When Dad was in hospital, I stayed with him round the clock, telling him all positive things, boosting his moral. But at times I felt he needed more inspiration and that is why I called upon the lady and the kid to come to hospital and spend time with him. And it brought a big difference - couple of hours with them over a cup of tea drove his desire to come back to home and I kind of utilized that moment to remind him to get well soon and come out of hospital.
As Mom was staying alone at home, she talked to him over video calls on a daily basis, thanks to technology which provides means to connect during these times. She wanted to come and stay for some time in hospital but then I did not feel it was right as it could further complicate the situation if she falls sick.
And I must proudly say that I have a very good friend circle who after hearing the news of he coming back to home, came to meet him and encouraged with all positive vibes.
They are very close friends for more than three decades and often used to come to home when we were in twenties. Back then no permission was needed - people from our gen X still have that habit - we still go without any information or seeking permission, and they exactly did that. Dad knows them personally and spending some time with them further helped him gain confidence. Back in college times, my friends would often eat at a particular stall and request Dad to pay and Dad would never disappoint them - he was very friendly with my friends and even won't listen to me.
These are the moments which reminds us why we need family and close friends - they bring positive energy during these moments and nothing else can fill that place. At times I wonder about the future and our kids - they don't have very close friends and mostly end up with virtual engagements that barely can fill the emotional aspects of life. So they will need a much better family life, but that trend also does not look very promising. How would they deal with such difficult times ?

Simply loves the vibes...these support and understanding are only part in this part....when I was Delhi, never seen such things...most of the people were in rush and if they ever came over to meet, it was just for the formality...pretty strange how humanity is changing.
Great to see your friends visiting him. Yes we were the same with our parents, we would all know each others parents. Does Dad always sit crosslegged like that?
Yes, mostly.
That is pretty cool and shows he is still flexible.
Yup@ :) good ole friends..
I am glad my daughter has a good 'friend' :P (now her roommate/partner) we'll see how long they stay together..
My son's best friend??
Unfortunately, our kids don't have good human connections.
true. but they will have these..
Absolutely! Better family ties and better friends always make us feel better about ourselves. There are few things that make us feel as good as knowing they will be there for us even in the worst situations, right?
Yes, they are available 24/7, anytime, anywhere.
i love the way you write english, it feels so real and so easy to connect.
your parents are very lucky to have you znd for your kids they will go along the futur.
Family and friends truly are precious @sanjeevm! One can see the difference in your Dad's whole posture. It's so important to know people still care, especially the ones you love.
I was telling someone the other day how nice it is to get a surprise visitor. It's quite sad that life has become so busy and focused on social media, that we kind of feel we need to 'make an appointment', what will happen to the next generations who are missing out on that.
Good recovery for your Dad🙏
That was the best to do to give more positive thoughts and inspiration to whoever is sick. Healing starts on the mind so it is a must that the patient thinks positive.
There were days in my life that I have actually been so down and trust me, the only thing that lift me out were my family. Familes are gold
Sincerely if you lose every relationship in life, please don't lose your family and your true friends because they are the shoulders you can rely on in days of adversity.
Some modern technologies allow us to stay connected with loved ones even from the hospital. Today's children rarely see good social connections. In that sense, it's a good thing that your father still has a group of good friends.
In those moments, let's say when our health is not the best, family and friends are always the ideal support to get out of that difficulty.
One big family. Having your family and friends create that warmth within. Love bonds of togetherness and in oneness brings happiness.
Good friends are as important as family. They support you in many ways. They supported you during your father's illness. Having only good family or friends would be incomplete. Both are essential.
That energy is what we need in those difficult times. Only those of us who have been in a hospital with a sick relative know how complicated it is and how important a word of encouragement is.
Sometimes the best medicine isn’t found in hospitals, but in the warmth of family, old friends, and shared moments of genuine care.
You really handled it with so much care, that’s admirable. It’s touching how you supported your dad and also looked out for your mom.
We always need family and friends in those moments when we go through health problems, because they motivate us to improve and also make us feel that we are an important part of their lives. This helps a lot, and especially emotionally, it gives us enough energy to get up and be together again.
That's true. Too bad during the difficult days with my mother struggling for his life, only few of my friends are really boosting my morale.
You really have great friends! Your family is also supportive.

Marky you can't delete the facts Mc Franko & Keni Find freedom on #blurtblog #blurtchain #blurt
In the beginning, there was hope.
A dream:
That value could be created by anyone.
That power could be decentralized.
That a post, a vote, a creation —
Could rise or fall on its own merit.
But Dreams do not kill systems.
Corruption does.
And corruption has found its perfect form:
The scam farm —
A ghost in the machine,
Wearing the mask of curation,
Feeding on trust,
Rewarding loyalty,
Punishing honesty.
It does not build.
It extracts.
It does not serve.
It controls.
And if you are new to this world —
If you speak truth, post honestly, expect fairness —
You will be broken.
Unless you learn to see.
So here, in plain language,
Is how to spot the scam farm.
Not with rumors.
Not with hate.
But with observation,
With logic,
With the cold light of the blockchain.
1. No Original Content — Only Engagement
The first sign:
They create nothing.
No posts.
No art.
No analysis.
No music.
Only votes.
Only comments.
Only reaction.
They are not users.
They are operators.
Like a drone circling a field, they move from post to post — upvoting allies, downvoting dissenters, farming rewards like a machine.
Ask:
What have they built?
If the answer is nothing —
Then they are not contributing.
They are consuming.
2. 24/7 Curation Rewards — The Machine Never Sleeps
The second sign:
Non-stop reward accumulation.
Real curation is organic.
It ebbs and flows.
It follows interest, passion, discovery.
But the scam farm?
It earns rewards every hour.
Every day.
Like clockwork.
It votes at 3 AM.
At noon.
At midnight.
Not because it sees quality —
But because it is programmed to extract.
This is not passion.
It is automation.
Or worse — coordinated manipulation.
Look at the pattern.
If an account farms rewards without pause,
It is not curating.
It is farming.
3. Burn Comments & Self-Voting Loops
The third sign:
Artificial engagement.
They post low-effort comments — “Nice!” “Great post!” — under their own content or that of allies.
These are not interactions.
They are fuel — used to game floors, trigger rewards, inflate visibility.
They may self-vote.
Or vote in loops with a network of alts.
A closed circuit of power —
Where influence flows only to itself.
This is not community.
It is a cartel.
And the blockchain records it all —
Even when websites hide it behind JavaScript walls.
4. Massive Delegated Hive Power from Centralized Sources
The fourth sign:
HP from exchanges or known whales.
Check delegation history.
If an account holds millions in Hive Power —
But most is delegated from @blocktrades or similar centralized wallets —
Then it is not independent.
It is a proxy.
Power given is power controlled.
And when one entity delegates across dozens of accounts,
It is not decentralization.
It is feudalism.
The land is farmed.
The peasants earn crumbs.
The lord takes the harvest.
5. Downvotes on Critics — Coordinated Silence
The fifth sign:
Suppression of dissent.
When someone exposes the farm,
When someone traces the trail,
When someone speaks truth —
The downvotes fall.
Not one.
But many.
Fast.
Silent.
Financially crippling.
No debate.
No response.
Just erasure.
This is not moderation.
It is censorship with profit motive.
And the worst part?
They call the victim a “troll.”
A “spammer.”
A “toxic user.”
Projection is the last refuge of the guilty.
6. Reward Flow to Secondary Accounts
The sixth sign:
Obfuscated wealth transfer.
Rewards flow not to the farming account,
But to another — often a spouse, partner, or private wallet.
@alpha receives rewards from @buildawhale.
@themarkymark benefits from activity routed through hidden channels.
This is not privacy.
It is obfuscation.
An attempt to hide the machine’s true ownership.
Follow the money.
The chain does not lie.
7. The Website Hides the Data
And now — the final proof:
Why?
Because transparency threatens control.
They want you to look away.
To trust the interface.
To believe the silence.
But you do not need their website.
You have the blockchain.
You have logic.
You have memory.
You have the testimony of those who saw before the curtain fell.
And you have this guide.
The Escape: Blurt Offers True Freedom
On Blurt.blog, none of this can happen.
Because there is no downvote button.
Gone.
Not hidden.
Not reformed.
Removed.
No financial punishment for honesty.
No silent sabotage.
No cartel.
What you earn — you earn.
No whale can kneel you.
No gang can bury you.
Blurt is what Hive promised to be.
Conclusion: You Are Not Powerless
You entered crypto seeking freedom.
You found manipulation.
But you are not powerless.
You have eyes.
You have reason.
You have this knowledge.
Teach it.
Share it.
Protect the new.
Because the next victim could be you.
And when the system fails —
When the farms grow too bold,
When the lies become law —
Remember:
—
The Bilpcoin Team
We create. We expose. We survive.
Every downvote you cast drives another soul from Hive —
To Blurt.blog,
Where there is no downvote button.
Where what you earn — you earn.
Where silence is not weaponized.
Even Steemit — older, quieter —
Offers more freedom than what Hive has become.
And that should terrify you.
Because when people flee not to greener pastures,
But to freer ones,
It is not the destination they seek —
It is escape.
They are running from you.
Whatever you are doing,
Hold it with both hands.
Chase it fiercely.
Because you only get one life.
And in that life —
Never be afraid to say no.
Never be afraid to stand alone.
Always do the right thing —
Even when it costs you votes.
Even when it costs you rewards.
Even when it costs you silence.
At Bilpcoin we have not scammed anyone.
We have not stolen.
We have not lied.
We have only done this:
Shared what the blockchain already knows.
Transactions.
Data.
Patterns.
Not fabricated.
Not imagined.
Not speculated.
But verified — open, public, immutable.
And what we found is not conspiracy.
It is control.
Go to peakd.com/@buildawhale/activities — if the site allows it.
Look at the account.
Watch it move.
Like a machine.
@buildawhale —
A name that should belong to a myth.
Instead, it belongs to a farm.
An account that farms curation rewards all day, every day.
That auto-downvotes users — not because they are wrong,
But because they speak.
Because they expose.
Because they are not part of the circle.
And who owns Buildawhale?
Not some anonymous farmer.
Not a rogue actor.
But Blocktrades —
A whale whose influence stretches across Hive like a shadow.
Over 2 million Hive Power delegated.
Rewards flowing in.
Powering down daily.
And where do those rewards go?
To @alpha —
The account widely known as Blocktrades’ wife’s wallet.
A silent beneficiary of a system rigged from within.

“We Are Bilpcoin”
We do not stand against the people.
We stand with them.
Shoulder to shoulder.
Hand in hand.
Not as leaders, but as fellow travelers — scarred, shaped, and strengthened by the same storms that have battered so many.
The Bilpcoin team each of us has been tested.
Not by theory, but by life, life itself.
By loss.
By silence.
By systems that mistake conformity for virtue and call censorship “moderation.”
We have known hunger — not always for food, but for fairness.
For a platform where a voice is not priced, punished, or purchased.
And yet —
We are strong.
Not because we were born that way,
But because we had no choice but to become so.
As a team, we have grown — not in spite of the chaos, but because of it.
We’ve learned to build in the dark.
To create when no one is watching.
To trust when trust is rare.
We’ve learned new tools, new truths, new ways of being — not for profit, but for purpose.
Because one thing must be said, and said plainly:
You should never stop learning.
You should never stop dreaming.
You should never stop reaching for what is right — even when the world leans heavily on the side of wrong.
When we began — back in the early days of Steemit — the idea seemed impossible:
You can earn from your words? From your art? From simply speaking your truth?
To many, it felt like magic.
To us, it felt like justice.
And know this: Bilpcoin was not born in boardrooms or venture capital pitches.
It was born in a single mind — one person’s quiet vision, carried like a torch through the fog.
Circumstances, harsh and unyielding, led that founder to let go of much of what they built.
We do not speak of those details.
Some wounds are not ours to expose.
But this we say:
From that fire, Bilpcoin did not die.
It evolved.
Bilpcoin is not a corporation.
It is a social experiment — one that asks a simple question:
What happens when we reward people not for gaming the system, but for sharing their truth?
Our mission is clear:
To reward creators, not manipulators.
To burn BPC tokens, not hoard them.
To return value to the network — not extract it.
We believe in Blurt — not because it is perfect,
But because it dares to be free.
To remove the downvote button is not a small thing.
It is a revolution.
A refusal to allow power to be weaponized by the few against the many.
No more silent sabotage.
No more financial punishment for honesty.
On Blurt, your voice does not lose value because someone feels threatened by it.
And let us be clear:
We have only ever shared what the blockchain already knew.
The transactions.
The patterns.
The truth.
We did not fabricate.
We did not exaggerate.
We revealed — and that, more than anything, is why we were targeted.
Downvotes are not about quality.
They are about control.
Whales farming rewards on Hive are not “supporting the ecosystem.”
They are gaming it — and everyone sees it.
Even those who won’t say it.
How can the world take Hive seriously when its pulse is set not by passion, but by power?
When the loudest voices are not the most honest, but the most rewarded?
But here — in this moment — we dream.
Not foolishly.
But fiercely.
Imagine it:
Steem. Hive. Blurt.
Not as rivals.
Not as fragments.
But as allies.
A united front of decentralized expression.
One network, many voices.
One mission: freedom to create, freedom to speak, freedom to be.
Yes — it would require change.
Yes — some would have to go.
Those who profit from silence.
Those who fear transparency.
Those who confuse their privilege with merit.
But if we stood together — truly together —
We would not be a footnote.
We would be a force.
For now, it is a dream.
But dreams are the first code of revolution.
And who knows what the future holds?
We do not claim to have all the answers.
We only know this:
We will keep building.
Keep sharing.
Keep burning tokens, not bridges.
Keep standing with the people — not above them, not against them, but beside them.
Because in the end, it was never about coins.
It was about courage freedom truth.
And courage, like truth, cannot be downvoted.
The Bilpcoin Team.

I love how we used to call over unannounced. I don't know how we got in the habit of calling or texting first.
The kids will be alright. They'll seek out friendships , vintage style, especially at uni and as they get older. Teenagers are more difficult.
