Hello everyone!

This is the Lovesniper Retention curation initiative aiming to retain those quality content creators after making their introduction posts. It was observed that after newbies made their introduction posts, their succeeding posts are often ignored. This initiative will hopefully encourage the newbies to continue posting quality content and interact with anyone in the community. As compilation posts are also done, this will highlight the newbies and will give the community an idea which newbie to look out for.

Here the recommended posts for OCD upvote for this batch of love sniper retention curation:

We live in Temblador, a town in the south of Monagas state, Venezuela. And I remember perfectly well that there was a time when there were only decorations in one square, sad, shabby decorations with few lights. This year, I recognize that we are making an effort. We could do more, but for this year, the beauty of our little town is appreciated.

The Avocado Tree A majestic avocado tree grows in my neighbor's yard. Its sprawling branches provide shade and fruit to several houses. It's like a gift from nature. Life teems among its branches. One day, gravity overcame the strength of one of the branches, and after a sharp crack, it fell directly onto my roof. Instead of seeing it as a problem, I embraced it as an opportunity.

Hello everyone🤗, welcome to this beautiful week in Afritunes community, my username is Sundayayuba and am so full of joy, and happiness to participate this week in this Community. In this week, l will be singing a cover song and it is a song that really bless my life telling me about Jesus giving his life as a sacrifice so that I can be safe and be free from the power of sin and the Community. In this week, l will be singing a cover song title za mu yi nasara inda mu yi addu'a . This is truly a sure way to walk into victory , just like Jesus Christ told his disciples to pray so that they won't fall into temptation, in other words that they should be able to overcome the temptations . I discovered that one of the way to live in spiritual health is by praying always " Men ought always to pray" praying brings you to a point of total dependence and submission to God . It's also grant you access to invisible realities giving you authorisation over the visible realm , l tell you the truth that victory is sure when you pray. please mu yi addu'a .

Hello Hivers 🙂 I just wanna share my Throwback Thursday date with my mother at the beach last Thursday at two o'clock in the afternoon. My mother was a little bit stress and anxious about my younger sister NCLEX examination day and her situation as a Mom to her one year old daughter. So, my mother decided to go to the beach to unwind. So, we went to Roma Villarosa beach resort at Puntataytay in Barangay Sum-ag which is referred to the summer capital of Bacolod City. It's just twenty-five minutes away from downtown area of Bacolod City.

Anyway, in today's workout, after warming up and stretching, I first did front lever holds to activate my back and further warm up my body, also to maintain my front lever form. Then I did pull-ups, since it's a great exercise for the back, taking them to failure. After that, I did barbell rows with a supinated grip, since that works the lats, focusing on back width. Then I warmed up my biceps to start the biceps workout. I did supinated pull-ups and in a superset I did bicep curls with a resistance band, focusing on one specific head of the biceps, since the biceps has two heads and both need to be trained. Then I did barbell bicep curls to failure to break down the muscle fibers, and in another superset I did bicep curls for the other head of the muscle. Next, I did hammer curls for the brachialis, which is the muscle that makes the arm look bigger from the front. I took that to failure as well, and in a superset I finished with hammer curls with a resistance band to complete the set to failure. Then I did a forearm exercise.

Now, after five days at this fair, I can confidently say she was right. I’ve learnt about major upcoming fairs for next year, met owners of older brands who shared business wisdom, and received tips that will help me grow. The value I’ve gained goes far deeper than sales; it’s a mindset shift.

I was in Japan in August 2018 with four other visually impaired students, and we stayed at a hotel for two weeks. One afternoon, I needed to go to the restroom, which was located outside my hotel room. Since it was only our second day there, I still wasn’t familiar with the place. I asked my fellow participants to point me toward the restroom, feeling confident that I could make it on my own. At first, I walked with certainty, trusting their instructions. But soon I realized they had pointed me in the wrong direction.

John is Mrs. Rachel's son and his my good friend and these few days we've become pretty close. He told me how he wished he didn't have a sister, oh I forgot to tell you Mrs. Rachel also ate a baby, what's with women and eating babies, is this even legal, anyways he says girls are weak and they cry a lot and they can't play ball or fight because it's rough for them, Thank God!!! I'm a boy, girls are really missing out on all the fun. I like to disagree with John I prefer to have a sister because I won't get to share my toys, she would like a different type of toy, as for crying I can deal with it as long as it is not too loud or long and I can always play ball or fight with John. John isn't a fan of my idea maybe because he's not a fan of girls and I get it because sisters ruin everything I remember Paul and Pauline's birthday party. Paul wanted a sport theme but he had to share it with his sister, they both get half of what they wanted and before you know it the girls have over took the party turning it into a princess tea party, the boys had to learn how to drink tea and be elegant but it'd be pretty bad if John has a sister too, one girl is enough and I don't want to be dragged into playdates and tea parties like Paul.

The concept of urban agriculture became popular in Cuba during the 90s, as a consequence of the crisis. Before that, raising animals in the middle of the city was not only unnecessary but also prohibited. In the 90s, it became common to raise pigs in an apartment's bathtub, chickens on building rooftops, little goats and rabbits in gardens. Vegetable planting, on the other hand, was much rarer. Only now, surprisingly, is it becoming frequent to see plantain trees in flowerbeds. Even papaya plants. I still haven't found out who benefits from such fruits, because from always until now, even trees placed in well-defended backyards have been looted by kids and not-so-kids. The idea that neighbors get to see a single bunch of ripe plantains amazes me. Even farmers pick them half-formed to sell them before someone takes them.

In this session, I worked on static exercises like the planche, front lever, and back lever, as well as variations such as neutral and supine planche, Victorian lever on a bar, and one-arm back lever. In the first set, I noticed a slight improvement in the planche press. I managed to do a higher press, although it was difficult. I prioritized locking my elbows and maintaining scapular protraction, but during the push-ups, I felt like I was losing my form a bit. Even so, I was able to maintain the necessary tension for the holds. I consider it progress, after so much practice with this movement.

Hello Hive Open Mic family! Week 296 theme: "I Will Return." This time, I wanted to perform a merengue to change things up a bit. I was undoubtedly inspired to sing the song by Rubby Pérez, a Dominican artist who lived for many years in Venezuela and considered himself Dominican-Venezuelan. He recently passed away in a tragic accident while giving his last concert. This song is demanding in terms of tone, but I dared to perform it without any fear. It's called "Volveré" (I Will Return), originally by the Spanish artist Chiquete, and through its music, it tells a love story. A sailor arrives at a port, visits a tavern, and sees a woman who catches his eye. He buys her a drink to get closer to her and have a reason to talk. He falls in love at first sight, and she reciprocates his feelings. After spending time together there, she accompanies him to the port where his ship is docked to say goodbye, as she has to leave. She gives him a ring as a promise to return, even telling him that a star will show him the coordinates to find her again. The song was composed by Ramón Orlando, who offered it to other artists before Rubby Pérez, but they all rejected it. "Volveré" (I Will Return) was a hit in the 1980s, and not only that, but this wonderful artist also frequently mentioned Venezuela in concerts around the world whenever he sang this song, explaining that it was there that the song had been so successfully launched into his artistic career. Interpreting the lyrics of "Volveré," I feel and think that a large percentage of people in the world have experienced receiving a promise, mostly of love, that often goes unfulfilled. No matter how many times the phrases "I will return," "I will," "I will be there," "Wait for me," "I promise," "I will fulfill my promise" are repeated, they remain as unfulfilled promises. This goes hand in hand with a phrase that many have probably heard, and that many of us have even said: "My word is worth more than a signed piece of paper." Sometimes life's situations lead us to doubt the word of others because of their broken promises, but well, there is always hope. This song inspired me because even though I have left the country several times, when I have promised to return I have kept my promise.

Did you know that Filipinos absolutely love gatherings? It’s a big part of our culture to come together, especially during special occasions. Whether it’s a birthday, graduation, wedding, or any kind of milestone, Filipinos won’t miss the chance to invite neighbors, friends, and relatives. But among all these celebrations, nothing compares to the excitement and spirit of unity brought by the Fiesta, the feast day dedicated to a particular patron Saint.
