We are Survivors!

Growing up isn't always easy now is it?
Guaranteed to be a challenging journey but also an amazingly exciting one.
I've been blessed to keep the good times close to my heart and toss those bad ones to the wind!

All of us here on Hive Silver Bloggers have faced many storms and this past year and a half have been very stormy indeed, thankfully...

There was No Covid Lockdown on Hive

Thankfully here on Hive we have not had any Lockdowns; in fact Hive gave us a gift at the beginning of last year when the hardfork took place, and our kitty doubled!
We could continue blogging and having fun while earning without our income drying up like it did in the real world for many; some now living in even more appalling conditions!

Hive - Business Opportunity without any startup cost?

The Hive blockchain platform offers amazing opportunities to start your own Crypto wallet for real without any startup costs; all you have to do is blog and interact with fellow Hiveans.

This is the perfect opportunity to earn, learn and make new connections by doing what we really enjoy and never had time for, and that's blogging!

Hove Silver Bloggers
Our Silver Bloggers Community is growing at a rapid pace with many seasoned bloggers joining who have much to offer our younger counterparts and each other by sharing what we have learned about life in general by blogging here in our #silverbloggers community.

Is your picture in here? If not and you fall within our age restriction of 40 to 100, then you are most welcome to come and join us!

I believe there are many valuable lessons to spring from our combined well of knowledge, and even the #silverblogger members can benefit from our shared pool of wisdom.

I'll list just a couple but you're of course welcome to write on any other subject of value to the community at large.
Suitable topics

• Forward Planning for the Big Day
• Suitable Projects and Hobbies that can be turned into a Micro-Business on Hive.
• Basic Understanding of Cryptocurrencies.
• Accommodation Options suited to your Twilight Years' Lifestyle.
• Pitfalls to avoid.
• Fun blogs about life before and after escaping from the Corporate Jungle.

Cross-Posting

Further, we welcome any cross-posting that our members have done if you believe the topic would be of interest to our Silver Bloggers.

Highlights from Members

I'd like to thank and highlight the following Silvers who have shared posts this past 9 days - you can still tip the ones that are older than 7 days, my apologies to those members:

• @fionasfavourites - Memories and Rambo Progress on a Meatfree Monday
  Fiona is one of our faithful members who regularly shares her food, purring cats and life from up high in the beautiful Cape mountains with us.

• @angiemitchell - I have always known that retirement was going to be good ......
  Shared a lovely blog of some of her travels and how she can now travel as and when she likes without having to fill in a leave form!

• @papilloncharity - Some Time Out!
  Our accomplished photographer and man of charity shared the importance of taking some time out for yourself

• @johannpiber - How about a Boat?
  Another fabulous photographer shared how his dream of traveling the world by boat has now turned to a campervan and possibly being able to retire earlier with the help of Hive; a very possible dream I would say!

• @artywink - We might be retired, but we ain't run out of steam yet
  Our arty friend shared an awesome blog of how she went from working as a bank clerk to giving art classes till Covid hit our shores, whereafter she joined Hive, and ended her post with showing how something old and discarded was turned into something beautiful.
  Take a peek at this new Hivean if you enjoy a good sense of humour.

• @fionasfavourites - Friday Files: Soup, Pickles and (cats in) Sunbeams
  Gorgeous Pickles, Pies and Purring cats; wish I could take a trip there just to get my hands on a jar or two of those pickles!

• @ericvancewalton - After The Euphoria Subsides - My Journey To (Semi) Retirement
  Our successful and very kind author who encourages so many Hiveans with his wisdom does so once again in this blog where he quotes something that Abe Lemons said that I'm sure all our retirees will agree with and that is "The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off.”
  Eric ends his blog off with his own piece of wisdom...

Retirement can be the beginning of the very best phase of your life...if you let it.

• @lenasveganliving - SPRING IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD 🌹🌞🌹
  Stunning photography of the gorgeous spring flowers in Canada.

• @fionasfavourites - Pickle and Brine
  Tantalizing us again with pickles and food!

• @fionasfavourites - Real Rambo Progress
  Fiona shares the progress of a very lucky adopted cat, aptly named Rambo.

• @joanstewart - Travel Diary 1978 - Part 1
  Joan shares an insightful look at how travel planning was done back in 1978; something many of us oldies can identify with; the younger ones could never imagine a journey without the help of online bookings, a navigator etc etc?
