¿Sobre qué sentimientos o emociones te resulta más difícil abrirte y qué ayuda a que sea más fácil compartirlos?
~ 𝐀𝐍𝐃 / 𝐎𝐑 ~
~ 𝐘 / 𝐎 ~
2️⃣ What food or dish are you loyal to for life, and why?
¿A qué comida o plato eres fiel de por vida y por qué?

prompt: "What sort of image might illustrate: 'finding it difficult to share a particular feeling or emotion'"
Copilot™ suggested several things, one of which was:
"A woman with a speech bubble that’s locked by a small padlock. Her expression is thoughtful, conflicted, or withdrawn. This instantly communicates 'I have something to say, but I can’t.'"


Any post in our community using the #archon tag might be curated by the ARCHON project.

LadiesOfHive is a community that focuses on women — their interests, joys, passions, and stories of their journey through life. Not only does our community account @ladiesofhive publish our weekly contests and news, but we also comment and upvote most of the posts that grace our community page. A delegation to @ladiesofhive would enable us to have more flexibility in upvotes that we use to reward and encourage the women that post to our community.

Good questions @ifarmgirl!
Good luck Ladies of Hive!!!
Make sure you read over the rules again, and bear in mind the importance of sourcing your images or quotes, and may the greatest imagination win!
Seven suggestions (reminders) to consider:
Guard your password and keys carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner
The Master Password and the Owner key are only used to reset compromised passwords,
DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
Do Not open any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.
Buena suerte chicas!!!
Asegúrese de leer las reglas nuevamente y tenga en cuenta la importancia de dar atribución a sus imágenes o citas, y que gane la mayor imaginación!
Siete sugerencias (recordatorios) a considerar:
Proteja sus contraseñas con cuidado y solo publique con la clave de publicación,
Use su clave activa solo para transacciones de billetera, llavero, Peaklock y Hivesigner,
La contraseña del propietario solo se usa para restablecer contraseñas comprometidas,
NO pierda sus contraseñas; copiar y almacenar sin conexión,
No publique el trabajo de otras personas, ya sea fotos o escrito, sin crédito,
asegúrese de obtener todo su trabajo, incluso si es suyo.
Una etiqueta de presentación solo se usa una vez, y
Hacer NO abrir cualquier enlace en notas o comentarios que no sepa a quién pertenecen. Si suena demasiado bueno para ser verdad, probablemente lo sea, así dice el viejo dicho. No hay nada gratis aquí.❤️
