"ABANDONED HOPE" - Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest - theme "In the Woods"

in #busy7 years ago (edited)

I just found this really cool, new contest by @customnature. It's the Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest, also known as the ASWcontest!!!!
This week's theme is "In The Woods".


I have thousands of pictures of abandoned shit.
I love all the quirky things that appear in the deterioration process,
and how nature can reclaim that which man has made.

This boat was found in New England
sitting all by itself on a small hill, surrounded by the deeper forest of trees.
Obviously, by the placement of the flag,
the boat had been visited by someone in the not so distant past.


Though many things are abandoned,
I think it's wise never to give up on hope.


"ABANDONED HOPE!


There is a lot of really amazing things to appreciate in all stages of life and death.

I'll do some HOPING that you'll go visit @customenature
join in on the ASWContest,
and share some things of beauty with us.



HOPING for more from your Steem(it) experiences?
HOPING for greater connections and more powerful relationships with your fellow Steemians?
HOPING to make a difference in the economy and the way humans presently interact with life?
HOPING to get hugs in person? 

or how about HOPING to join in on a
- pitch party
- indoor skydiving
- automatic gun range
- exotic car driving
- botanical gardens
+ more!

YOUR TIME HAS COME...

awesome set of participation

Their are lessons to be learned from your choice of topic, "abandoned hope" . People give up on their hope so easily when it seems that it takes so much time to achieve, but that should not be the practice of a wise man/woman
.
Nice one dear, been a while, hope you are good?

I can see why people give up---so many people feel alone and once one is down, it can be hard to pull the self back up. That's why it's ideal we are all in it together! Glad to see you here @emmakkayluv.

Hmmm, that's a good point you just nailed there. I think the people we are surrounded with has a role to play as well in such an hopeless situation. Thank you for being such to me and many more people on steemit and in the garden.

Today is my birthday, I haven't make a post yet, I don't know where to start, their are so many things going on in my mind... Smile

Happy yesterday birthday @emmakkayluv!!!! HAPPY EVERYTHING!!!!!

I believe that building community is one of the most valuable things we can do to help humanity. We (at least in the Western World) have been raised to strive for the American Dream, owning everything ourselves, making all the money, running the household, procuring all the food, taking care of the children and having jobs at the same time. We are separated by walls and invisible borders that keep us barely even knowing our neighbors. We all believe we have to do it ourselves, and that it is indeed not only a better idea, but we are weak and incompetent if we don't do it well to everyone else's standards. No wonder people get overwhelmed and feel so alone. Helping each other, giving our best and our passion, is really the answer. Maybe you guys are better at that in Nigeria? We have to much to remember!!!!

Hmm, every countries of the earth have their strengths and weaknesses, yours has been pointed out. People only resolve to humanitarian services in this part of the world to cover for the weaknesses and failure of our governments and those in the position of authority. We have enough resources that can go round, but some people are just siting on it and this makes the masses to be living in abject poverty. We all have a role to play in ensuring things are in order.
Thank you for the wisdom and your wishes as well. Smile

Thank goodness you are playing your role and tuning into others who are playing theirs too. The more of us that step up in service, the more powerful our gifts become.

Blessings to you @emmakkayluv

Thank you, I'm glad to be a blessing. And thank you for always being a blessing to me too.

This picture says everything! Great shot with deep meaning.

I already suspect @kalemandra.Your conclusion is very true. Good luck always.

We're suspecting the same thing @anzirpasai!

A picture paints a thousand words...so they say! So glad to see you here @kalemandra.

I say a big Amen to the last prayer

May we never abandon hope!!!! Amen!!

Yes! My hope is alive. I hope for more on steem and greater connections here. My time has come. Yes!

That is GREAT to hear @oredebby. What a fabulous outlook. @quinneaker will be sharing his Steem Success Series in Vegas and eventually on-line. He is definitely someone to pay attention to---he has A LOT of answer for everything. He will for sure help up your Steemit game. I hope you get the chance to connect.

Wow thats so good to know. Definitely I will connect. Thanks so much. Yaaaayyy more inspiration to come.

More goodness rolling in all the time!

Hope is the reason to keep believing because when there's life there is hope for greater things.

As long as we take another breath!

HOPE: Hang On, Pain Ends.

This too shall pass!

Definitely, my friend.
