about 13 hours ago

OurPick encouragement program is part of the @Liotes ecosystem, where quality posts are curated. Authors are encouraged to continue creating content, adding value to various communities, and contributing to Hive in general.

Created in Canva.com

Occasionally, we will select a couple of outstanding posts that we find particularly interesting and suggest them for your further reading... We hope it will help authors as an additional promotional tool... We support creators with our upvotes in Hive, but also in other tribe tokens! These Hive-Engine tribes add extra value to the entire ecosystem, helping authors and curators follow their niches and dreams...

Tibbi Talks: Why do we have ads on 3Speak now?! by @tibfox

I see nothing wrong with implementing ads on the 3Speak platform! Maybe some other ideas will come up along the way, but currently, getting healthy revenue is the way to go! I hope other platforms, frontends, or dapps in general will follow the example and base their growth on a business model where the value is sold, and revenue is shared among participants...
Good to see you doing well, and hopefully, you will find more time for some nature walks, as they do clear our minds and bodies... On that note, I should follow this suggestion and do it more often too... hehehehe... I forgot what it looks like to create walk-and-talk videos, and I was doing those regularly in the past...
Oh, the evergreen content will become more and more valuable, as with your revenue-sharing model, creators can be paid AFTER the 7-day HIVE payout lock! Good move!

𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒔 𝑭𝒂𝒊𝒍 𝑻𝒐𝒐! by @amiegeoffrey

I'm sorry to hear you made a mistake that you had to pay for with your own money to "own it"! 😞 Nobody was born the smartest and most skilled, and everyone makes mistakes now and then... I know you learned your lesson, and this will make you even better and even more professional! The most important thing is to value yourself and to factor these kinds of things into your price too!

El cisne negro // The black swan by @enraizar

We can change the script of our lives when we realise that there is a pre-existing script, one we chose a long time ago, and we become spectators of that script; we look at it from the outside and wave a magic wand so that the swan appears and gives us a message. Most people live out the script without ever questioning anything. It’s only when we start to question things that we can change it. The story of Little Red Riding Hood isn’t the same for everyone; it depends on our inner journey. You’ve created a new script, and that’s what matters.

La sonrisa del portarretrato / The Smile in the Picture Frame by @mamaemigrante

I was genuinely surprised by the ending of the story, that it was a photograph of herself which, for so many years, people who entered the place would look at and die, as if she were someone else, like a double inside a picture frame. Sometimes photographs speak volumes. A really good story, perfectly told, which keeps you in suspense the whole time, those are the ones I like.

It's Time to Grow Up by @macchiata

I know exactly what you mean; I’ve been through some very tough times in my life, such as not knowing what I’d eat the next day and seeing my mum and grandmother worrying about how they’d feed me when I was a child. The uncertainty, the pain, the despair and the anguish were things I experienced every day, but after a long time, a light appears, even if it’s only a very faint one. A path can open up before us and lead to some very good things, perhaps not easy things, but ones that, in time, will give us what we need.

Hive Open Mic Week 338 – Sueños Cotidianos (Original Song ) [ESP-ENG] by @edwardstobia

Songs are poetry set to music, full of emotion, and when we sing, it takes us back to the moment we created that song. I haven’t written any music, but I have written poems, and the same thing happens to me: when I recall those moments when I wrote them, I feel just as moved as I did back then.
The lyrics are lovely; you really do write such beautiful, moving songs, poured out from your soul and heart, which truly resonate with those listening. There’s also so much tenderness in the words and in your voice. Thank you so much for your music, your work and the quality of it all.
