Mirror Mirror On The Wall, Who's The Richest of Them All - Happiness Mantra, PowerHouseCreatives Contest

What's up Steemians?

Last night (before you continue reading, I started typing this yesterday, but then my Steemit went error to blank page so many times) just before bed I read Hive account@arunava's posting how he could not leave any comments, and today as I browsed around Discord, people are questioning the same thing. Many cannot leave comments on Steemit front end, though no probs on alternative sites like SteemPeak for example. Are you having the same prob?

I am. At least I did when I read Hive account@acidyo's post on "What do you like about Steem?". I wanted to leave a comment, I got the error message. I thought to bug him on his Discord instead, but then, naaah, stop bugging people, TKF, you will get banned. lol

Then I saw Hive account@zord189's post for the ongoing contest for Happiness Mantra, and I thought, BOOM. That's what am gonna do. In a way or two, this is a way to reply to Hive account@acidyo's question.

You know how we have this slogan of "come for the rewards but stay for the community?"
I honestly believe in that slogan. Yes, not gonna lie, I did come first for the rewards, but then I got to know many, many, superb strangers. These strangers care for others, support others in any way and any meaning (some even got scammed, good gosh), some don't even want nothing in return, just genuinely caring. You need positive vibes, prayers, good thoughts, ears to lend, shoulders to cry on, these strangers rush to you. You need some funding/donations, these strange rallied to help you. (I literally stopped typing here, and took a break from trying to type on Steemit front end. I mean, I should have just typed on Words once learning Steemit went on and off, and caused headache :P)

So...in short, I lost my train of thoughts for yesterday, but as a start for my Happiness Mantra today, is this following line that was modeled by my littlest babe - he likes sleeping in his too big Steem shirt lol :) Whenever I come online, I have hope because of you, lovely strangers who believe in Steem AND the community, as much as I do. So I thank you for always showing up on my page. I try as much as I can to return the kindness. If I am being slow, just pull my hair to remind me, although not too hard though :)

I have shared it a couple of times that I love my library. It's like my happy place in the house. It's a library for myself, as it is only filled with cook books :P

Have you heard of Marie Kondo, queen of neatness?

Yeah am not too fond of her :P I mean, I love clean and neatness, for sure, and my books spark my joy, and yes, I do READ them all, because....I love foods :P So Collecting recipe books is only natural for me, and they do not have any cobwebs at all in fact, so I do take care my books :P

So whenever I am in my basement library and Marie Kondo's voice creeped into my head, I'd say:

Yep, I ain't limiting myself to only ONE mantra per day.

I have so many happiness mantras, actually. As a mother, I think majority of us tend to have tons of them hahaha You know raising kids take a village. These happiness mantra are great and gently reminder when the going seem tough, you know :)

That being said, Imma end this entry for the PowerHouseCreatives contest with the VERY important mantra to me, whenever I saw the house is like a shipwreck, where I feel like I just lost in the game of Jumanji, and that am not Snow White who can lure birds and rats to do the dishes and sweep the house clean. I take deeeeeeep breath, and say, "at least we create happy memories with all these mess".
