Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Today is the first Monday of the second half of the calendar year and...well, it's just another Monday really...I'll get excited when it's Friday and the weekend looms large. Having said that, Monday is #weekend-engagement highlight post day and that's a little bit exciting right?

The writing concept is featured in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community and topics are released each Friday so content creators have all weekend to post in response to the topics I set.

The #weekend-engagement concept is to help users with writing topics to challenge their thinking and creativity and to promote great quality posting over the weekend. I also urge participants to engage with others as it's a great way to build relationships which is important to ongoing success and enjoyment on the blockchain...and it's more fun too.

This week I'm transferring Ecency points - well done to those people as below - a great effort by you, and by everyone who chose to enter and follow the concept guidelines.

You can post in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community any day of the week but ensure your content is strongly weekend-related. This means your content should be about Saturday and Sunday and be experience-focused using photographs you took yourself.

Oh man! The one time i find time to enter, I just missed the deadline.

I'm also not a fan of mint aero ..... I'm judging you!

Sorry, I generally do the wrap up very soon after the 5pm (my time) deadline. I'll go look at it if course.

I'm diabetic so don't eat chocolate, I bought this for the photo, along with many other chocolate bars. Having said that, I don't mind the mint Aero Bar. Any chocolate is a treat.

no need to apologise, im the one that's late! You just doing your thing!

My deepest condolences dude! I really love chocolate! So much, if you cut me, i would probably bleed chocolate! But i guess you probably so used to it now right? We make the best decisions for us. My chocolate habit is not the best decision for me, but it also won't kill me. So we persist! Can I ask why are you taking pictures of chocolate bars? Sounds like a story I wanna know. Or do I?

Yeah, it's not the best thing, I struggle though it, but am a very disciplined man so do it well. My life depends on it.

I did those chocolate images for this post below, just for fun.

That's a lot of chocolate right there! Can you say sugar high! Probably had to run 100 miles to counter that sugar spike!

Insulin takes care of it now...but nope, ate none. (I'm disciplined)

Well done! I wish I was. I'd be a skinny bitch then!

Thanks! It's nice to be back posting on weekend experience after skipping for a few weeks.

You're welcome, it's good to have you back.

Thanks! will try to be more active from now on.

😎

Thank you for choosing my post . I got the reward .. See you in the next WE...☺️

No worries, thanks for being involved.

Congratulations to all those who with effort, perseverance, and dedication continue to honor our content creation in the weekend engagement.

Galen, a thousand thanks to you for this space, there was a very good reading. Waiting for Friday for the Week:161

Week 161...I just wrote the topics...I think they're passable, but it's the rest of you folks who determine whether they're engaging enough to write about. Let's see how it goes over the weekend. Have a good week ahead.

I'm sure they will be themes of the meaning of life, Galen, as always! Good writing topics.

Have the best week possible, my sincere appreciation to you.🤗

Another Monday for sure. Time to brew the coffee and check out wha's been posted and support some posts. Have a good one my friend.

It's been a good Monday but is winding down...Chow time is done and I'll be hitting the couch to watch some movies. Hacksaw Ridge tonight.

I hope you have a good one.

Oh, Hacksaw Ridge is a great story. One hell of a brave dude. Had true courage. The courage to stick to his beliefs and the courage to risk his life for others. Stamina and fortitude that just amazed.

More rain today. Just plan to hang out, watch some boob tube, plan for when the rain stops, and curate all day, maybe work on a post.

Yes, I've only seen it 300 times already so one more won't hurt. He was a very brave and special man...courageous doesn't quite cover it. I might sneak Dunkirk into the line up tonight also.

Have a good time boobtubing.

I read some great entries this weekend. It is always nice to see how different the views are around the world on topics like this. Hope you had a good weekend G-dog

I know right? I was surprised to see some of the perspectives, not in a bad way, just surprised to see how people from different cultures think. Thankfully I'm Australian.

The weekend was ok, nothing too exciting happened. Monday also, nothing interesting to report except...Grilled chicken breast marinated in Nando's peri peri sauce with steamed broccoli, carrots and green beans on the side. I was the maker and the eater...and the liker.

I hope you have a good Monday.

Perspective sharing is never a bad thing, I think everyone in Weekend Experiences would agree. Maybe they also learned something new along the way.

The chicken sounds tasty - don't think anyone had to taste test it for you seeing as you made it yourself 🤣 Nothing interesting to report is still a positive. At least it wasn't a Blue Monday.

don't think anyone had to taste test it for you seeing as you made it yourself

On occasions, one needs to be one's own taste tester.

Thank you for selecting my appreciated content @galenkp I am truly grateful to start the week on the right foot, my content being one of your favorites, see you next weekend 🙏 and thanks for the recommendations, I will keep them in mind

No worries mate, it was a nice post to read and well worthy of being in this highlights post.

Thank you very much, I hope to continue sharing highlights with each weekend and whenever the weekend commitment allows it ☺️

Thank you very kindly! You certainly prompted some fine writing this weekend.

The thanks goes to you and everyone else who took part, I appreciate people taking the time. Thank you and all the best for a great week ahead. Or a good one. Or even just ok...anything but bad I guess. 😜

Great quote!

Right? I knew you'd like it so I used it especially for you, hoppy.

I hope your ankle is getting better.

You're such a considerate guy😎 I always wanted my very own nickname. Didn't think I'd have to put myself on crutches to achieve that. I would probably feel better if I could gobble up that aero but I'll settle for just being happy - um - hoppy

Lol, a happy Hoppy makes me happy. Aero bars do too. 😊

Thanks @galenkp for the contest and the support for creative ideas you provide weekly!

You're welcome, it's my pleasure.

How are you my friend? How is your health?

Oh, to see me here is so exciting! Thank you so much 🤗 It was a weekend with some romantic touches 🙈 😄 And that was great.

I too will be very happy when Friday comes around again 😁

All good in this part of the world, cold...but that's to be expected in winter. 😉

Thanks for supporting the #weekend-engagement concept once again, I appreciate it.

I hope you're well, and you have a good week.

Excellent posts, I really liked 1, 2, 4 and 6.

4 is the one that impacted me the most because of the story, strong story. And the two drawings are great.

Thanks Galen for always bringing such fabulous topics... Friday is not so far away!

Have a great week and best of luck on Wednesday!

Note: I'm sure you already have the next Friday's themes ....

There were some nice posts this week, your own included.

Yes, I've written the topics and the post is ready to publish. I am a very organised and disciplined man. 😊

Thank you very much!

Yes, I know, super organised. That's very good... too bad I have to wait to know the themes.😀

Thank you very much @galenkp . I am happy to be in this selection. I had a lot of fun doing the drawing, since I like to draw but I don't do it often. Congratulations to all the others selected. Regards 👋

I'm glad you had fun, that's the main focus I guess. ✅

Have a good week mate.

Mmmmmmm Peppermint Aero, a king amongst bars!!!

Really enjoyed @deirdyweirdy's post so happy to see her get some points 👌

Yep, one of th better ones available. I like all chocolate though, sucks because I'm diabetic.

Yep, that was a good post, there were a few this week for sure.

I hope you're well, have a good week.

Ah shit that sucks about being diabetic, can you still have a nibble here and there?

I nibble things now and then. 😉

😁😁😁😁

Well I did a post today and it was about a Friday experience, but I get Friday's off in July, so it was a long weekend experience for me! Hoping I make the list!

This highlights post is only done for the posts that answer topics I set for the #weekend-engagement topics (released Friday in a post) and posted in the community. I'll have a look at your post though of course, I see them all.

Oh, okay, never mind then. My apologies. Sorry, it has been a crazy morning already!

Not a problem. I figured you didn't know about the #weekend-engagement concept I've been running for a little while now. No worries.

Yeah, I joined the community, but I forgot about the specific prompts you use. That's totally my bad.

It's ok, I'll have some new topics out on Friday.

You are able to post any weekend related content directly into the community any day of the week though. Any tag is acceptable, whereas for the #weekend-engagement topics entries that particular tag must be used. It's all outlined in my Friday post announcing the topics.

Gotcha!

I loved these topics, it was very interesting to read so many different perspectives.

I especially liked those girls who broke paradigms and dared to ask a guy out, more so those who had good results and of course a thumbs up for the stories of the guys who accepted in a good way and didn't judge a woman for that.

Here in Venezuela, in general it is a macho country, although with the passing of time many things have been changing. Some men still think "if he did it with me, he will also do it with someone else" and that kind of thinking disgusts me.

I get the impression that men are quite insecure in your country, which is why they feel they need to be macho/dominant to improve their feeling of self-worth rather than be content to just be themselves. Maybe it'll change someday.
