As Hiveans we read different posts every day on Hive, we laugh, we cry, we cringe and all sorts of emotions run through us whenever we click on any author’s post to read. While there are so many interesting posts on Hive there are some posts that we find very difficult to forget as they will forever be in our hearts, Those kind of posts are not easy to come by.
Do you just read a post and something inside of you is stirred up? more like the author was talking to you or the words in the post create a vivid picture and you begin to see and feel everything the author felt and you can’t help but wonder how people get past painful experiences, how do people heal? how do their lives get back to normal? Having so many of these questions in your head you are forced to feel a certain way.
The moment I saw this challenge I knew the three memorable posts to share with you all.
These posts will forever be in my heart, these posts will forever leave a mark in my life, they will be a constant reminder of how strong and amazing women are and that they are way stronger than we can ever imagine or give them credit for.
The stories I am about to share are really sad, at first I contemplated if this post would be opening old wounds but on second thought I just thought to still put it out there. My sincere apologies to the authors of the posts if this makes you feel a certain way and also for the tags.
My first memorable post is @grindan’s Remembering my Daughter on her Birthday. This was one of the first posts I read when I newly joined Hive. While I was exploring the Hive Memorial Forest community I found this post.
This is a very sad birth story written by Grindan, I remember how I cried when I read it, I had so much to say to her via the comment section but I was worried it would open old wounds just the way I felt while coming up with this post.
The more I read the more I felt so sad for a young girl, how could someone go through all that pain to bring another life into this world just to lose her in the end? Grindan was so descriptive with her words that you could literally watch all the scenes in your head.
I think part of what made me feel this way was losing my mother during childbirth, so in my head, I was watching all the struggles my mother went through as I was still a baby when the sad incident occurred, but unlike Grindan's story, my kid brother is still alive.
Her story was enough for her to be tokophobic but she wasn't as she went on another journey to bring another life into this world and this time it was different. Grindan if you're reading this just so you know you are one strong woman and an inspiration for all mothers who have lost their babies.
My second memorable post is Share My World: Sweet Sacred Experience by @sjarvie5. All thanks to the three-post challenge that was held in this community I was able to stumble on this post by Sjarvie.
I have never seen anyone describe the death process as she did. It was sad to see how her mother passed away. Sjarvie walked us through the whole process and to think she had written this post a week after her mother's death shows how much of a strong woman she is.
I got to learn a lot from her story. I commend her bravery in penning down those words and this post is one of those lengthy posts that you just don't wanna stop reading as with every line you read you get curious about what happens next.
She talked so much about crossing the veil into the next and for the very first time in my life I did look at death differently, not that I want to die or anything but I did love how she and her family stayed by her mother’s side all through the process and how they handled everything.
The last on my list is A Mother’s Worry by @funshee. I am one of those Hiveans who love to read people’s personal stories more than anything else and for some reason, I enjoy reading women’s birth stories as I am able to take a peek into the lives of babies and their mummies.
Funshee shared her experience after the birth of her son. Three days after giving birth to her son they discovered he had severe Jaundice which the hospital she had her baby gave a wrong report about. In this post, we get to see how a first-time mum was worried sick for her baby’s life. After having a major surgery Funshee didn’t have enough time to rest as she was on and about trying to make sure her baby was fine.
I get down with a little fever and I know how tired and miserable I get but seeing this young mum after surgery trying all means to make her baby fine again was heartwarming. Reading her story I got to see the unconditional love of a mother and it was truly beautiful. This is one post that I won’t forget in a hurry.
The common factor among my three favorite posts is that these women were able to share such poignant stories with us on Hive, they didn’t shy away from it neither did they hold back, to me that’s bravery at its peak. I am happy I came across them, even though it’s been ages since I read them.
All images are mine.
Thanks for stopping by
Loads of Love🥰🥰
