The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow -

馃敯 馃敯 馃敯
Redundant
Name three things, (items or services) that have become redundant in modern society but you miss having around or would have liked to experience for yourself when they were popular. Tell us what you miss about them, or what you would have liked about them and why, in a post of 300+ words.
Name change
Are you unhappy with your Hive username? If so, explain why, what made you initially choose it and what you would change it to if you were able make a change. Write a post of at least 300 words and use images you took yourself is possible.
For the men
If there was one personality trait you were able to change in women what would it be and why? This can be women generally, or specifically your own partner. A post of 300+ words is the minimum requirement and use photos you took yourself if you can.
For the ladies
If you could magically make the man in your life do something, (one thing), consistently and very well, what would it be and why? This has to be about your specific partner, don't answer about men generically. A post of 300+ words is the minimum requirement and use photos you took yourself if you can.
Childhood
Write about one single thing in your childhood (to the age of fifteen) that you enjoyed and value to this day. What was it and why do you remember it so fondly? This is about your childhood, not someone else's. A post of 300+ words is the minimum requirement and use photos you took yourself if you can.
Historical person
If it was possible to meet one single person from history (someone who lived over 100 years ago) who would it be, why do you choose that person and how would you explain today's society to them? Write a post of at least 300 words and use images you took yourself is possible.

Curation may happen on posts that comply with the guidelines but only on quality original content. This is a chance to showcase yourself to the community and to find and build new relationships. It's about engagement with others as much as it's about posting content.
