RE: Has Hive Improved You?

in Reflections11 days ago

What a great way to make us think a little bit more deeply about our "relation" with the community, and to make a self assessment of our actions and thoughts trough the interaction.

Are you better or worse?

Well, I think that I've changed in somethings, and became more resilient, not necessary to became better, or even worse... But to be more attentive to the things that happen around us, and the before, I didn't reflect on them so much... Or even on things that happen "inside" us!

Is it better to change, or stay the same?

Well, I totally agree with you in this point. Sometimes, changes aren't as desirable as we might think. Take for instances our personality. It is a positive thing, that if we haven't got any personality disorder, that by changing in it might lead us in to a rabbit hole that could turn our life completely inside-out. By the other hand, after a good reflection, and assumption of our less correct actions, a true change might lead us in to a more peaceful mind set with ourself and the others.

I've voted in only two options, the first one (and most important for me) "I have made friends I value"

I can say that I've know two persons in one of the Hive Fests, that I keep regular contact with them!

The second option that I vote for was: "I've become a better writer". This one is by far the most important personal change that operated in me since I started to be a more regular (daily) poster. And for that, your community "Reflections" had a very important part in that :)

But to be more attentive to the things that happen around us,

So many say "appreciate the small things" but their attention is only ever on the big and shiny things. So, anything that can make us be a little more present and localised, is good.

This is great! I only went to one fest in 2018, and am still in contact with several of them almost daily :)

I am also glad that the community helps you improve your writing and hopefully your thoughts on things also. Most of us are pretty clever, if we give ourselves the space to think and reflect on what is the best way forward.
