Ourpick Reading Suggestions for January 5th

OurPick encouragement program is part of the @Liotes ecosystem, where quality posts are curated. Authors are encouraged to continue creating content, adding value to various communities, and contributing to Hive in general.

Occasionally, we will select a couple of outstanding posts that we find particularly interesting and suggest them for your further reading... We hope it will help authors as an additional promotional tool... We support creators with our upvotes in Hive, but also in other tribe tokens! These Hive-Engine tribes add extra value to the entire ecosystem, helping authors and curators follow their niches and dreams...

Life Lately: Growth, Service, and Unexpected Joy. by @xanreo

Happy New Year! I like what you wrote there, and I truly believe that everyone has a positive side inside themselves... The truth is that, as you said, we decide whether we will allow the positive side to shine from within ourselves, or we will let the negativity overwhelm us... and not just overwhelm, but also spread it to others. If we spread positive vibes, the Universe will send the same vibes back to us!!
Sharing positivity and good deeds with others, especially children, can bring numerous benefits to both them and you. Keep doing it, and I have no doubts you will multiply the positive effect on your surroundings!

🎵 Celebrating the 300th Hive Open Mic Week with 600 Hive Prize Giveaways by @hiveopenmic

WOW! HiveOpenMic has been running for almost 300 weeks!! It's probably one of the longest-running initiatives on HIVE!
Let's try to promote this anniversary by sharing with other Hivians! Those rewards are awesome, and they should motivate and inspire people to join, be creative, and share their music skills with others!
Good luck to all participants!!!

Admiring the golden light, and struggling in the negative temperatures by @namiks

The cold often blocks the desire to leave the house, or at least it happens to many people, or they take refuge in cafes or public places, but it is true that the light that we see in your photographs is wonderful, a special light like magic and gold that seems to touch everything but gently and the reflection that it causes with the snow is beautiful.
I am very happy that it is a productive winter, it is to see beauty at every step one takes and your pictures are very beautiful especially the one of the trees with the snow. There are few people in the streets but you knew how to take advantage of the moment and you had the perspective to see that light.

A trip I made to the village: Traditions, Transport Drama, and Family Warmth by @madilyn02

It looks like the whole trip to the marketplace was an adventure! Changed so many means of transportation, carrying huge bags with shopping goods, but luckily, you arrived back home safe and sound!
I suppose you will stay with your family for the next few days too and enjoy the calmness of a village... I know I would do that in your place! It's nice to have an adventure occasionally, but not too stressful and not too often... 😂

🌊 H I V E O P E N D A Y S '26 | OUR ISLAND ADVENTURE 🌐 by @buzzparty

I'm not a big fan of boat trips in the sea 😃, but if we have nice weather and calm water, it could be fun... Never visited Tabarca, but I heard some good "reviews" about it... That, combined with a group of awesome Hivians, makes the fun granted!!!

Hive openmic week 300. Original song. I see only His goodness by adaezeinchrist by @adaezeinchrist

I'm very happy to hear you sing your original song, and so full of good vibes. I think we are both going through very difficult times in our countries, so singing praise is a great way to help connect with calm and touch the souls of those who are going through a bad time. You are the first participant of week 300, thank you for celebrating it with us 🙏🏽 I also send you my virtual New Year's hug 🫂
