I was always wondering if i can reach 100years old before I die.😅
But thinking yes, I live but with the fragile health and body? Kinda hard!
You got an interesting topics for today sir, well as always.
Count me in for this week!
I can't afford to live until I'm 100, to be honest. I'm also not sure I'd want to, I don't thing the world will be a nice place in another 48 years from now.
😬, that's one of the reason too. The world is getting chaos, humanity was lost , inflation? Ahhh, everyday is a struggle!
Well aside from the hardship having an old body!
Nae, maybe I am okay at 60...
The world is upside down and I don't have a lot of hope that the future will get better. Anyway, life ends when it ends I guess, I'll just keep living until I don't anymore.
Have a good weekend.
My grandma lived 120, grandpa a hundred and thirty-six my dad is currently eighty-one. At hundred they were so smart, communicated properly so to live a 100+ is same as to be 10+. You still look good but when you don't have your age grade around, it becomes tiring I learned from them while they still lived.
Your grandpa loved to 136? Amazing.
Yes he did.
The pretty but dumb... There is a saying, "what's the use of your beauty if your brain is empty" 😂..
To live in this generation, beauty isn't what matters, but a witty mind.
Indeed, that's true for sure. Let's see if anyone chooses the dumb option.
I think they are all great themes. I don’t even know which to choose from😂
I like to keep it interesting so your feedback is good, it tells me I hit the mark.
You smashed the mark. Expect my entry soon
Wow another weekend is here with interesting topics, let's write.
Happy weekend.
Thank you
They're all interesting topics to write about. Hmmm, let's see which one! 📝🤔
Let's see indeed. I'll be patient and see it when I see it.
Happy weekend.
Happy weekend, too! 😁
All of this weekend topics is interesting, let's do it friends
✅
Very interesting topics to write on. I will try my best this time
No worries.
My Aunt turned the speedometer over, also said that the next 1 would not happen, it didn't. Sound mind pretty mobile too, she had had enough at the 100, wondering what she was still doing here...
Yay for Margaret, triple figures! I bet she saw some things in her life huh?
Being single, war room office worker, travelled all over after the war, plenty of stories very few repeated outside of family circle. She loved life, outgoing, friendly and kind, although extremely set in mindset most people were good for nothing...., left her will to the SPCA after giving us, her nieces and nephews what she felt we would treasure.
When TV presenters approached for interviews she sent them packing on their way, for some reason would never speak to outsiders.
Seems like she was a character indeed.
She held her own, after being diddled in long engagement lost 'dual savings', we fully understood where her ideas originated.
Wow. Our contest is around.
Indeed it is.
Oho, interesting! These concepts are very well creative and I know there are a lot of good blogs you'll read this weekend. Happy Friday, sir Galen.
Hey mate, happy Friday and I hope you have an awesome weekend ahead!
yep, a lot of rest for this weekend. lol. the rest that I don't have for the past week days.
It's a hard decision at 100 it hurts even the whites of your eyes, 🤭🤭 if I were 30 it would be great who cares about your mind at that age what matters is not having ailments.
Please @galenkp, i want to understand something in this contest, can one write on 2 or more topics in this weekend Challenge or just one post? Waiting for your reply
One post and one topic is sufficient. Trying to write about too many topics might compromise the quality on your post by splitting your focus, don't you think?
Thank you, trying to understand it better. I think i think 1 topic per post makes more sense 👍
These are interesting topics I must say. Am sure going for the risk and reward. Happy New month @galenkp and friends.
Happy weekend.
Wow good topics, diversity to choose from, thinking about which one to decide. Thank you very much @galenkp happy weekend to you. Happy weekend to all.
Happy weekend to you too.
Highly intelligent people will know that attractive people are mostly used for their appearance. If you're both, you're intelligent enough to utilize the way how you look. But everything decays over time, including your brain. Being smart enough to witness the world as how it is, can be quite a torture while being dumb and beautiful is a blessing in disguise -as you're too dumb to complain and ask the right questions-.
I honestly don't care. Being hot is subjective, being smart is subjective, being intelligent is subjective. It's the arrogance that makes us think we have to choose, while the choice has already been made deep in our minds. Ego prevents us from stepping away from such nonsense. The duality of -everything-, whereas triangular choices are highly interesting. On/Off, this/that, right/wrong, light/dark, in/out, etc. Once you figure that out, it doesn't really matter if you're Ugly/Beautiful or Smart/Dumb, right?
Thanks for the opportunity to share some thoughts!
Thanks for your thoughts.
I can see a lot of topics to write on.. and we are just to choose one topic to write on right?
Anyway I have seen two captivating topics that attracted my attention. And I will like to write on one of them. I hope to do my best in this. Thank you for organizing such contest.
One topic only, yes.
Alright
A great selection this weekend 🙌 Here's my submission :) ...

This post has been manually curated by the VYB curation project
Thanks mate.
But this is a wonderful initiative... I've already chosen what to write or rather who to write to. Unfortunately, as a good cook, I work weekends... I'll find the time to see 😉
You need to prioritise what's most important and if you have some time get a post done. I'll look out for it. This will be your first time, so please just follow the guidelines as set out in this post.
I will be able to publish you will see.
I summarize the guidelines so you tell me if everything is right.
All right?
Brava!
Bravo?
I always get confused.
Bravo 😉
Lol, I knew I'd get it wrong. Oh well, you knew what I meant, and I was 50% right. 😊
Eh eh but don't worry, don't worry. Then each of us has a masculine and a feminine part they say, so if we put it like this you're not completely wrong eh eh!
I love the concept of the weeek yiee the eulogy is the one that I am interested on hahaha, well I am absent last week but this weekend surely I will make some. Yieee
Hey mate, I hope you've been well. Have a great weekend huh?
These topics are so hot they burn! Really good selection of ideas for posts.
Thanks mate, I was hoping people would like them. Have a great weekend.
A great weekend for you as well. The topics are just too damn good!
😁
Not being able to relate to some of the writing suggestion is the reason why I just stay on a low key hehe.
This week's topics are interesting and I have responded to one of the suggestions under the writing weekend.
Hey there, have a great weekend huh?
Yeah, and you too🙂
Great choice of topics as always! Gonna be fun reading this weekend.
I hope you find some good ones to read.
I love these proposals, all are tailored to create and move the energy in each of the scenarios you propose... thank you. Galen
You're welcome, and I hope you have a good weekend.
Thank you, Galen
As always great topics, I loved writing about
https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@lobaobh/thank-you-for-my-life-week-130-weekend-engagement-concept
Thanks mate, I enjoyed your entry.
What a wide variety of topics this week, there is a lot to choose from, however I am going for love, here is my proposal for the weekend:
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@nbarrios67/week-130-weekend-engagement-concept
A happy and productive weekend to all of you.
Thanks mate, happy weekend.
I join the comments. Great ingenuity in the proposals, it is time to think, reflect and discern where the trend is taking me. Thanks @galenkp for generating these opportunities. Happy weekend.
You're welcome, I hope you have a good weekend.
Intelligence or looks.. hmm
I'd say, a nice balance of both would be good, but that's not what the question asks. Happy weekend.
Oh how difficult, to choose any of the many good options, all the questions are excellent.
Lol.
Greetings @galenkp here is my participation link 👇
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@chichieze/week-130-weekend-engagement-concept
Thanks.
Another weekend of exciting topics. The three topics are super plus engaging. My entry coming soon.
Happy weekend.
No worries, happy weekend.
Wow all this topics are really interesting and I don't even know which one to pick.
Have a nice weekend.
All these topics are very interesting. I’m guessing everyone when playing a “would you rather” game will very much say they prefer to be intelligent but unattractive.😂
Can’t wait to read the entries. 🤞
Let's see what they say huh?
Yeah. Pretty sure there’ll be a lot of interesting articles to read. Can’t wait.😋
Aaaahh!!! 😄 I don't know which one to choose 😄 They are all very good! Thanks for the choices 🌺
You're welcome, have a nice weekend.

Excellent alternatives to meditate and take advantage of the weekend doing activities that nourish us as people.
I hope to be able to participate
Greetings 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
All the best to you for a good weekend.
There were many topics to choose from this weekend and this is what I chose to answer.
https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@xanreo/weekend-engagement-130-choosing-between-these-two
I'm shy to answer this but I hope you like my answer. Thanks!
Hello!
Thank you for providing us with ideas to choose from and below is my engagement post.
Happy weekend all!
https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@maquemali/a-loveletter-to-boknoy
I like the topics very interesting but I'm afraid maybe I may be wrong again 😌 But perhaps I will try again. Thank you so much. God bless.
Hi.. never be afraid to try new things and dont give up till you get it right. We are all here learning and discovering new things.
All the best!
Indeed, I agree with you.. God bless.
Awesome topics as usual, here is my submission for this weekend's engagement https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@george-dee/dear-omma
Yeah I saw it. The problem is that the question asked you to write your own eulogy, that means you write one about yourself, to be read at your own funeral. You need to read the guidelines and topics clearly, I always make myself available if people need clarification. I'll throw it a very small vote, but I ask that you read and understand the topics.
It's a real pity because you write well.
Amazing selection this weekend. Thank you so much @galenkp

Happy weekend.
Hola a todos.
Aquí les presento mi participación para este fin de semana:

Sorry, I don't speak or read Spanish.
Sorry @galenkp, I apologize for my mistake
Hello everyone.
Here is my participation for this weekend:
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@germanandradeg/weekend-at-100-years-old
Is there any discod group for this community? How can I be a member of this community? I'm definitely going to take part in the contest 😀😀
No discord.
To become a member you need to post consistently with quality, weekend-related content. You can subscribe as you like by hitting the subscription button.
Thank you for the lovely comment... Is it okay to make use of free source images from pixabay?
Can I write on the being Intelligent or beauty topic?
Thanks for your lovely comment once again buddy and i hope you have a great day ahead
I prefer people use their own pictures when writing about their weekend experiences - If you've experienced it, you're likely to have a picture of it.
Pixabay images are ok if there is a link to the original included.
You can post about one of the topics in this post if you like, it is the only time non-weekend focused content is permitted in the community and the guidelines have to be followed.
Yeah that true, it actually makes the post or content more genuine since you are writing from personal experience.
But I was actually referring to the weekend engagement contest topics you suggested if it's okay to make use of free image sources from pixabay and referencing them.
Great!!
Wow!! Great!! Let me get my writing tools ready then 😂😂
Thanks for your lovely reply buddy and I hope you have a great day ahead ❤️💕❤️💕
OK, sorry I thout you meant generally. for the #weekend-engagement it's ok to use a stock image if you have to. One is sufficient.
