It is a privilege to curate for #MSP-Curation every Saturday as a part of the @Minnowsupport initiative. "Peace, Abundance, Liberty" is the motto of PAL, which supports all Hive users, but notably the minnows.
Every Friday and Saturday, I get to pick from articles particularly submitted to us by minnows for consideration in answering the Ladies of Hive weekly prompt by the moderators.
And what a wonderful opportunity to pick five articles from Ladies of Hive, which is my main focus!
The question asked of the ladies was: Would you accept an all-expenses paid trip to another country but it means spending the holiday alone?
@aunty-tosin
All my life, I've been spending my holiday with my family members and friends, All year. I've never been alone during the holidays.
In life, there are decisions that must be taken to get the better version of you.
Looking back at the struggles, up's downs, the battles, and everything as a whole that happened this year.
I won't mind an all-expense paid trip to another country like the Bahamas. I think I need the time alone.
The year has been a bit rough with my mom's health came financial challenges here and there trying to get everything required for her health and meeting up with my own needs.
I ran in and out of debt on several occasions just trying to meet up.
It has really been a struggle but towards the end, I was able to meet up with some of my plans and my mom got better.
The Bahamas has been a place I dream of visiting some day. I've seen documentary of holidays in the Bahamas, the resort, food and drinks, island, pink sand beaches and a lot more.
Being there and visiting these places alone will give me time to relax, think, analyze, and plan for the next year. I believe that proper preparation prevents poor performance.

There's no doubt that I can't go on a trip alone in another country if ever I tried to travel. But not because I will be lonely - or maybe I will, but not that lonely. And the main reason would be because I am too shy to open my mouth to ask for help, and what if I encounter that while away in another country? What's going to happen to me? What if I was lost somewhere, and here I am still contemplating whether to ask for some assistance or not? There's a low chance that I will do that. I might just ask for help on my phone rather than ask a real person. Crazy, I know.
But still, if ever some good samaritan gifted me with an all-expenses-paid trip to another country, I would still gladly accept it - and with a happy heart. I will also shower them with lots of hearts like this. That's a once-in-a lifetime chance that can only happen if I get lucky. And yes, even if it means spending a holiday alone, far from my family, and even though I am used to spending holidays with my family.
For sure, I will be lonely, especially since it will be the first time for me. And you know, if I am really alone on that trip, I am not sure if I can fully enjoy it because having even one person beside you while on the trip will really be a big help, especially for me. Like I said, I am too shy, and I am not even sure if I can go outside to look around and really enjoy that trip without an accompany, but I could try really.
@emanueledornelas
Well, for me, that's a very easy question to be answered... OF COURSE I'd accept it! Hahha.
I'm the type of person that's always up for new experiences. I've never traveled alone before and I think it would be an emerging experience with myself, my thoughts and wishes. What isn't there to like?
I know that for some people, the most important thing about Christmas is being with family but it's been a few years that I'm not with my own family for the holidays, I usually spend it with my best friend and her family, which now I'm pretty much part of. But this tradition began because I didn't use to like Christmas, since my family is somehow caotic, it wasn't the most delightful holiday. But I also didn't want to be a Grinchy kind of person, so I started spending this date somewhere I'd feel good.
I've never been to another country, that would be a new experience, a new story to tell, maybe new people to meet and a lot of content to post on Hive, haha. It would be a wonderful vacation.
Hope you liked getting to hear my answer and a little bit of my Christmas tadition story. What would be your answer to LOH contest?

@albesalazar
Sometimes being alone is a feasible option but in my life for a long time I will never be alone and you may wonder why? It is that since I became a mother my days are magical because I always wake up with a big smile even though I will not deny that the work is not easy but it is very full and honestly I would not change my old self with the person I have become now
Material things do not excite me as much as seeing my daughter's smile every day or my boyfriend's smile every time our little girl calls him daddy because we are living a trip with expenses paid but with destination to family happiness since being united has been the best gift we could have been given this year
Now, even though it is a dream, it cannot be denied that there are destinations that I would love to meet, but I would love to meet them as a family and that they may enjoy what I did not enjoy when I could and I did not, for this simple reason if I had the opportunity I would not accept it because I am no longer 1 we are 3.
However, every day the end of the year is approaching and there are always trips and this is no exception as I think of spending them with my family in my home state so you could say that it counts as a trip with a destination full of joys and one more than another tear that I do not think is missing because just as the family gives us happiness also gives us sadness to remember that there are gaps in the chairs where at some point I occupy a special being.
@tesoro4
Christmas is a time to share with family and friends, I would particularly invite Professor @elamaria who apart from being a great hiver of our hive, I have known her for more than 15 years although not familiar; She was always a patient of ours in the clinic where I worked for almost the same amount of years and without a doubt she is a very polite, affectionate, empathetic and very professional person, that kind of person with whom you don't need to have a coffee or share her table to feel like a great friend or a great person, she is one of those little people that transmits her good vibes, her positive energy when she welcomes you anywhere with a wide and sincere smile.
I guess she should not be surprised that I have chosen her, because she is a very friendly and helpful person and there must be many hivers who know her who think like me; she knows the affection I have for her both on and off the platform; there are several photographs I have with her because at any opportunity of any meeting we always manage to take one.
