I joined Hive Learner’s Community in April 2022. Something that made me join the community was its featured post.

Three prompt questions a week has been a method of keeping the community alive and thrilling. With this idea there is always something to write about.

Kudos to everyone who put this much effort to keep the contest going without a pause.

Coming up with prompts continuously and keep a check on the posts is not an easy task. HL team has been doing everything diligently and efficiently.

It is one of the most supportive community for Newbies. I must admit that I owe the community for
My account status today.

I am feeling delighted to be a part of this community at the time when it is celebrating its first Anniversary.

I wish the HL community long and progressive life.

For the current HL contest I am going to present the top 5 of my posts that I created for participation in Hive Learner’s featured post.

For a person like me, who always sees flaws in her writing, it was a difficult task to choose top 5. Nevertheless, for celebrating the HL anniversary I have done so 😀

In no particular order, here come my top 5 publication

1

When the darkness resided in me

It is the story of the dark times I passed through. The post is not written in a story telling method but it is expressed philosophically.

In this post I explained about subtle form of rejection that comes from the ones whom we love the most and those who claim to (even do) love the most.

It tells about how the recurrent episodes of subtle rejection from our loved ones make us devoid of our self-worth.

It described how I gradually moved from fear of rejection to low self-esteem and finally to apathy. A stage where I was no longer able to appreciate any valuable thing in my life, even when I knew they existed.

At the end I have told the lesson that I learnt over the course of this journey. A lesson that helped me push my fear away. A lesson that made me appreciate the life again.

What’s the lesson? You will have to read the post

This post is dear to my heart because of this comment from a sweetheart 💖.

I wrote this post putting my heart out. I know many of us pass through similar kind of struggle. I wanted to make the reader know that there is always a way out if we desire to be out.

Education in the Era of Technology

In this post I have presented my views about how technological advancements have revolutionize the learning and teaching method.

The development of virtual learning material and easy access to millions of thousands of resources have made the knowledge spread like a fire in the forest.

Technology has saved our time in several ways.

Nevertheless, technology has brought its negative consequences too. They are also discussed in the post.

At the end I have concluded that traditional and technological methods should be combined moderately to get the best results.

The reason behind selecting this post as my top 5 is that: about 3 years ago I had written an article on the similar kind of prompt. When I went through that old article after writing this one, I feel delighted.

This one was much better than the previous one. Drastically improved. It gave me the sense of achievement. “My writing skills are honing 😄”

I want to understand the words of God

I opened up this post by describing my views about the mysteriousness of languages. I opine that it is one of the most mysterious creation of the universe.

I have put forward arguments about how translation of one language into another engulfs the real meaning of the words spoken.

Sometimes, the translation deprives the emotions held in the original language. At other times, the it fails to deliver the vastness of the words.

I have tried to explain my claims with examples. For further explanation read the post.

After putting the facts about translation issues of languages, I tried to explain why it is important to understand Arabic language in order to understand Qur’an (the Holy Book of Muslims)

My motivation behind this article was to make it clear that the translation is not the word of God and can never be able to present the wholeness of the speech in the Book.

A hero of the Nation

I love this post because it is about someone I love 🥰. Simple.

Actually, this post describes about a leader who has proven to be exemplary in all the senses.

We, Pakistanis, had only read or heard about the leaders who always stood firm in the time of challenges and hardships. The ones who never surrendered and compromised the integrity of their nation.

It happened for the first time in the history of Pakistan (after the founder of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah) that we witnessed such a leader with our own eyes.

He is none other than Imran Khan.

His whole life is an inspiration. He us a modal of perseverance. His consistency is laudable. His determination is unshakeable. His faith is unquestionable.

He needs not to speak for his good deeds. His deeds and character speak for themselves.

I pray to God for granting him long life and make him our Prime Minister again.

Puberty is a time for celebration but not Depression

Last but not the least, this post is about a social issue. A issue that exists in my society about the arrival of puberty.

Both the boys and the girls are not given information about the onset of puberty appropriately.

Because of misguidance or information being delivered in a horrible way, the teenagers have to go through a trauma during the early years of puberty.

The arrival of puberty that deserves to be welcomed delightfully turns out to be nightmare owing to the reason that parents do not play their role diligently.

I have shared my experience about what happened to me when I started menstruating. For details read the post

I am positive that I wouldn’t let my kids face what I have faced because of misguidance. Instead I will try to guide them properly.

So that’s the story of my top 5 in Hive Learners Community under #hl-exclusive tag.

If you made this far, I appreciate 🥰.
