Hello, my lovely Hive Naija people. It’s another beautiful weekend, and we’re excited to have you here once again. A new weekend simply means another chance to buzz the Hive blockchain, connect with one another, and simply have fun. You'll also agree with me that there’s something special about bringing everyone together to gist, share opinions, and enjoy good vibes. That is exactly the reason we will continue to meet every weekend.

Sam's Hangout is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigerian brethren through active engagement on the blockchain. Beyond that, it is also centered towards the wellbeing of everyone who takes part in our weekend discussions and helps keep our discord running with their presence.
Note that this account was created to make the engagement more personal and official. You can check out the INTRODUCTION POST to learn more about our purpose and vision.
Please, do not forget to follow this account so you don’t miss out on future hangout posts and updates.
Our previous topic was ”BRUTAL HONESTY OR PEACEFUL LIES"

The responses were super amazing and we had over 25 comments filled with honest opinions, jokes, harmless banter, and fresh perspectives to learn from. The energy was truly contagious. Now, let’s see if we can beat our all-time high again this weekend, shall we? Please try to encourage responses by replying to one another. Remember, engagement is what makes this hangout special.


A topic will be dropped every Friday on this account. Do well to share your thoughts, respond to someone else’s opinion, and feel free to interrogate or add more context on it respectfully. If you don’t have anything new to add, simply reply to another comment in agreement. We encourage you to tag your friends to join the discussion so we can have a fuller house.
All interactions should happen in the comment section, because that’s where the real gist goes down.

This week's hangout starts immediately this post goes live and ends on Sunday by 11:59 pm.

Now to our discussion for this weekend! We will be discussing "FAMILY LOYALTY & PERSONAL PEACE”.
Family is often described as the only group of people that will never give up on us and likewise. We are taught to forgive, make sacrifices, and remain connected to each other because, at the end of the day, “blood is thicker than water.” But what happens when maintaining a family relationship repeatedly comes at the expense of your peace, boundaries, or emotional wellbeing?
Here's the question!
Or should there be a point where repeated hurt makes forgiveness without boundaries unhealthy? Give reasons for your answer.
If you had to choose between keeping the family bond and creating distance for your own mental health and peace, what would you go with and why?
If you have a topic you would like us to discuss in our future hangouts, please feel free to suggest it to us in the comment section and tag @sam.hangout to it.
Okay Let's Gist!!!

Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...

To make our hangout more interactive, we have decided to add two events to spice it up.
On Saturdays, we share our owanbe stories, party gists, and even pictures.
On Sundays, we reflect on the weekend and things we learnt so far, as well as share plans for the new week.
Don't forget to join us!!

There are no strict rules as regards this weekend hangout. Feel free to speak any Nigerian language you like, whether Igbo, Yoruba, pidgin, Efik, or others, as long as it can be understood.
With all that said, let the discussion begin...

Answer
It is no enough reason. Certain things when not rebuked becomes a habit and eventually becomes normal.
Forgiveness is good, but a repeated action poses a pattern that becomes a norm if not addressed. I can forgive someone twice or overlook their actions certain number of times, but when I notice a pattern, I'll quickly rebuke it with whatever means that seems best at the time.
Boundaries are important, it helps prevent you from certain reckless actions from people, whether connected by blood or not. Allowing every offense makes us vulnerable to so many disrespect, and that's where boundaries sets in
Hey friends 👋😺
I'll give here answer to second question
At first I'll prioritize my family but if the family is who wants to make me down like we always have some relative who really never want to see us happy and successful and always create a way to harm us not by physically by disturbing our peace of mind.
Then I'll go for my own peace of kiny, I'll not fight with them, I'll not forget what they did or say, I'll not easily forgive but I'll ghost them.
I'll become silent and act like i ignore them, i stopped talking and meeting with them because of my own peace of mind which is necessary for me
Sorry for being so selfish but in this entire world at least we should love ourselves 🥺♥️

They say that a good friend is better that a bad brother.
At a certain point in everybody's life you will get to know the value of peace without anybody teaching you that.
Irrespective of who you are, when you try to hurt me or ruine my peace, even as family, i will forgive you but set a clear boundary.
So forgiving and setting boundaries for the sake of your peace is very necessary to avoid somebody hurting you to the point that you cant recover again , and later cry had i know when it's too late.
Forgive and set boundaries.

Use your voice then. Sha speak up
I will always put my personal peace first, I understand the bond the family share and that we are one blood, but if being close will cost my peace of mind, I will give you a very long distance.
Family is really important, no doubt, and I love my family members, but I won't endure and tolerate constant disrespect, lies, manipulation, and many more negativity just to keep a family member close. Instead, I would love such a family member from a distance.
I have grown to understand that creating boundaries around people, doesn't mean you hate them, it simply means choosing and prioritizing your peace and mental health, sometimes distancing yourself from certain people is a way of even keeping the relationships healthier, I could still love a family member , and keep my space too. My well being really matter to me, I can still love and care for any family member threatening my peace and mental health from a distance.
