No matter what life throws at me, I try and make sure to get preachy once a week for #ThoughtfulDailyPost! @Wesphilbin waves the flag for us and runs @thoughtfulposts as the curation account that rewards thoughtful posts. Please join us in sharing your positive vibes on the blockchain and consider delegating.
Here are a few few bits of internet wisdom that caught my eye and qualified for discussion with a fantastic legion of followers, engagers and weirdos connected through the #hive blockchain. Brilliantly paired with meticulously curated music.
Hardship & Destiny
C. S. Lewis "was a British writer, literary scholar, and Anglican lay theologian." Not bad! Any Narnia Chronicles author and friend of Tolkien is a friend of mine.
The neat image caught my eye on this one then the first word my eyes settled on was "Hardship. Definitely looks like that guy has been through, and might be presently going through hardship. A strong warrior perhaps suffering defeat or loss? A hero?
Maybe just an ordinary person who was prepared by a great many hardships and found the strength to achieve something extraordinary. Maybe that achievement makes your destiny more clear and it becomes extra-extraordinary? I am sick of the word ordinary by now but love the common denominator being normal people like me.
Why is it that Billy Joel makes it as the soundtrack for so many of these posts? You're Only Human.
To Become Strong and Sharp
I thought Dokeshi no michi might be the author but no luck. A Japanese expression translated as "the path of the jester." Things that make you go hmmmm.
I love me some samurai and ninja movies from way back. From Seven Samurai to American Ninja and everything in between. The illustration is mesmerizing when you look at it for a while and brings me back to youth & loving the stories. Images that make you stop a sec while you are scrolling.
First we are bearing hardship, now we are getting beaten and burned. Life sure is hard isn't it? I am not sure I fancy my trials and lessons forging me into a weapon but a sword is pretty cool in my books. The pressure and heat of being smelted and bent in half a bunch of times seems many times more agonizing than what I have been through. I can't say the same for people in other parts of the world and appreciate the reminder. Better a weapon in a garden than a garden tool in a war...or something like that ;)
Things That Make You Go Hmmmm....
Nothing like getting thoughtful as it is not the mistakes that lead to wisdom, it is contemplating those mistakes. If being thoughtful is up your alley, you have the option to delegate to @thoughfulposts to increase the rewards for positivity.
https://hive.blog/introduceyourself/@thoughtfulposts/thoughtfulposts-introduction-or-a-thoughtfuldailypost is the post that started it in 2020!
I invite you to pen your own #thoughtfuldailypost any day of the week and share your insight on the world through your blog.
I am honoured to curate for:
Actually that'd be a really cool thing to have a group of swordsmen...
Hive meetups where we could actually engage in sword Play as gentlemen.
Something where we could have trials and tribulations within their respectful framework.
Place where we can challenge each other as well as grow together...
Hmmmm
That word is perfectly true and also gold will never shine without passing through fire
Same with coal and diamonds too! 💎
There is no how one will want to succeed and won’t go through one thing or the other
You’re really right
Nice one!
We appreciate you taking the time, to either use #ThoughtfulDailyPost, or otherwise help this Community grow. So...
Thank you!!
It is just like when a person works hard and if he doesn't get success once then he should never get worried and in the same way he should work hard again and again then he will get more success in the next time.
Most of us are not yet ready to pass through that fire to be made
