RE: Weekend-engagement week 20: An hour with...

Here is my answers to this weekend question, I will try to go straight to the point. Let's continue:

Which hive user would I spend one hour with: that would be @martinstomisin, and why because he have a good sense of humor even though he doesn't post regularly, he is always present to make you laugh with his comments and chat, he is a nice fellow to be with so spending an hour with him would be fun

Which person past or present would you like to .spend an hour with:That would be my dad, and why because I didn't get to spend much time with him, we lost him when I was little so spending an hour with him would be a great deal for me because there would be a lot to talk about or places to go together. I guess it can only happen in my dream.

What is your ideal way to spend an hour of your time: that would be movies, why because I am a fan of movies, I love movies and animation but recently, I have not had the time to see some interesting movies I got lined up. That one hour would be put into good use by seeing a movie.

Sort:  

I can relate to your second choice. I too lost my father tragically and prematurely and I wish I could spend at least one hour with him. There are so many things I'd like to ask and tell him. He was the best father and I miss him every day.

I understand, we all wish the same to spend time with our lost loved once but they are always in our hearts

That sucks sorry to hear that! Parents and close family are so important, being a young parent myself I try to treasure all of the moments and pass on everything I can to our sim just to make sure I do my best job in case I am tragically taken one day. It gives you a different perspective for sure!

I think I can find some common ground with your friend there that doesn't post often. I went through a long time where I wouldn't really post much but I was always in the comments and engaging. Those are good times indeed so it's great to have people like that to chat with!

Sorry to hear about your dad but I think it would be very special to enjoy some time with him, those are important moments I wish you could get back!

Its really nice to engage with other people's post, it gives room to know more about what the post is about. Are you back on posting now?

Thanks for the kinds words towards my dad.

I know @martinsontomison, he is really a fun guy. I am sorry you lost your dad when you was little. Having an hour with him would be great.

I love movies as well but I don't really have much time for it.

Thanks for the kind words, it would be a dream come true if I could

I had a look at the post feed of @martinstomisin - Yeah, doesn't post too much but I'll take a look at what's there in greater detail and see what I find.

It's been a popular choice to spend an hour with a departed parent or family member so I'm not surprised to hear that's what you would do with your hour if you could. I think it's a good way to spend that hour.

I also like movies and so am with you on that one! I also like watching shows, like series and all. I'm watching Strike Back at the moment. Pretty cool.

Anyway, thanks for joining in this week and I hope you'll throw a post in the Weekend Community as well.

!ENGAGE 25

@martinstomisin is always at the comment section of your post, thats where you find him. He enjoys the interaction.

I love movies both series and non series but I don't really go choose series most times because I don't like seeing it halfway neither do I like getting interrupted when seeing one so in other to avoid that I spend time seeing non series that wouldn't take much of the time.

Am happy to participate in this weekend engagement, have read some interesting comment and also inspiring once also. Thanks for such a great question

Thanks for calling my attention to this

And so sorry. I haven't been active here for the last two days, due to the issues affecting us all... The PHCN refused to give us Electricity, and things getting tough. Hopefully it would be resolved soon...

Will be in touch soon. And sorry about your loss. Don't worry! You'll surely make it through

Its nice to have you back

Thanks dear @jizzyjoe

Send me your WhatsApp number pls

Come over to discord

Thanks @galenkp

Nice meeting you here!

And you too. I see you post only sporadically but certainly enough to capture the attention of others and to to have someone mention you on my topic post last week. Keep up the good work.

Thanks so much @galenkp.

I just love spending most of my time reading,and commenting on post; I feel everybody's post deserves some love and all... Though, I don't have much HP or anything that can make me to reward their post, but I feel commenting on people's Post should do a little...

A comment on a users post can make a massive difference to them, especially if they only get a few, or none, usually. The vote isn't quite as important as the connection, the fact that someone took the time to read and comment...That's why I work so hard to promote engagement through initiatives like this.

You're definitely right, the commenting section is really the best thing. And what's the extent of writing posts (with a quite of effort) when no one reads them? What's the essence of the post then, when post driven by an emotion or inspiration is put out for the public to read, and no one is there to read and comment?

Yep, I agree. Unfortunately though, many don't understand it. They come here and think that writing with effort and quality is enough. Then they realise they're getting nowhere and instead of outbound-commenting to build relationships they do the easy option which is reducing their quality until what they produce is best placed in the sewage treatment plant...And they still wonder why no one comes to their posts.

It's a plague here to be honest and people need to wake up and realise that relationships are important.

It's best to start commenting, to build relationships and nurture them at the same time as producing some good posts so those where relationships have been built have something interesting to see...But that's all too much hard work for many people it seems. You know, the amount of people I have begging me for votes on Discord just because they think I have a medium sized stake...It's not a good look. The funny thing is, that I'd support them with everything I had if only they approached it the right way, through quality, and consistent, engagement.

Oh well, that's the way of the world. They do them, and I'll do me.

Thanks for your great words.

You're definitely right... I go with you. Creating relationship with others really matters a lot. Most people I have seen here so far write well, and are rewarded for their quality post, and they, too, always forget that writing a great content is not enough, but building relationship with others and commenting on other People's posts is absolutely great. Sometimes, we need to comment on other post to show some love and all.

I hope to spread these words to others so that they'd be aware of all these things @galenkp

Well, I have heard a story like that, like how people beg for votes, well, I don't blame anybody for that, I feel we should always spread the good news to them, telling them that it's not all about the rewards every time, but it's all about showing their interest on other post (commenting) and building relationship as well.

Right now, I'm still trying to build relationship with others by commenting, and I can't reward due to a low HP, and most time I try to upvote others, their rewards (SBD) drop, and so I stopped upvoting (unless no one upvote that post)

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. But I do believe he is always with you.
We have similar interest: movie and animation 😊

Thanks for the nice words, am trying to be responsible thats why I don't spend all day watching movies or animation. That's one of the things I miss as a kid😒

I followed @martinstomisin if he asks I'll tell him he came highly recommended.

I am a little surprised that so many people picked a relative for this second answer. When I read the post my first thoughts were to Socrates or somebody like that. I went with my choice because of @trangbaby 's nephew.

You ought to look up @zord189 He's a professional animator and his story of how he got there is really good. I know you know where to find him :)

@bigtom13 I guess it's easy to describe the feeling and tell the reasons why we love spending time with our beloved 😊

🤣thats nice, I also followed @zord189, I have seen him on discord mainly in #powerhousecreatives, will tell him he came highly recommended. Thanks

For the second question, I wanted to pick a celebrity or someone popular but I figured the one closest to me, who I miss would be better.

Yeah it's nice that a lot of people are choosing past relatives. We tend to forget how important they are to us sometimes!

That's true but they are always in our hearts

bigtom13...
You're highly recommended too. I really do enjoy your conversation on discord. Well, I really do enjoy your conversation on discard. Well, Just seeing your message now, I haven't been active here for about two days now, due to issues surrounding Nigeria at this moment, and there haven't been electricity and all... Hopefully, things will be resolved soon...

I'd like to spend time with departed ones also that I didn't get a chance to. They have memories and advice from their growing up that only they can impart to you.

That's right, its really painful that we loose them at an early stage.
