This is my response to "[WE100] Weekend-Engagement Friday blog prompts" You can also join the challenge here.
It's remarkable to see the growth of The Weekend Contests and huge respect and thanks to @galenkp for this remarkable landmark. It gets better going forward. Thank you for being a blessing to us all. Congratulations on the 100th. This new concept works better rather than bombarding the comment section, each person gets to make an extended post while creating more awareness that way.
Topic:
In 500 words or less explain what you like, or don't like, about the #weekend-engagement blog prompts concept I have devised and present each week.
I have more than 500 words to say but for the sake of this prompt, I would keep it to 500 words or less. I am kicking myself for not finding this amazing community sooner but I am glad I found it later. Better late than never, right? I've been too impressed with this amazing community that I have dragged a lot of people to keep joining the weekend prompts and I do personally send them the links so they can participate every Friday. It's one of the amazing things I look forward to doing over the weekend.
The Weekend community made my weekend better and is making my weekend better with the fun and excitement that comes with it which is why I love the blog prompts concept. It's not just about the upvotes but also the recognition and engagements with fellow Hivers. I even share the content on other platforms hoping that there are Hivers there that didn't know and would follow the link to join.
A lot of people struggle with what to write and every writer, I am sure knows that coming up with what to write is not an easy task especially when you write every day like me. The prompts make it so easy for us to come up with what to write and I've asked the Big Dog every time how he comes up with these prompts because it's never an easy thing to do.
I love everything about the blog prompts because it gives me something to write about. It enhances my creativity and allows my imagination to soar. The prompts are always challenging even when they look easy. I love things that work my imagination and this is what these blog prompts give me. There is no Friday that I don't pace around while trying to stretch my imagination when the blog prompts comes in.
I love the engagements and the people I've connected with through it especially through my comment section too. I love the fact that it made me know the man behind the prompt through his posts because I always thought to myself, for him to be able to come up with these exciting topics, I really want to know what his posts look like and even with busy days, I try to go through his posts. This is the beauty of the blog prompts because it's not just an avenue to earn but also an avenue to connect with others.
It's like killing two birds with one stone but in this case, multiple stones as we follow the blog prompts, we earn, gain exposure, connect with others, promote Hive better, have topics to post on and then work on our imaginations. I know a lot of people who use some of the topics here to make posts on other sites and that's to tell us that those blog prompts are amazing and one of the many reasons why I love them.
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Thank you so much, sir.
Okay, let me write mine and give accolades to the one who brought me to this weekend's challenge prompt word. You have always been consistent with it and I love that about you. KP.
Thank you so much, KP. This means a lot. Don't get me emotional right now hahaha.

Thanks for your kind words mate, it's good to have you here and I'm grateful you keep coming back each week.
It's such an honour sir. What you are doing for us is remarkable and 100 is a testament to how much of yourself you have given to us all. We can never repay that.
Cheers to another 100 Sir.
Another 100?
Oh bugger it, why not! ✅
Yaaaaaay! Yessssss!
I'm new around here however have posted in this community a couple of times, around the #weekend-engagement concept, and have enjoyed the opportunity. I think engagement, being involved and sharing a little also, is important and whilst I don't always have the time to do so, I do what I can.
I like your post a lot, it is uplifting and also shows humility and respect.
I deeply appreciate your words. It's good to have you here as well. Yes, busy schedules would always kick in and I love the fact that you still manage to do the little you can. Every little bit helps.
Something is better than nothing and so I try. Thank you for responding.
Becca 💗
I love that. ❤️
It's good fun I agree and the G-Dog is a trend setter for sure.
Your posts are always enjoyable Ola. Thanks for taking part.
Have a good one 🙂
Your words delight me. Thank you so much, my friend. Cheers to another 100 to come.
Have a blessed weekend.
Absolutely! It's always a pleasure to chat with you and the other Weekenders. Enjoy it
I'm honoured 🤗🤗🤗
You spoke my mind. It helps to not only know what to write on but helps with engagement and also improving ourselves as we stretch that imaginative mind.
I absolutely agree with that.
Ha! For a second there, I thought those words on your paper – the one's in the first pic – were written in some foreign language or something. Lol
I love the flow and sincerity in this post. I see now, how much the weekend-engagement means to a lot to many people just not myself. Oh, and the fact that people actually use blog prompts to make content outside of Hive, shows just how awesome G-dog is doing with the engagement concept.
Hahahaha I intentionally added that so it would look like I was speaking in an unknown language hahaha.
Yes, G-Dog is amazing...the way he comes up with the creative ideas would always blow anyone's mind. We are blessed to have him.
Yup, I thought so. It caught my attention though. Initially, I thought it was inverted because of the camera, so you can imagine how obliviously dumb I looked, rotating my phone over and over like I was using a steering wheel.
Indeed, we are. As he is the Oracle, I am sure no mere mortal can understand how he deciphers into choosing these topics lol.
Cheers brother!
Hahahaha. Thank you so much.
It's good to see you again, today by chance of life I got your post and it brought a few smiles on my face, there is nothing better in life than living these moments even if they are for a short time. I love your smile, never fail to put it in your posts.
Talking about the commitment of the week and its organizer I can say that I really liked the idea or the concept that it brings. It is interesting to get a place where we can tell what we lived and felt in those two days.
Now I'm going to see what I can write, but 500 words for me are too few, hehehe.
Thank you so much, my friend. It's always nice to read from you. I smiled all through reading this as well.
Hahaha yes, 500 is fewer than what we used to write but it's fun to suppress so many words for the sake of this contest. I can't wait to read yours.
Hi @olawalium you are absolutely right. The submissions for these weekly contests are sources of inspiration and connect us with many people in the community in different countries, very nice and with different points of view about a specific topic. It is a pleasure to read posts like yours. Best of luck and onward.
Thank you so much and I am glad to read this. Have a blessed week ahead.

Hi @olawalium I agree in many aspects if not all with you. Really the weekend engagement space in great, refreshing and fun. I arrived recently and I don't plan to retire from the community 😂😂
Hahahaha don't go anywhere. This is home.
This is how I feel
Thank you for being part of it 😊
I'm happy. Thank you.
