Thoughtful Daily Post - True Engagement - With Aliens!
Hello again dear one's!
True Engagement... as the title suggests; it does and can exist! Also... a positive way to spread my #thoughtfuldailypost movement!
Let me explain... I was planning on laying down the other night, but this weather change was messing with my Multiple Sclerosis so I hopped into the @theterminal Discord to show some love to our members. As I was reading through various posts, I found a post by my dear friend @jerrytsuseer entitled: "Alien in my dining room (sorry, no pics)", so I just had to see what this was all about!
No no lol, not THAT alien! You see, Jerry had a visit in his dining room by a lizard, and it spurred him to write a post to share the humor. This to me is the perfect example of 'true' surfing; finding something while looking for something else. As I began to read the comments, I learned there were other members sounding off on this (that I hadn't yet met) and this began to be quite a humorous adventure...
"So now I have an pale orange, alien lizard, hopefully a bug eater,
currently about 2 inches long, in my dining room."
So being the "P.R. Moderator" for @theterminal it is a habit to look through the Blogs of others I find, to see if they might need help. As I looked over @tk-421's Blog, I was immediately smiling! In the same breath, I found that @tk-421 had been brought to the Blockchain by @scubahead who has a cool thing going called, "Rocket Fuel Coffee Morning Ramble"... Either way, I would invite you to check out not only Jerry's blog but also tk-421 and scubahead...
So what's my point?
True Engagement - With Aliens...
If I hadn't seen the word "Aliens" I still would have looked. You see... since meeting Jerry I have learned that life hasn't been kind. He suffers from some health issues... I suffer from some health issues. He is a talented musician, that I am sure wishes for younger years, and yes... so do I. My point is... rather than focusing on the negative, I chose to do something positive; look through the creations of others, maybe share my experiences... Engagement...
...and look, I even learned about two new people! Both new to me... one new to the Blockchain. And what better way to welcome someone, than to include them into your space. Let them know they are seen... not just a random, "Good Post"... If you would like to see some of the content that's being created by these three awesome fellows, I will leave a random "clicky thingy" for you to... well...click!

wow thats awesome bro. Really cool incentive and nice to be appreciated for just having fun and engaging good hivers :) Thanks again and @galenkp for is the godfather of engagement on #hive. I think hivers like galen keep the wheels turning for us all. This is the way!
Don't get too excited!! I don't make much on my posts... but that's not why I do them, or why I am here... All kidding aside, a pleasure to meet you!
This is the way...
you too man. Yep same way with me there's the odd one that does really well but I do most of it cos I enjoy the whole process. The platform and the community. It all slowly builds and the more connections you make ( as long as they all remain) will mean a healthier return in the future.
@pixresteemer,
Thanks for the rehive!!
I am with you 100% of the way! I have been having a very difficult time finding people to truly engage with. That being said, I think that is mostly my own fault after trying desperately years ago on Steemit with no real success. Upon buying a computer for the first time since my old one broke, and finding HIVE, I have kind of subconsciously expected the same.
HOWEVER, I have found SO much more real engagement on here!! Including, only from last night, engagement with @scubahead themself and @tk-421 . The past few days are my first real attempts at finding serious engagement on here due to unsuccessful attempts on similar blockchains but more importantly, the reunion of my fiancee and myself after 5+ months of being separated by border closures and an international relationship. Obviously I haven't been on here as much as I would have liked.
But now I am finding so much more real engagement and I absolutely fucking love it. I also have frequently found lizards in my own, and others' houses during any hours; and am a huge fucking alien nerd; so I was immediately drawn to your post, as you were to OG post.
:)
it's what makes it all fun. Nice to get feedback on your posts and share stories. All good in the #hive hood
excited to interact with both of y'all more :) like @wesphilbin said, i was meant to stay up tonight and keep my computer open. interactions like this legitimately inspire me to have more faith in HIVE! i.e. spending more time on here
Stay spooky 🎃
^(that's just how i sign things; no relation to anything spoken of)
No worries. It's 1:35pm here. I'm at the dive shop. Not much going on at the moment with all the quarantine shenanigans so may bunk off in the afternoon

time spectrum*
lol I am the future
I am the walrus...
@herbertholmes2,
See? NO accidents in life!! I was meant to stay up... I was meant to meet you all... all for a reason, yes? I love that you have found some positive energy again. Makes my #thoughtfuldailypost movement worth the effort...
