I'm feeling FREE because I don't have to go to work- to someone else's timetable, to someone else's business and work my guts out for them. Instead I can set my own timetable and work my guts out for myself instead and finally catch up on so many things that I have been trying to do for years.
So I am not only thankful that I am free, even though I am in my home in lockdown with 8pm to 5am curfews, but I am eternally grateful that I am also safe in my home, not in danger of contracting Corona V anytime soon, I have every thing that I need and I actually don't need much because I am so used to living so frugally for such a long time anyway, but what I would miss very dearly is my computers and my internet, because I have a purpose in my life and I need them to help me achieve my purposes.
So I am #AliveOnHive, #ThriveOnHive, saying #Hive5 in the #IAmAliveChallenge community for Day #43!
I am also eternally grateful for the such supportive people within this community and the Hive and I wouldn't be here saying this if @ErikGustafsson known far and wide as @Flaxz hand't of started this great community!
And if you want to become one of the special people within this great community to share the joy, the love, the tears and fears, then please check out Erik's original post here @flaxz/glmrrjya

Now here a photo of me from the front page of the Gold Coast Bulletin in Surfers Paradise from 1989/1990 and this one's for @BradleyArrow in honour of the T-shirt that he was wearing in his post today.
When I find and scan the rest of the photos and upload them so you can all have lots of Lolllls...😂😂😂
And now as for engaging on the #HiveBlockchain tonight (it's only been tonight because I have been photoshopping and editing all day- which is something that I've seriously neglected to do since I joined #PeakD and I can't afford to get so distracted anymore...)
Anyhooo, for the #IAmEngagedChallenge, I have found these fantastic posts and the people the wrote them and today we focus on the Earth- the very thing that keeps us alive and the very thing that we continue to destroy. So it's lucky that we have these very selfless and enlightened people in the Hive.
By creator of the #PowerHouseCreatives community, we see the beauty that her mum created around her before she sadly passed away with
keeping her legacy going by sharing LIZZIES SNIPPETS No. 7 - A weekly gardening blog dedicated to the memory of my mom... and you can read that here @jaynie/lizzies-snippets-no-7-a-weekly-gardening-blog-dedicated-to-the-memory-of-my-mom and where you will also find links to her previous posts too.
Then we meet with his Summer Garden Update: Evergreen Huckleberries here @solominer/summer-garden-update-evergreen-huckleberries and I don't believe that I've ever had a Huckleberry, so that's now on my list for the nest time I go back to the US to see my friends..
And then we have with a very thought provoking article about true happiness in Enjoy your life,value your time which you can read here @aunik/enjoy-your-life-value-your-time and
talks about children playtime and toys and the toys of today- from the manufacturing process and sourcing of the materials to the breakdown and replacing of the se 'toys' is what is causing so much of this.....
from who talks about waste and in this article, gives us Easy Tips to Help You Reduce, Recycle, Reuse to SAVE Ecosystem here @holudghuri/easy-tips-to-help-you-reduce-recycle-reuse-to-save-ecosystem because of this here......
who shares his disappointment with humanities lack of care for Mother Earth here @deepu7/environmental-pollution-and-its-harmful-effects-my-wednesday-walk-thoughts which is such a sickening and shameful thing to do- litter the very thing that nourishes us our entire lives.
Even though so many people from all over the world are reporting clearer waterways, animals and birds coming back, less pollution in the air, there are a number of hidden problems that this global pandemic has created around the world and I'm going to share with you a photo that I found on Facebook a few days ago. And it's something that I've mentioned here a few times over the past few weeks and it about stupid people being stupid by wearing disposable masks when they don't need too.
And this is what happens.
And on that note....Don't be a maskhole!
If your brain is clever enough to get your hands and fingers to open and use it/eat it, then surely its also clever enough to either find a way to re-use,recycle, upcycle it, or THROW IT IN A GARBAGE INSTEAD OF ON THE GROUND.......
So stay safe and stay healthy and be enlightened. Look after the earth as much as you would yourself, your family and friends. 😊
