Hello read fam! Saturday is about to end and so will July (or both probably ended already by the time I post this). It is now Sunday! July has ended and hello August! Would you believe it? Gosh. How was your July like?
So far I could say my July was a blast and you guys were part of it! Thank you guys for a laughter-filled July! My heart is full. No. This is not a month-end report. Lols.
Before going any further I would like to thank these people in the box below:
They are the awesomest people! And they have fantabolous stories and insights. Best click their pics and get on with reading their brains. I mean their thoughts and craft. Go!
It is finally a sunny morning and this time it looks like the sun finally won the tug of war with the rain clouds. I finally got to visit my mini monster garden and was chuffed to see them no longer drowning in rain water. They now have time to save themselves from root rot! Yay!
I was able to sneak a snip on their flower stalks with the dried buds to plant them again in the medium. I am looking forward to seeing those bloom soon. I hope the strong wind did not blow away the seeds in the buds. If ever it did, I hope some of them landed on the next pot at least.
While I muse at this cycle of these plants I find myself amazed at how sometimes similar that is to humans. We grow, we bloom, then we we wilt, we shed off some and fall, we take root and then we rise again.
This pandemic season, I had my share of growing, blooming wilting, shedding off and falling and then taking root again. I am pretty sure you have your own story as well. It most likely has happened even before the pandemic season and it will still be the cycle even after.
It is that process that landed me in this platform - noise and read. Who knew, right?
Wilt and Fall. As we carry on pushing back hang outs with the regular friends and coffee sessions to keep our families safe, even the introvert in me felt being cooped in too long is too much. I cut down on my sunset chasing because the areas I frequent in started becoming crowded when the quarantine measures loosened up. Even the solo coffee shop treat (yes I do a lot of things solo for recharge) is not in the books for now (but slowly it will happen I'm sure).
Root. Rise. Bloom Finding other things to do with the extra time specially when it is being spent mostly inside the house; joining in on the bitcoin craze and trying to learn; reading stuff in noise exploring and then connections started happening and then finding the community. Thankfully, a friend pointed me to noise. Next thing I know, I am posting more in this platform than in my other social media accounts.
It was June and July that I spent most time here in read. I created read account out of curiosity few months back before June and left it for a while. I really do not know what to do with it, anyway. And I spent most time in noise. It is easier to throw in a lot of my nonsense there. I re-explored read come June and it was a very exciting experience. It was (and still is) fun. Reading people's written thoughts, the stories in their heads, their experiences and the comment section. Haha.
The generosity of everyone is unquestionable! This community is very much accepting, warm and encouraging.
For that, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone and sending out virtual hugs with that. I know earning is part of why we are here but boy I am enjoying your virtual company and for that I am staying and keeping on. You guys made earning wild and fun!
And this is the part where I mention my very very very loving sponsors. . .
To @TengoLoTodo @Eylz2021 @Bloghound @ARTicLEE @LykeLyca @Just1dood @Sequoia you are an encouragement!
I am amazed at how this virtual encounter was weaved and I am mighty glad it is part of God's thoughts. You guys are Godsent!

God-brewed virtual friendships.. who knew?
I just took a lot of photos of our flowers yesterday. Then our helper mentioned that there were no seeds in our zinnia. So when I read what ypu said about the wind blowing the seeds out of them, I instantly thought about what our helper said. I hope that they went to a good spot because if it will grow in the middle of our lawn, we are in big trouble. 😔
My July was ok. I was a little productive and I try to be twice more this month. I am also happy with the virtual friends that I have gotten close through this platform.
