Hello,

Let's look at a few points:

# Curation

First of all, thank you to everyone who responded to the question in the previous post about curation by the Principality of Bastion.
It seems that everyone is of the same opinion, at least those who chose to respond.

I haven't finished thinking about this yet, and I'm still looking for a nice way to help the blockchain and active bloggers, encouraging them to help us in return, because so far that's often been the problem.
Any ideas are welcome to help with the overall discussion.

# Streams
I'm going to look for some titles we can play together to vary the activities a little. I've already talked to @letenebreux (alias Aalbat0r) about it.
I still love Elite Dangerous, but for some time now I've been playing alone and often talking to myself, to the point where I've gotten into the habit of playing my music to fill the gaps.

If there are games that you like and that you know I enjoy too, we can try to find schedules that appeal to several potential players.

I would like to remind you that the main reason for my streams is to socialize and play or chat with others.

This explains why I also stream on Splinterlands, as I manage to start a few discussions, like this morning with @ofgplays, whom I would like to thank again for his presence and open-mindedness.

# Principality of Bastion

We still have our NFTs and ECU to help finance the Principality, so I'm going to see if there's a way to use them for my artistic projects, to add another string to my bow.

But we will soon have to make some difficult decisions about the continuation of certain areas.
And here too, we will have to rethink the Principality as a whole if the returns continue to be “virtually” non-existent. 

March is fast approaching, and I am obliged to find solutions by this deadline. Persisting would cause me problems, even though I don't want to give up on this project, which is very close to my heart.
I will continue to fight on a political level, but I will limit regular expenses as much as possible, since my income will soon be severely impacted. In fact, an initial reduction of more than €100/month is already in effect.


# Basically
It seems that everything is slowing down, probably due to the change of season, but in my opinion also because of the political uncertainties that we are seeing all over the world.
Stay strong, everyone, and let's hope that things get better as soon as possible.

Bonjour,

Voyons quelques points :

# Curation

Déjà, merci à tous ceux qui ont répondu à la question du post précédent, concernant la curation réalisée par la Principauté du Bastion.
Il semblerait que tout le monde soit du même avis, du moins pour ceux qui ont choisi de répondre.

Je n'ai pas encore terminé ma réflexion à ce sujet, je continue à chercher une façon sympathique d'aider la blockchain et les blogueurs actifs, en les incitants à nous aider en retour, car jusqu'ici c'est souvent cela qui pose soucis.
Toute idée est bienvenue pour aider à la réflexion globale.

# Streams
Je vais chercher quelques titres que nous pourrons jouer ensemble pour un peu varier les activités, j'en ai déjà parlé à @letenebreux (Alias Aalbat0r).
J'aime toujours Elite Dangerous, mais depuis quelque temps je suis seul à jouer et souvent aussi à peu près seul à converser, au point qu j'ai pris l'habitude de jouer ma musique pour combler les blancs.

S'il y a des jeux que vous aimez et que vous savez que j'apprécie aussi, on peut tenter de trouver des planning qui plaisent à plusieurs joueurs potentiels.

Je rappelle que la raison première de l'existence de mes stream c'est de socialiser, et jouer ou discuter avec d'autres.

Ce qui explique que je fais également des streams sur Splinterlands, puisque j'arrive à lancer quelques discussions, comme ce matin avec @ofgplays que je remercie encore pour sa présence et son ouverture d'esprit.

# Principauté du Bastion

Nous avons toujours nos NFT et l'ECU, pour aider à financer la Principauté, je vais voir s'il  y a moyen de les utiliser pour mes projets artistiques, pour ajouter une corde en plus à l'arc.

Mais il faudra bientôt prendre des décisions difficiles pour le prolongement de certains domaines.
Et là aussi repenser la Principauté dans son ensemble si les retours continuent à être "quasiment" inexistants. 

Le mois de mars arrive à grands pas, et je suis dans l'obligation de trouver des solutions d'ici cette date butoir. Persister me poserait des soucis, même si je n'ai pas envie de lâcher ce projet qui me tient à coeur.
Je continuerai à me battre au niveau politique, mais en limitant les frais réguliers au maximum puisque mes revenus seront bientôt très fortement impactés. D'ailleurs une première diminution de plus de 100€/mois est déjà d'activité.


# En gros
Il semblerait que tout tourne au ralenti, probablement avec le changement de saison, mais selon moi aussi à cause des incertitudes politiques que l'on remarque un peu partout sur le globe.
Courage à tous, en espérant que tout aille mieux au plus vite.

*<P><div class="text-justify">Beneath the surface of an ordinary school day, I found myself watching something that felt extraordinary. My daughter and her classmates were asked to build a model of the plant cell, to trace its structures back to the miracle of photosynthesis, to connect that green and silent world with the air we breathe. I expected paper cutouts, maybe glue and glitter. What I saw instead was a group of children who suddenly carried themselves like young scientists, shoulders squared with curiosity, eyes lit by a kind of ownership that only comes when knowledge becomes discovery.</div></P>*

*<P><div class="text-justify">Curiosity does not beg for polish or perfection, it simply moves forward and takes shape where it can. Around my dining table I witnessed their stubborn attempts to understand mitochondria, chloroplasts, the vacuole, and the puzzle of energy itself. They argued over how to paint, where to place labels, how to explain each function in language that made sense. They laughed in the middle of mistakes, fixed them with new plans, and then went right back to work. I could almost feel my own patience being stretched and tested, not because of them, but because I realized they didn’t need me leading at all.</div></P>*


![IMG_20241103_151033500.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/chris-chris92/EqNHZABmMZb8Z3cihx6suKPukde6C1XSEXEgxd6UPgJMCtQYV6pY2qzU7YSsWKp8SYa.jpg)

*<P><div class="text-justify">Every so often I stepped in with a hand steadying the scissors or a quiet reminder of structure, but my role faded into the background. These children were steering, and my daughter especially seemed determined to set a tone of persistence. She asked questions I never asked at her age, not out of obligation but out of hunger. She wanted to know why the process worked, how energy from the sun could move through a leaf and arrive, somehow, at the rhythm of our lungs. There was an insistence in her voice, almost like she was claiming her own place inside the vast chain of life.</div></P>*

*<P><div class="text-justify">Gratitude welled up inside me as I realized the real experiment was not the model itself. It was my daughter evolving in front of me, showing that intelligence is not only about facts memorized but about character revealed. When she chose collaboration over impatience, when she asked her friends for their ideas instead of pushing her own, I saw her carry lessons that no textbook could teach. It was as if she were whispering to me, without words, that growth is not a straight line, that it bends and loops and finds its form in the company of others.</div></P>*

*<P><div class="text-justify">Nothing about this project was perfect in the way adults often demand. The model was lopsided, the paint uneven, the labels sometimes tilted. Yet the energy in that creation was alive, and I could feel it long after the brushes were put away. This is what pride feels like as a mother, not the applause at the end or the grade written on a paper, but the quiet certainty that my daughter is becoming herself in ways both visible and hidden. I look at the green curve of that handmade cell and I know I have witnessed a future unfolding, shaped by small hands that already carry the strength of their own light.</div></P>*

Motherhood

The Making of A Science Project From My Daughter

<div class="text-justify">
Hello Hivers, Good day!! How’s your day, hivers? I hope you are okay today hehehe.

![Cream Beige boho Background Instagram Post_20250824_115810_0000.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/manzoriza713/AK7zu2Apvd3ScLGDQipPTRUhVUt46rbkUmSYQ9EorHW6QP4kYP7EqLJCtty8Kui.png)

I simply wish to narrate my minor experience as a psychology student. Our teacher provided us with a project on infancy and babyhood. The assignment should involve interviewing the mothers and not only observing them, on the babies. We have to pose some interrogatives and even capture a picture as evidence to our assignment. Initially, I was a bit nervous as I was unsure whether it would be permitted by the mothers or not. However, I felt excited as well because it is new learning to me.

![IMG_20250827_143718.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/manzoriza713/23uFeHks3gtmeQer19JD9Qghc46k3hTp9wPhsYxaXErNHqZZ4twRoQCoSaBumCvqAzFFA.jpg)

First, I have visited Jelmi to receive an invitation to interview her and her baby. It understand, it got a smile, said. That pleased me so much and relieved me. Lastly I had my first project participant. I also then sent my friend, Apple a message asking whether she would allow me to see her baby. She also assented and gave me the go ahead. This is due to the fact that it is actually difficult to get mothers to provide the time to handle student projects. I was so grateful that I found one of those mothers.

![Cream Beige boho Background Instagram Post_20250827_170221_0000.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/manzoriza713/AKDjFPkEVEGENeTsqWcQCBVhY3sQHv4JFvV5AttUQgH3147tEtJhPgDdgEpR6gY.png)

Another youngest level nanay, whom I also encountered in the community, was discussing her apo (grandchild). She answered that Apple is not a Bancasan but will be taken to Barangay Tambongon. I came to understand that even in underdeveloped communities like ours, we know all the people and we talk stories by default. This minor experience helped me feel connected not only to fellow students but also to people around me.

It is not a project that simply focuses on grades. In my case, it is one of the contemplations on how learning also occurs in society. Babies are an asset and their development is worth seeing, yet, conversely, I was taught how families nurture and raise babies. I observed how much mothers can go out of their way to offer services to students like me since they are aware that we are studying.

I am particularly glad this was so. It makes me aware that psychology is not just in books, but real people too.

Thankyou hivers, For reading my blog hehehe I hope you enjoy reading and also reblog my blog God bless you hivers.
