Donation update and Transparency for Mom's kidney treatment and transplant (thanks to hive) by @seunruth

Hello, everyone! ! It's such a great opportunity to be part of a loving and supportive community like Hive. Last week, I was totally lost and hopeless 'cause everything became really tight as I couldn't figure out how to cover the weekly cost of mom's medical treatment after bringing her to Lagos for a better treatment. But thanks to the support and generosity of the Hive community, I now have renewed hope that my mom will soon be back on her feet!

Cultural Norms Are Fading Now by @tahastories1

Hello Folks, I am here again to greet you all with my words which are woven together in a string. I hope you will read my words today. Our today's topic is about cultural norms. I thought on this topic and considering many cultural norms, practices and traditions which are being followed in my country Pakistan. Then I was thinking that how these cultural practices are varying and being influenced and shaped by others narratives

¿Callar para conservar la paz? | Reflexión [Es-En] by @marybellrg

La prudencia de un hombre se conoce por su paciencia. The prudence of a man is known by his patience. (Salomón) Dicen que es de sabios hablar poco y de inteligentes, mantener la calma para pensar antes de responder. Quizás modificando un tanto, el dicho popular que reza así o algo parecido. Nada más cierto que eso

Troubleshooting by @minhajulmredol

Panicking for something valuable is normal but there should be a limit, right? We should be able to defend the incoming struggles and get past them. It's almost 4.00 AM, it's exam time. I don't know why, throughout the whole day I do nothing, and at night I feel like I have the whole world left to study and I can't sleep. So yesterday, exactly at the same time, I got a call and someone was crying on the other side

Mi Diario: 13 mayo 2024 // My Diary: May 13 2024 by @palomap3

Hola, querido hiver. Mi fin de semana empezó el jueves. En los últimos cuatro días se me juntaron varios encuentros de esos que llevas tiempo diciendo que tenemos que vernos y que por unos motivos u otros se retrasaban. Hay que ver cómo las casualidades, el destino o vaya usted a saber qué conspiran para que tu vida pase de ser rutinaria y hasta percibida como anodina, a no saber cómo encajar en ella lo que hasta entonces hacías todos los días. Podía haber postergado alguno de esos encuentros, total, ya puestas a demorar no pasaría nada por distribuirlos en dos semanas

My life...Your life and our life | Reflections in my intimate space (En –Es) by @mafalda2018

"The purpose of life is to live it, to savor the experience to the fullest, to arrive eagerly and fearlessly at a newer and richer experience". (Eleanor Roosevelt) In a couple's life it is necessary to have a space for activities that we enjoy, alone or with friends. And that help us to achieve emotional balance. Both men and women require moments with themselves, that does not mean that they do not love each other. However, this is healthy and helps to achieve well being and stability in life as a couple

ON FAITH AND FANATICISM by @nonsowrites

People illustrations by Storyset Imagine one cool evening while you are meditating, you hear a strange voice telling you to leave everything and everyone to embark on a journey to an unknown land. The voice promises that you would be wealthy beyond measure in this land. How would you respond to the demands of the voice? I would certainly check into the nearest psychiatric ward to get my head evaluated. People with schizophrenia hear voices and hallucinate, so that would be my first explanation for hearing voices

I'm Back! - Update, Birthday Madness and Other Niggly Bits by @hellsveiah

Hello and happy Monday! The following post will probably be filled with a fair amount of me being weird and awkward as hell, but then again, that's nothing too new. At least it's real. So, the past week or so has been... a lot

Enjoying the process by @nurseanne84

" Change tends to unsettle us. It often arrives uninvited disrupting the comfort of our routine. We find ourselves struggling, treading water as we brave liminality;betwixt and beyond the unknown". " What if you were to reframe the time spent in between? Instead of longing for stability of what's regular,embrace this journey as vital to your transformation, a call of the wild urging you to reflect, to pause and be present"

A Marvel that nearly made me crash my car... by @mondoshawan

There is more and more art on the walls of houses in a small town here in Brittany. Something that didn't really exist just a few years ago, was even "frowned upon". Today I was on my monthly shopping trip through this town and found a 'new' wall that almost made me drive my car into the gutter. So I stopped and took a photo of this marvel. At the same time, I decided to return here soon and document all these artworks for the many street art lovers around the world
