The Next Chapter | July 2021 #HIVEPUD
"Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds that you plant."
- Robert Louis Stevenson
There's a time for planning & dreaming of what you want to achieve or even to reflect on how you perceive the future you are manifesting...
Then, there's the time for action, taking the leap of faith with eyes wide open....that moment when you know it's okay to begin again...to push aside the doubts, worries & fears we are all so conditioned to have...
That is what July represents for me.
June was a time of growth & healing....while I am always working on the shadows within myself, I am coming out of it with a wider expansion of my awareness. And in this, I place another piece to the puzzle of my own life journey & mission....
Aside from the patriotic holiday we will be observing this coming weekend (in the USA), I use this as a chance to reflect on how much I have to be grateful for....gratitude is truly attitude...
New life has been slowly forming in different areas of my life, such as the start of planting & growing my lavender (as well as my love for homesteading & gardening) ...
The Beginning 🌸
More To Come 🌱
And also, transforming my video content into something broader than just one genre...a renewal of things so to speak...
Also, starting a new type of stream of income with Pixie Post Designs.... you can see my gigs here.
But I digress... I am also learning to just BREATHE & slow down....life is not a race. We are only here for a blink of an eye. Being able to show up for ourselves to enjoy the JOURNEY is more important than the "end goal"...
Goals are motivating &, don't get me wrong, they are good to have. BUT if we don't stop & appreciate what we have, what we accomplished & how we have truly grown as individuals (& in the community here on the blockchain), then what does it all mean?
The Hive Hard Fork symbolizes that here on #HIVE as well....the start of a new chapter, better than the last. Sure, we will have obstacles & pitfalls (just like life in general), but we will also have victories & celebrations of those joyous moments we experience....
And isn't that the whole point? To embrace the ENTIRE experience - to feel the wide range of emotions we are here to have & to grow from within from the people we cross paths with; to find our own sense of the reality we are working to create...
Funny what I can learn from a mere 30 days...it will be interesting to see what the month of July brings... ;)
So, now the part you were waiting for....let's do this...
Before the Power Up
Power Up Time
After The Pixie Dust settles
I left a little in my wallet for other things, naturally! But 150 HIVE was a bigger power up I have been able to do in awhile & it feels great ....
Still confused as to what #HivePud is all about? No worries...check out @traciyork's post here, explaining the whole monthly tradition.
So, as we dive further into this month, I leave you with these words & wish you love, positive inner growth & a way to see the beauty in life that we tend to overlook at times...
Sending much love in the #HIVE Universe. Here's to more content creation, dapps, communities & continued growth on this beloved #blockchain ....
Always,
PixiePost
Totally agree, I think we must learn to enjoy more of the same road, while you travel, while waiting for the ''end'', we must learn that life is to live it, we do not know our time of departure, so it is best to go calmly, learning and sharing the good things that the universe has given you. Thank you very much for sharing this beautiful experience with us, these things motivate me a lot. Blessing! :D
Come say hi via Lotus Chat or drop by our community - we'd love to welcome you!
I am so happy that this content motivated you in some way. Yes, it is so important to be grateful for what we do have, not what we don't have. Of course, we are human so to say we have times we will be in the lack mentality, of course. But it's whether we STAY there or not. I am a firm believer in acknowledging what we feel & think, process it & then move forward as best as we can :)
Thank you very much for your insight & kind words! :) Many blessings to you and a happy July!💚

I always enjoy doing the power up at the beginning of the month. It is like a clean slate to dive into things we want to do :) July is going to be a good one, I can feel it.

You have some pretty exciting things going. Nice power up day too! Congratulations on your Pixie Post Designs gig! Happy Fourth of July weekend!
Thank you so much! Yes, I have a few irons in the fire. The trick is not getting burned ha ha. I tend to take on a lot when I am excited about trying different things. But slow and steady wins the race! My main thing is to enjoy it and see where it all takes me :)
Have a wonderful 4th of July! I hope you and your family have fun. :) Sending blessings & pixie dust! ✨💚

Check out the last post from @hivebuzz:
Gardening does help a lot yes. I wasn't much into it, until I got a succulent as a gift and slowly but steadily learned to appreciate this recreation.
All the best! :)
You know, it's funny...I really wasn't into it as much either. Both my parents kept a beautiful garden in the house I grew up in. I was always surrounded by beautiful flowers, tomatoes, herbs, etc. I appreciated it but didn't really care about doing it myself.
Now, a spark was lit so I am trying my hand at this, one step at a time. I would love to homestead (my boyfriend & I hope to do some version of that someday), but I live in a condo with a small patio. haha So...hence, the lavender and other goodies I might plant this and next year... succulents are AWESOME. Thanks for reminding me, I need to buy another one...."crazy plant lady" I can hear it now...🤣🤣🌱
Sending much love & pixie dust...💚

The same with me. When I was younger my parents tried to get us to help out in their garden, but when I became a teenager they didn't bother asking us anymore 🙈, as long as the other chores were done.
Hahaha 🙈, but that's so true... After my first succulent, I asked around and got two variants of Aloe Vera gifted to me, so the collection is growing yes 😅 and they are so easy... Especially for newbies like me hihi
Well hope you'll get there 😊💙.
