long as I can remember. And today I have 2 cats. Cats are like dogs that are into meditation.
I'll give you some of my #funfacts before I write my post.
I was a Water Safety Survival Instructor in the US Marine Corps.
And, after I got out of the Marines, I moved to California so I could surf while I went to college. Was really into Body Boarding. And I could do El Rollos and inverted 360s. Later I got into longboards. But, my rocket ship mind machine will always be my body boards. Nothing like going upside-down in a tube.
Haven't been in good surf in ages. These days I live in Pensacola, FL. And I am really into kayaking cold water springs. I made this a few years ago at Wekiwa Springs & Wekiwa River near Orlando FL.
Those are some fun facts, glad to know that you aren't afraid of dogs anymore! For the most part they're so friendly and cuddly, but the ones that are mean are terribly scary.
That's a funny story about the drugs, that would be very hard to beat; but yeah, it's easy to get unlucky with drugs, too
Those are indeed some some very nice facts that you shared and It was nice to get to know you a little more :)
While among all the 10 facts liked the 4th & 8th ones ;)
I love the 8th one. Looks like deep down you are very happy with yourself. Congratulations to that:-)
These are cute and also inspiring. Thanks for sharing them!
Youβre such a cool person and weβre very alike! I wish we could live closer and be friends, lol. Or... you can come visit Florida!!! Have a Happy SundayβοΈππ
And can you give me some details about what that dance will look like ;)Hi @surfermarley Interesting facts, but there's one question which I have to ask you. What is "your song"?
Haha, sorry for my late reply! :-)
Maybe I'll be doing a dance video one day... how knows!!
Just mentioned you here btw: https://steemit.com/music/@surfermarly/this-ain-t-nothing-like-a-love-song-babyyy-get-your-dancing-shoes-ready-i-m-revealing-the-unreckoned-playlist-of-my-iphone
I have met a lot of people with that kind of trauma, but is not comun see a person that fix it by her own. Was so cool see your #funfacts edition, thanks for the good vibes that you share!
