RE: Follow Friday: Ups and Downs

in #hive11 months ago

Thanks for the news. You have become my HIVE BBC, HBC maybe :D

The Kindness project is very interesting. Normally I would not join as I tend to be very cynical or practical from time to time. However I decided to take the plunge, especially considering the effort Greg takes in that area. The result, Kindness is not easy, in the sense of consciously doing it or doing it under the pressure of daily life stress. Yet, I am happy I started doing it and hope to get better understanding.

UNHIDE looks interesting. If I can carve out some time I could help on the doc side probably. Will read up more.

Loved the Friday follows as usual. It was good as I did not realize I was not following Greg :D Don't know how that happened.

Good Sunday morning overall :D

I try to provide services to the community. It seems people appreciate that. It's my bit of kindness :)

Interesting coincidence. I was going to send this in some way to you. But here seems good enough. 🙏 Ta @steevc

I could read it fine. My handwriting is terrible.

I think one of the biggest benefits the internet has brought is to connect people around the world based on interests rather than location. We would not have met if it hadn't been for 6SB and our love of guitar.

I think Hive has great potential for bring people together. It has its own issues, but some advantages over other platforms.

True. The 6SB community was the first I was in which was global yet unifying. Based on the subject matter I would have expected the community to be large, but it was surprising that despite size how positive the attitude of the community was despite it being made by people from all walks of life and from all ways of thinking. The only minus point of not being on FB or Instagram is missing many of them.

I will keep trying to do positive contribution here as I learnt there. If nothing else this is good for my own mental health as @gregscloud had highlighted in his article on kindness.

So thank you for not giving up one bringing me here :) And apologies for the one year I wasted before I started in full earnest.

I don't like to pressure people over Hive, but I will make them aware and then it's up to them what they do. I'm happy you found your 'village' here.

If my handwriting is pathetic i will send you text later.

I sincerely appreciate the mention for the kindness challenge. I will definitely be doing more of them. I received some great feedback and participation. If just one person benefited, that is worth everything.

People like a challenge and I'm all for encouraging good behaviour. Keep it up.
