So far, the Hive Learners' featured topics have taught me a lot of lessons as a blogger. It has contributed to many of the changes I experience today in my blogging life. Like I stated in my previous post, I started participating in HL featured topics on the first day it began and have continued to do so. The initiative of the weekly featured topics from the HL community came at the right time in my life when I was contemplating quitting this space due to the writer's block with which I struggled several times in my early blogging days. I could go days without coming up with content ideas aside from the motherhood blogs I create once in awhile, but my blogging story totally changed with the help of these same featured topics.
What Changed?
Most of the HL weekly featured topics have a way of making my mind travel back to old memories, right from childhood to adulthood. These are topics that ordinarily my mind may not reach that end and whenever I share, my amazing readers always have something to learn from me. The topics changed my thinking faculties to a larger extent. The amazing part of it is that different authors approach the same topics with different views, and I keep bagging knowledge for my dear life. Isn't that amazing?
It will interest you to know that HL members has deep thinkers who after engaging in your posts, they will drop comments that will give you more insight to the topic of discussion and you as an author might be tempted to edit the post to include those points. Sincerely, this has happened to me several times. I have been influenced by the members through their wonderful, thoughtful engagements consistently on my posts, and their thoughts have broadened my knowledge on so many topics.
HL featured topics has made me to be a creative thinker, I was so much limited in the way I approach topics before but reading from other authors here via the featured topics and handling the many given topics so far, I have been naturally forced to come out of my comfort zone to think deeper like others. If you ask me, a lot has changed about me, and I value that a lot!
The unique friends I made
Talking about those friends I have made in the community so far in the past one year who has helped my engagements and made me a better blogger, permit me to present to you my number one person in my lists. I have watched him closely and have been positively influenced by his activities in the HL community.
I call him the power house of HL community
A picture of DLMMQB with his permission to use it
@dlmmqb has been a great influence on my engagement activities in Hive general and more especially in the Hive learner community. If you know DLM very well, then you should also know that one of the things he loves so much about this blockchain is seeing people make quality engagement, even more than posting if possible. He believes that we should always learn to give rather than take. And engagement is a better way of showing your commitment to the system.
Have you taken out your precious time to create contents, probably for hours, published them, and found no soul to engage in your article? If yes, how did you feel about it? Sad? Or maybe you're not sad because you still got a reward? Well, I don't know about you, but I love to hear feedback from my readers after creating contents, and not just the reward aspects, because our main purpose of publishing should be primarily to pass a message and hopefully reward follows.
Having said that, I have seen @dlmmqb's comments several times on those people who drop spammy comments, and in his words to them, it's all about cautioning them to upgrade to a better engagement. Honestly this act of him shows how much he wants HL community to thrive with good record and not be a community known for such shortcoming. I have also seen him commend people that makes quality engagement in the community and whenever I see all of this, it awaken the more quality engagement in me.
If you have been in the Saturday hangouts and Monday heart to heart live session with the hive learners community, you will notice how DLM is always after the progress of the members and the community at large. He has been an amazing soul who seeks the best for our noble community. I appreciate and admire how adept you are with matters concerning Hive and HL specifically. In one of the live sessions we had, he talked at length about becoming a better blogger. He raised valuable points which has contributed greatly to my blogging journey and I know it has also to many that were present on that day.
I think I have said much already but there are still more to his good deeds in the community which has affected me positively and I felt like pouring my heart about that on this post.
I have made dozens of friends in this community, maybe due to my extroverted nature? Lol, it's not my fault anyways; God has blessed me with plenty of unique friends here, and I am going to tag most of them now, but because this post is getting lengthy already, I wouldn't review their impact individually but collectively, so please bear with me
@vickoly ,@momogrow , @quduus1, @george-dee @merit.ahama , @hopestylist , @princessbusayo , @princess-dara , @burlarj , @bruno-kema , @prayzz, @starstrings01 , @josediccus , @olujay, @mercysugar , @treasuree, @glorydee, @actordontee @yahuzah , @abu78 , @depressedfuckup , @justfavour, @gone-hive @emreal , @adaezeinchrist , @hivedeb , @vikar, @amberkashif, @kushyzee, @abdul-qudus, and @moremoney28 and many others I can't remember now, please🙏
These amazing friends of mine have assisted me greatly in my engagement and blogging activities through their positive feedback, well-thought-out comments, ideas on how to do better whenever I run to them, vital information they bring to my table most times, corrections on my mistakes, their lovely posts, which have given me a wider view of life with lots of value added, etc.

I was totally away from Hive for more than a month. Reading this of your post just now.
You have talked about @dlmmqb at great length and it feels like you had to put a psuse intentionally, else this post would be twice as long as it is now. Hehe. Dlm has been putting hreat efforts in the project he has been in. His work speaks for itself.
By the way, @nkemakonam89 , I must say that you sre among the most amazing bloggers I have come across. Your consistency and efficiently baffles me. I often wonder how a mother of 3 young children manages to be so active and responsive in the online world. It's remarkable. More powers to you, sister.

Hey Amber! Thanks for the shout-out. I had done alot of things on chain and off chain. Not everybody will agree to my each and every decision so I do need support always. Doing work is one thing and continuously listening to people cursing cause abuse get caught or cause they did mistake 3rd time even after being pampered and trained and many more cases. It's always a burning out suitation when people curse cause they don't get my support, for any xyz reason. No one is entitled to get my love just cause they r abc user. Thanks for believing in me. We have a long way to go. We will not any meet love and support but also 1 in 1000 haters so we have to hold our grounds and not get burned out. After all we r building something bigger thus bigger challenges.
Thanks for being my only most diplomatic comrade. Your diplomatic approaches helps settle suitations in a better way and I also learn alot from you in each slippery slopery suitation. Also, you were away but kept the ball rolling like always. Some new initiatives started in HL, major ones. And some new souls in hivepakistan. We have a long way to go. :)
I am short of words but just know that you are loved by many
Keep being whom you are my friend ❤️✅👍
Nobody gets a 100% agreement from everyone. Foes and friends, criticism and compliments go side by side. The important is the thing what we derive out of them. The sincerity of your heart won't let you down.
Certainly
!LOLZ.... I am not diplomatic. I just tend to ignore and take things i lightly.
I need to catch up eith so many things.

An elder's view is always full of wisdom. I feel like reading this article throughout today😁 it's really a privilege to be part of this family.. a popular song by Hillsong has it on one line that; I came here with nothing but all you have given me.. heheh I think if we give that accolade to the hive Learners community, it is well deserved.
Most of found the weekly featured topics when we were almost giving up but it took us and gave us hope and a mean to survive on the platform.
You don't know how big my head has swollen that I am mentioned among the honorable friends of yours.. it's a big privilege.. thanks so much Mom. Plenty love from your boy🥰🥰❤️
I really love the wordings of that music 🎵🎶😊👍😂
Ur big head swelling and bursting? 😂😂

Since I have my mom by my side, even if it's burst I've got no fears🤣🤣
Thank so much Mom🥰🙏
