One last message ✈️

Greetings friends of Hive and dear community of weekend experiences ✨.

This week has been somewhat difficult, nevertheless, I took some space for this nice community that every weekend brings us interesting topics.

Normally I don't like to talk about death, what I would do or how I would like it to be because death is something so uncertain, we don't know what day it will be or how it will be. To talk about it is to remember that one day it will come and that scares me a little.

I'm afraid of dying, because, "what would become of my baby without its mother?", that's the main fear I associate with death.

Seeing what the context is like and knowing that at least I have a chance to tell someone something made me want to write about it. And we have here in detail the context:

"You're on a plane about to crash (and you will die) but you have time to send a single text message - what is it and who are you sending it to?"

I would send that last text to my partner and say this:

"Thank you for the good things you have given me all this time, for the wonderful daughter we have. I want you to take good care of her, to give her lots of love, to play with her, to help her with her homework at school, that she can share with my family, and above all that you are the best daddy for her. Tell her that mommy loves her since the first day she knew of her existence, tell her always so she doesn't forget about me. I love you both"

Tears came to my eyes as I wrote this, and it's a little short. These topics are quite nostalgic and make you see in the depths of yourself, how much you want and wish to live to not get to say these last words, but to live them, to be the one who can fulfill those wishes that I put there.

There are many special people I thought of, my mother, my grandmother, my brothers, to say in a single message, in a moment like this, so many things I would like to say to each one of them, what I feel for them, makes me feel again that need to want to be alive.

Life is a gift, to be able to be with those we love every day, to share with them a conversation, a meal, a moment... that is what life gives you, those moments that will remain in our hearts as the greatest treasure and when we are no longer with them, to know that life was a beautiful gift.

Death is always a scary things, but it cant be avoided as we will all end up like that in the end. But if it's so sudden, and too brutal, isn't that more scary. Like we are not ready, wait, wait, pause! If omly we can do that no. Or maybe, can we just choose how we all die, but thats impossible, lol (。ŏ﹏ŏ) aigoooo.

Anyways, such a sweet message. Its hard to pick this topic, I don't know what to say especially if I have lot of thing I want to say.

Hi! If I could choose my death I think it would be more difficult because there is always something new to do, if I say when I'm old I might have grandchildren and I will want to see them....
If you could choose, would you?
I understand that it is difficult to say something, something similar happens to me when it is the funeral of a person, to say anything is extremely difficult for me.

You have a point, i guess it still depend on the person. As for me, I really want to choose hoe I will die lol.

Yeah it can be difficult, that's normal, to feel that way I mean.

It's a message that even made me cry, thinking about that situation is complicated and as you mention nostalgic.

No matter how short the message is, it is the right one.

Thank you @samantha.asami ❤️

Note: you forgot to put the community....

Hello! These topics are like sad movies, it is inevitable to cry. Thank you for reading it.

About the publication, if I forgot, it's the first time it happens to me :(

Can this be solved? It never happened to me...

I asked a friend who has some time with Hive and he told me that cross-publishing was the solution. It would have been much better to be able to edit and place the right community, I tried and it didn't give me an option (I guess there is an explanation why this can't be done).

I don't know but you can ask Galen if something can be done, he should know better than anyone.

It hadn't occurred to me, but yes, he might know something about it. I'll leave a comment here.
Thanks 🤗

Imagine I don't even know how to cross-publish, but it's better to ask those who know. I'm sure he'll have an answer

Hello @Galenkp ! I wanted to participate in the weekend engagement and finishing the post I forgot to place the community and made the post. I realized after a few seconds but I couldn't turn back. As a solution I placed the cross-posting because when I was looking for edit I didn't see an option to select the community. I wanted to ask you if in these cases there is any other way to correct the error, or only through cross-posting?

There's no way to reverse as cross-post as far as I know. I don't like the cross-posting feature and so do not permit it in my communities and have muted the cross-post you placed into the weekend experiences community. It didn't make me happy to do so, however I have to uphold the standards I set and to be fair to everyone they must apply to everyone.

The only thing I can suggest is to check the post, each element of it including the tags, the community selected, the content and layout and ensure you're happy with it before publishing it. That way, there's less chance of it being made in error.

Relax, I understand that as part of the regulation that is wrong. I will be more attentive in my future posts. And how sad that there is no way to reverse being able to select a community after posting without choosing one, that the only option is cross-posting.

Relax?

What makes you think I'm not relaxed? What an odd thing to say.

In Spanish I wanted to say that there is no problem, I put "tranquilo" tranquilo and it was translated "relajado" / relaxed.

Ah ok, that makes a lot more sense.
