Weekend-Engagement topics: WEEK 273

I've been away from home for the last few days working near one of the big Australian eastern seaboard cities - too many people here, too busy for a country lad like me but I'm making it work. I'll get no weekend time off but I'll have the evenings and will explore around a little...but I'll sleep when I'm not working mostly, it's been draining. I hope y'all have a good weekend.
We're well into the sixth year of the weekend-engagement topic concept and it's really cool to see a few people come back every week and join in. If you'd like to get involved with the #weekend-engagement topics as hosted in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community then read below, and I hope you all have a great weekend.
A reminder, the tag to use is
weekend-engagementand you'll need to follow the rules I've set out because I'm inflexible with stuff like that.

- If you went blind overnight what aspects of your life would you miss the most and why?
- Without naming or tagging them, who is the Hive user you like the most and why? (Naming them in your post will earn you a downvote from me)
- What's the most fun you've had in bed? Explain.
- Name a time you showed contrition and a time you've been impenitent. Explain each situation and why.
- Do you think you (personally) should follow rules and direction or not? Explain.

51 commentsHappy weekend fam. I myself have been away from my home, but i just took my kids to go see their grandparents. It a village though, but you know sometimes village life is kinda sweet. I missed my home sha, but I'm also enjoying my stay here. I will be joining in one of the weekend topic soon. Have a wonderful weekend.
Have a good time away, hopefully a good weekend too.
Greetings @galenkp, I've been busy cleaning and organizing with my son. We'll be taking a break this weekend, and we also have plans to visit the museum. I liked Ulysses S. Grant's quote: "In abundance, there are many friends, but it's in adversity that you truly know who your true friends are."
Happy weekend, and hope you can explore the city where you're working!
Happy weekend to you too! I've had a good work trip so far, the weekend is coming up now and hopefully it'll be productive too. I will have the evenings to relax and will make use of it.
You know what? It has happened to me that in my adversity my friends were there for me in some way, but in prosperity envy took hold of them. That's why I now value the latter more.
The topics are great, there are two that caught my attention because they immediately struck me.
Rest and visit beautiful places, even if you have to work in the mornings.
Long days here, 12 hours or more but that's what I signed up for, what I get paid so well for and so it's ok. I'll get a bit of weekend to enjoy as well, not all bad.
Have a good weekend.
So plan that long weekend. It's worth it. Enjoy the place as much as you can.
I get you, I don't like too big cities and centers either, for a walk once ok but not more... I'm not a country but a peripheral dude
That quote is very true and often reworded by various other persons
Let's see if without holidays I can join this time
If you can join in then fine, if there's more important things to do that's ok too. Either way, have a good weekend.
Finished my work early so I had some time and made it, a few hours to the weekend still for me!
Take some rest after 12h work and enjoy the evenings
Good day and a lovely weekend to all, we have enjoyable and enough topics here to deal with thank you so much
Happy weekend.
That photo caught my eye. Is it somewhere in the outback? The stilts indicate an area prone to flooding.
I might try the weekend-engagement as well. At least it got me commenting 😂👍
That is a small village on the Kokoda Trail in Papua New Guinea, a trek I did a while ago. It has significant history to Australia due to the World War Two campaign against the Japanese who wanted to invade Australia.
Papua New Guinea makes perfect sense.
I actually thought the building style looked like the kind of thing that one would see in that region.
It must have been a spectacular trip. 👍
Great job.
It surely was a great trek over a week.
Topic 2 is very challenging, but not impossible. I think I know what you want 😁
Yeah man, should be good.
True friends are those who are always in your life, but they always show up when you need them and are there for you in adversity.
Being there for you when everything's going well, for parties and celebrations, doesn't make you a true friend.
As for the topics, they're interesting, and you have to think carefully to live up to the demands. Happy weekend. Cheers and greetings.
I'm glad you like the topics and hope to have a good weekend.
Can we only "name" one user? There's so many I like, they all deserve a mention and shout out so others will know how many good people there are on Hive.
You can, but mention no usernames, that's not what the topic is for, just to promote that there's good people here.
If I would went blind overnight I would feel really horrible. I would not be able to see the faces of people important to me. I would not be able to make art. I would not be able to watch basketball/ anime/ TV series.
It would be terrible.
Happy weekend to all my hice friends
Indeed, you too.
Here is my entry based on topic 2, the Hive user I like the most. I almost went for topic 3 on the most fun I've had in bed, but I'll keep that private for now. 😆

Cheers.
It will be a horrible thing to went blind overnight but well it is an assumption, it is a great topic cos sometimes you have to prepare for the worst
One must be prepared.
A very true statement by Ulysses Grant. True friends are those who remain by our side in times of adversity. I wish you all a happy weekend.
Happy weekend to you too, I hope you have a good one.
Time to dust up my 87 pages tractate about the evolution of rules and why they're awesome! Would be interesting to re visit this topic, I had written a post about it in response to a post that your brother wrote, around 6 months back I think. But since then, many conversations within and outside of Hive had me develop a lot more ideas and pushed me forward in my reasoning, so I think I can approach it from a different angle. If I see that I can't, I'll do another topic.
Anyway, lots to do this weekend. Jam session tonight, tomorrow morning I have to get to Lily's school for a minga (every family comes and we clean and repair and such things), and then there's a Chili Cookoff in the afternoon. Sunday Lily wants to play with a friend. Monday school starts again.
Wishing you the best powering through the big city days, and afterwards a nice relaxation time. Take care!
It sounds like you've got a great weekend happening, make it awesome. If you get the chance get involved with the topics too.
All good here, 13 hour days at work but some time in the evening to relax. Not too bad.
Go rock that expense account in an adequate manner!
Lol.
Nice topics for the weekend 👏👏
Cheers.
Happy start to the weekend, eagerly awaited by everyone, to do something different from the week's activities, whether it's relaxing, enjoying time at home, or just being quiet.
Greetings to all
Happy weekend!
Although I may not be able to write this weekend (and maybe I will 🙂 - the question is how I will do with the plans for this weekend and how much the weather conditions will spoil my plans), I would take the opportunity and agree 1000% with the quote. These are the only true friends and there are not many of them in life!
A small friends group of good friends is better than a larger group of average friends. Have a good weekend.

Amazing
The need to show up even when we are down is what makes us feel useful to ourselves and others. I can't wait to read what other users have in stock but pending that time, here is my entry

Hello team, my entry:
https://hive.blog/hive-168869/@lisfabian/i-like-it-and-something-else-or-week-273
Hello friend, I saw a post by another user and I really liked it, but is there still time to do it?
There will be new topics later today, the concept runs only over the weekend on which each set of topics are released.
Thank you, I'll keep an eye out. Best regards.
