Give and it shall return to you in good measures by @iskafan

The lesson I learned is that if I give without seeking anything in return and the universe will find a way to give it back. This is because if I had allowed myself to wallow in my misery and refrain from wishing my new friend well on her special day because I wasn't going to gain anything, I probably wouldn't have come this far in my writing journey.

The Space We Create, When We Let Go by @trucklife-family

As I began to unschool myself, many years ago, I wanted nothing to do with the so called conventional lifestyle.
I wanted to break away and find my own way, my own unique path. As I got older and wiser, I understood that it is how we choose to perform each task, that really matters. Even having a daily routine has its advantages, it does not have to be seen as a repetitive action that can trap us into a certain way if thinking.

Delay is not denial by @princess-dara

I couldn't pay my house rent and I couldn't take care of myself because the money isn't enough for me. So I went to seek advice from my elder sister and she told me if I could start all over again by learning handwork, I could have whatever I wanted by the time I am done with the learning, it was a very rough and tough time for me but because there is nowhere to hide, I stood on my feet and learned the work.

Lesson Learned by @minhajulmredol

For me and the others, I would always try to pass this lesson, not to expect something out of the box and beyond the limit, and always do remember that there are a lot of exceptions and those exceptions shouldn't be our example to proceed with. Calculated expectations are always fruitful even if it fails, you will have a valid reason to blame for its failure instead of regretting.

Bring it Homeby @r-nyn

Just like perfect timing can do wonders, you know the opposite.And I know it so well.
From that moment and afterwards, I have learned how to prioritise things and get the most out of it. I can’t say I have mastered it yet, but yeah, things are different now. And if you ask how did I do it, there’s only one answer— don’t waste your time. Even if you are doing it, make sure you know you are wasting it so you can connect the dots when to get back to your senses. Otherwise, it’s just a period lost from your life with nothing to be reflected on.

Waiting times are for great purpose.by @lara-bee

Life taught me never to give up on my dreams no matter what comes my way. Challenges may rise but I can overcome if I am determined to do so.
I learned that good things don't happen easily and for every great thing we dream of, we must work hard towards it.
l learned that every waiting period in life is an opportunity for me to improve myself.

Some tips

🔸 The community encourages authors to engage and build rapport with other team members by leaving meaningful comments.

🔸 If possible we recommend that authors try to use personal photos, however, if free images from the internet are used, please be sure to cite all relevant sources for photos and text.

🔸 Just a reminder that the weekly #KISS Blog Ideas is presented with ideas on topics to write about and to help you to structure your blogs, they are not meant to be questionnaires for you to list information and publish.

🔸 The presentation of your blog goes a far way and sharing aspects of your lives and your personal stories and experiences should be a lot more than a list that can be found in various places over the web.

🔸 There's no need for you to wait or only blog in response to the prompts provided. You're free to share any aspect of your minimalist lifestyle at any time.
