Hello dear sleepers and lucid dreamers or night owls ! I didn't expect such a participation and, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you ! 35 eligible articles in the space of 7 days, I think we had never reached such a sum of collective work and it is simply PRODIGIOUS ! Once again, thank you all for your commitment, those who have been participating for a long time as well as the newcomers :)
Some people must see this article and think... "But, he hasn't responded to my article yet? " I am well aware of that and rest assured that I will do so no matter what! I preferred to make this conclusion today as it's Sunday and also because the coming week is going to be very, very busy for me and I wouldn't want to abuse your patience !
However, with such a participation, the reading work, even if it is exciting (I won't do it otherwise ^^), takes a lot of time ! A time that I have in a fluctuating way as each of us I think. Of course, I'm ready to make concessions, but there are times when even with efforts, it's complicated to do the maximum :)
This is why necessary changes have to be made in order to keep things and challenges flowing smoothly and pleasantly. The above was important to read, but so is what follows !

Announcements
There are many ways to do this, and I'm counting on your feedback too (especially!) ! One idea would be for several of us to share the reading of the different articles. This is a first option. Another could be that a challenge is sometimes organized by several people, via the Discord channel... I'm also working on a possible badge, but I don't really know how to go about it, although I'll eventually figure it out.
If you want to get involved, you can contact me on Discord to do so (anttn#0799) and also in the comments of this article.
Regarding the awards, I would like to do a no-awards edition. For several reasons, although I know that most people are here on Hive for the pleasure of sharing and learning, I would not want some people to participate only for the rewards. That's why you can reasonably expect a future challenge without rewards.
In the same way, and in relation to what I had announced, I hesitate to keep the system with a first, second and third prize. There have already been editions where all HIVES or HBDs were shared equally. I've said this before, but this is not a drawing competition and there are no best and last, although there are some quite exceptional efforts compared to others...
That is why I propose :
Option 1 : We share everything. Everyone is rewarded more.
Option 2 : There are three main "winners" and the others share the rest and to tell you the truth, it won't be much...
You can vote at the end of this article, of course, I'm leaning towards one option myself but I won't influence you ^^ !
Anyway, before choosing winners if that's the option, I'll have to finish reading the last 13 articles and that will take a few more days ! That's it, it's up to you to tell me !
This being said and before moving on to your articles, let's try a little synthesis...! :)

An attempt at a synthesis...
Many of you responded and I was both surprised and not surprised that so many people seem to have problems with sleep. Of course, these worries all have different origins, depending on our age, our emotional, social or family situations and many others.
This is why it is difficult to give a complete picture of all that has been said in your articles, which may have been philosophical, metaphysical for some and, as I imagined, very personal and sometimes intimate too.
Sleep and dreams are the territory of the unconscious and very often the tensions of the waking state are found in the other. I have the impression that for many people, a simple meditation (concentration on breathing and letting go without wanting to follow or suppress thoughts) can help.
I often find myself putting things into perspective and I have to say that it helps me a lot too! Tell yourself that the earth has existed since time immemorial, that not everything rests on your shoulders and that life is meant to be lived and if possible lived well !
But what better synthesis could you find than to go and read some (or all?) of the articles, it is really interesting and enriching !

A little note for the end...
Please note that I created this community with the idea of unity in mind, so even though I am at the origin of it, I perceive this space as a place of freedom of speech, opinions and initiatives ! Also, if you want to propose something, a project, the result of a particular desire in relation to the idea of unity, you are welcome :)
We could for example read and comment on the articles of the participants together ? Another idea would be to organise the challenges in turn according to a monthly calendar... I'm looking forward to your possible proposals !
Here is also the Discord link - I'm not active enough there, but it's still a good way to communicate. This is also where you can share your ideas and proposals - as well as in the comments of this article !

As you can see, I'm a fan of owls, especially sleeping ones! And don't worry, this one is very sleepy! In fact, it seems that baby owls have too heavy a head and have to sleep like that until they are a certain age !
On this amusing note, I thank you again for your participation and your attentive reading !
Have a good Sunday and take good care of yourselves,
<3
Bonjour chers dormeurs et rêveurs lucides ou bien oiseaux de nuit ! Je ne m'attendais pas une pareille participation et, du fond du coeur, je vous remercie ! 35 articles éligibles en l'espace de 7 jours, je crois qu'on avait jamais atteint une semblable somme de travail collectif et c'est tout simplement PRODIGIEUX ! Encore une fois merci à tous pour votre engagement, à ceux qui participent depuis longtemps comme aux nouveaux arrivants :)
Certains doivent voir cet article et se dire... "Mais, il n'a pas encore répondu à mon article ?" J'en ai parfaitement conscience et soyez bien assurés que je le ferai quoiqu'il arrive ! J'ai préféré faire cette conclusion aujourd'hui comme c'est dimanche et aussi parce que la semaine qui arrive s'annonce pour moi très très chargée et que je ne voudrai pas abuser de votre patience !
Pour autant, avec une telle participation, le travail de lecture, même s'il est passionnant (je ne le ferai pas sinon ^^), prends énormément de temps ! Un temps que j'ai de façon fluctuante comme chacun d'entre nous je crois. Bien entendu, je suis prêt à faire des concessions, mais il y a des moments où même avec des efforts, c'est compliqué de faire le maximum :)
C'est pourquoi de nécessaires changements doivent voir le jour pour que les choses et les challenges continuent à voir le jour de façon fluide et agréable. Ce qui précède était important à lire, mais ce qui suit l'est aussi !

Annonces
Plusieurs pistes existent et je compte aussi (surtout !) sur vos retours ! Une idée pourrait d'être plusieurs à se partager la lecture des différents articles. C'est une première option. Une autre pourrait qu'un challenge soit parfois organisé à plusieurs, via la chaîne Discord... Je travaille aussi sur un éventuel badge, mais je ne sais pas vraiment comment m'y prendre, même si je finirais à trouver comment faire.
Si vous voulez vous investir, sachez que c'est possible de me contacter sur Discord pour le faire (anttn#0799) et aussi dans les commentaires de cet article.
Concernant les récompenses, j'aimerai faire une édition sans. Pourquoi ? Pour plusieurs raisons, bien que je sais que la plupart des gens sont ici, sur Hive pour le plaisir d'échanger et d'apprendre, je ne voudrais pas que certaines personnes ne participent que pour les récompenses. C'est pourquoi vous pouvez raisonnablement vous attendre à un prochain challenge sans récompenses.
De la même manière et par rapport à ce que j'avais annoncé, j'hésite à conserver le système avec un premier, second et troisième prix. Il y a déjà eu des éditions où tous les HIVES ou HBD étaient équitablement partagés. Je l'ai déjà dit, mais ce n'est pas un concours de dessins et il n'y a pas de meilleurs et de derniers, bien qu'il y ait des efforts assez exceptionnels par rapport à d'autres...
C'est pourquoi je vous propose :
Option 1 : On partage tout. Tout le monde est davantage récompensé.
Option 2 : Il y a trois "gagnants" principaux et les autres se partage ce qui reste et pour tout vous dire, cela ne ferra pas beaucoup...
Vous pouvez voter en bout de cette article, bien entendu, je penche moi-même pour une option mais je ne vous influencerai pas ^^ !
Quoiqu'il en soit, avant de choisir des gagnants si c'est l'option retenue, je devrai terminer la lecture des 13 derniers articles et cela prendra encore quelques jours ! Voilà, c'est à vous de me dire !
Ceci étant dit et avant de passer à vos articles, tentons une petite synthèse..! :)

Une petite note pour la fin...
Sachez que j'ai créé cette communauté dans une idée d'unité, ainsi bien que j'en sois à l'origine, je perçois cet espace comme un lieu de liberté que cela soit de paroles, d'opinions ainsi que d'initiatives ! Aussi, si vous désirez à un moment proposer quelque chose, un projet fruit d'une envie particulière en rapport avec l'idée d'unité, sachez que vous êtes les bienvenus :)
Comme indiqué plus haut, nous pourrions par exemple lire et commenter les articles des participants à plusieurs ? Une autre idée pourrait aussi d'organiser les challenges à tour de rôle selon un calendrier mensuel... J'attends vos éventuelles propositions avec impatience !
Voici aussi le lien du Discord - je n'y suis pas particulièrement actif, mais c'est tout de même un bon moyen pour communiquer. C'est aussi là que vous pouvez partager vos idées et propositions - aussi bien que dans les commentaires de cet article !

Vous l'aurez compris, je suis un fan des chouettes, surtout celles qui dorment ! et rassurez-vous, cette dernière est bien assoupie ! En fait, il semblerai que les bébés chouettes aient la tête trop lourde et doivent dormir ainsi jusqu'à un certain âge !
Sur cette note amusante, je vous remercie encore pour votre participation et votre lecture attentive !
Bon dimanche à tous et prenez bien soin de vous,
<3
