One Step at a Time
Have you ever wondered how you could think of starting a business that requires mental and physical exhaustion?
I do. Haha
If you have read my intro blog, you'll know I used to teach in preschool for four years. Here's the link if you want to check it out.
(Just a typical unmarried eldest daughter story. https://peakd.com/eldestdaughter/@jellyvine/jellyvine-new-blogger-in-town)
When I was teaching, I'm just active half a day then I'll just lay down on bed after lunch since I'm too tired to move some more.
So weak.
If you do have kids you'll understand it's too tiring to play with them, and how much more teaching them in repetition.
Don't get me wrong, I do love them and I really enjoy time spent with them.
In this photo, I was a co-adviser with @tsuko but I haven't finished the school year and I entered a Global Missions Training course offered by Goducate.
I really came to their graduation to congratulate them while I was on training so please no question about my affection for kids. Haha
(I will share about my Goducate days on another blog.☺️)
Fast forward, I graduated the training after 6 months and yet, I didn't worked on what I had trained for-community works, the specialty I took. I went to Taguig, BGC to be exact to accompany my aunt who was in sensitive pregnancy that time.
City life wasn't for me, that's one thing I'm so sure of. I was so bored out of my wits since I really enjoy driving around in my motorbike. I didn't have it in Taguig-the freedom and peace of mind. I can't seem to live comfortably when I keep thinking of individuals here in province.
I went home after four months and that's when @Hallmarkey2023 opened the Chero Store. It's kind of smooth that I just naturally got employed and even got weekends to do my community/church works.
This picture was during the store's third anniversary.
My family wasn't necessarily happy when I did quit teaching but they will never understand what I'm going through and just keep going myself to what I think I could do.
In @hallmarkey2023's existence, I found an ideal friend, employer and a sister-in-Christ. We share the same values, outlooks and specially the priority in life. We share the same dream.
ONE STEP AT A TIME.
Only last year, when I started raising my own swine with her gentle push. I earned already; yes, with Sweeney's first parity piglets to pay for my previous loan in a cooperative (I used the money to buy layering chickens my Mom tended to and just gave up).
At the moment, going to have two breeders with Brenda in the picture. I'm getting impatient actually to add some more but one step at a time. I don't have enough money yet and knowledge with livestock business ain't sufficient too.
I'm staying put.
I keep dreaming and praying and doing what needs to be done at the moment.
Things I could do now is planting shrubs and any plants that is potential food for my soon to be added animals.
I need to have more bananas for trunks could be native pigs meals and even turkey's with rice bran. I need to replant more taro for it's swine's favorite even if it's high breed one. I need to have more ipil-ipil as I talked about how Brenda loves it.
Even this pineapple is potential food of native pigs that I wish to acquire. Any fruit could be their meal.
How I wish I could plant some corn too for native chickens.
That's Merida, going to keep her for a long time and she laid 12 eggs and hopefully it will successfully hatch soon.
I don't have native pigs, turkey, ducks yet but again and again, one step at a time.
💌Thank you so much for reading this far and yes, this is kind of outlet where I pour out my aspirations.☺️
My younger sister might join this platform soon and she is much of a writer than I am since she's really into writing novels. How I wish I could just absorb everything I have to learn about the platform right away. Haha I wanna teach her myself.
Anyway, one step at a time.
"Patience is virtue."
All photos are mine.☺️
Grateful for reblogs, upvotes, HP delegations, and to all curators.
(Yes,I've learned these words.haha)

Thank you and indeed, we took the road less taken but it's worth it.
Just after reading this, I wonder how will my life turns out if I'm already in the field of teaching? Sa teaching internship pa nga lang po namin, kinakabahan na po ako eh. huhu
You can do it Girl. Learn to live with courage, by this I mean, you're afraid but you do it anyway.☺️
Hahaha..pushh!! Hinay hinay lang as long as you feel that you are in the right direction with God's guidance you will get there!

I love that mantra... "One step at a time." Yes keepbit slow and steady. Things will eventually fall into place.
Yeah. Mantra. Wow. You have a word for it. Grateful for this avenue wherein I'll be able to tell myself things haha it's sort of collecting thoughts and sorting them in priority levels.
I'm not a fan of kids to be honest but I do love teaching them. Mine's special needs so they really require loads of patience, understanding, and a massive heart. Sometimes I lose them too but It does not take me long to find them again. 😀
You go, do YOU!
Btw, grabe napapa wow ako sa tyaga mo sa farm. 😊
!PIZZA
Humans are so sensitive and thus they shouldn't be exposed to me on daily basis 😁 kaya farm nlg.

@chichi18(4/5) tipped @jellyvine
Yehey!! Thank you
hehehe good for you for learning those important words!!! I love your vision!
I think I already tagged these people - but I really want to tag them again to come to this post to see your heart! hahaha I think they will love you like I already do!
@wrestlingdesires @samsmith1971 - isn't she great! hahaha I just love her!!! love her smile and her energy and her dreams!
oh by the way - I saw your other post where you were feeding the cats rice - hahahaha i didn't know they would eat that!!! LOLOL
I'd love to know more about your dreams of farming! What is the next step for you? To buy a male pig to breed with Sweeney? How much would that cost?
Also - I"m happy that you have a friend and partner who shares your dreams - that is SO important in life!!!
Hahahahaha
Those cats aren't high breed and all their lives, they live here, in rice-eating country hahaha
And next project with hog-related business is to buy a native race- it's easier to raise them and less sensitive to sickness.
And yes, friendship and business partnership is the greatest combo one could have.
So you are going to need to buy a boy native piggie? hahahaha
is that what Sweeney is? a female native?
Ah no. Sweeney is a mixed Petrine and Duroc race, not on top breed but good enough. She's reproducing via Artificial Insemination. There's an AI services here in our place.
And I'll buy a mixed/meztiso hogs,planning to have 1 male and 2 females for a faster production. I'll put them there on the farm, far from residential area. They'll be eating rice bran with leafy vegetables and spoiled fruits.
I had a friend who raised pigs in New Zealand! hehehe
she really loved it - but the male was so big and so dangerous! his tusks were really really powerful! they have incredible jaws that can crush human bone to powder!!! wow!
so you need 3 pigs... one male and 2 female! that's cool! i think that's smart to have 2 females for that quicker production for sure!
are they expensive? how long will it take you to save for them?
They're so much cheaper than high breeds but it is worth my more than a month wage haha well, I'm pretty much hopeful.☺️
Do they have websites where you purchase them? or just person to person?
I need to purchase them in person. I already mentioned it to one of the church member where I volunteered on weekends and she said yes, she'll let me buy them as soon as they'll be weaned off. Funny coz they're really aren't born yet.😂
awwwwwwww you're already buying the babies as embryos! hahahaha when will they be born!
i'm sure they're going to be so so cute!
I'll never forget to document it haha
One reason why I should not have a boar, a male pig that's high breed for they're too dangerous, I'm just a thin lady who wants to be a successful farmer haha
ahhhh so the native pigs won't be so dangerous?
They will be but they're a lot smaller and so, I can deal with them myself.😂 That's arrogance now hahaha
hahahahaha pride comes before a fall LOL
Also, will you do me a favor? Many of your pictures have your stamp on them - but would you just add "All pictures are mine" at the bottom of your post. I'm going to share your post with some other friends on the DreemPort site, and the guidelines there ask that you indicate the source of all your images :)
If you can just add that - that would be great! :)
Thank you for this. Already added the words in all of my posts.☺️
And thank you for liking my personality. I find it weird but as it's rare but I'm grateful.
I also am weird and rare :)
seems we found one another hahahaha
Waah. Can you please give me a link of your intro post? I wanna read. You have published so many blogs already. Gonna read them but it will take some time haha
hahahaha my intro post wasn't really anything about me.
It was a fictional story meant to make people intrigued LOL because that seemed more interesting to me.
And I dont think you'll ever catch up to reading all my blogs LOLOL there are too many hahaha I've been here since 2016 lol
you can just read something recent from me hahaha that will be better
Maybe this is more interesting... ( I don't know) lol
Your fingerprints are all over me
or... the fiction
Never, not ever. Part 1
More than ever. Part 2
You're so amazing writing this Your fingerprints are all over me. I love how you "weave" ideas and made a superb conclusion. I'll know where to go if I wanna hangout here in PeakD.💗🤍
hahaha i actually sent you the peakd link - but I wrote it in ecency
I usually use Ecency to write all of my posts - but sometimes when I open my blog - I open it in Peakd. hahaha
but you know that it's all the same blog - just a different way to view it. but same content on the same blockchain. Just viewing it from different "windows"
Kinda like if I called you on the phone, and I used AT&T or decided to call you using T-Mobile instead. same message, same phone, just different service to deliver it hahahaa
Wow! Unconsciously, you answered my inner questions about this, difference between ecency, peakD,hiveBlog. I find it funny I don't know T-Mobile and AT&T but I get the idea.🙈
yes heheh
go look here
https://ecency.com/hive-141359/@jellyvine/one-step-at-a-time
and then go look here
https://peakd.com/hive-141359/@jellyvine/one-step-at-a-time
Same content - just seeing it from a different frontend site :)
It doesn't matter which you reply to - it all writes to the same core blockchain. and then is displayed wherever you ask it to be displayed. If you want to view it in Ecency - you access the blog through Ecency.
If you are on a Peakd link - then just change the peakd.com to ecency.com - and you'll see it update to Ecency hahaha
Wow. That's so simple explanation to seems a mystery question. Thank you. I'll tell someone today, about this. The Christian culture that what have been a blessing to you must be passed on is just too hard to neglect.😁 I'll know who to ask now haha especially with wallet.😂
hahahahaha yes - there are lots of people here that can help - even if i'm not around hahaha
i'll show you where to go when you need it LOL
Patience is the greatest virtue and I am glad you are taking it all... One step at a time. It is beautiful to see.
Also, I can see the love you have for the kids shining in you and you have your reasons to quit.
I waltzed in through #dreemport!

You are most welcome!

Thank you!
Sometimes I wake up feeling very overwhelmed and confused because I do not even know exactly what I want to do. I have been a teacher too before I moved on to pursue a bachelor's degree in English Education so I can totally relate to all you've written. Also like you, I've tried my hands on many skills ranging from planting to baking, teaching, dancing and currently I'm on writing fictions, I get so worn out sometimes because I have to manage learning to advance in writing with maintaining good grades as an undergraduate student but then, like you said, "one step at a time".😌
I hope we get it all figured out. And don't worry about navigating your way around Hive, it's a process. Very soon you'll look back and laugh about all the things you never knew that you would have known in future. Well-done friend.
Your friend from Dreemport.❤️
You're so sweet. Indeed,life is always a seeking journey and enjoying it while taking each path.Thank you for reaching out, being a friend. Cheers to more things to discover and do in the future.💛

Good luck on all your endeavours and welcome to the Hive ecosystem :)

Hi @takhar .
Did you make this comment for Bounty participation.
Make sure to use the tag in order to be awarded
Hello @amberkashif .
Yes, I did with this one too. I apologise for not putting the tag here too! Putting it there now.
Will make sure not to forget when participating in future bounty participations.
Actually, the tag is the only way tk distinguish between the participation and non participation comments.
I am awarding you now. Hope you won't forget using the tag next time
Right. Thank you!
I will not forget using the tag next time.
👍
Okay...
This is a lovely post 😂, seems you already have a lot of friends on here as well.
You already have the right mindset for livestock business as it can go very bad very fast 😂 (talking from experience)
I hear pigs can eat as much as everything so, if the banana doesnt work out, no fret.
Just saw your post from #dreemport
You're right, I'm so amazed I met lots of warm hivers in short period of time. And yes, I must have the right mindset to dive in or else, I might get drowned in the process.🤭
@seki1 you have been awarded with 10 Dreem Tokens for participating in Dreemport’s Bounty.
I understand what you are saying, my sister and I started this year with something similar to yours, it is difficult when there is not much capital. i hope you do well.
Indeed and of course the risk and the hope are what we should consider to start in everything ☺️
Hi @carolinacardoza
Did you make this comment for participation in Dreemport bounty?
Because you didn’t use amy tag or state anything about Dreemport, I am confused.
Hello friend, yes I did it from dreemport but I was not aware of the tag, sorry. of course I would like the reward. :)
aw you taught little kids. That's so lovely... but yeah if farming is what drives your passion then go for it! I shall be sure to read anything of yours that @dreemsteem shares in Dreemport... I am another dreemer after all 🤗 You sound like you have a really clear vision for your life. I think you'll do well! !ALIVE

I am still teaching kids, and adults too in not-so-remote areas. Building relationships with them and hearing their concerns and help if it's within my capacity. Mostly, all I give are encouragement and positive outlooks to navigate through life.
Aw love this 💗Sounds like you have the best of both worlds at the moment. Long may it last. Teaching is something that was always an option for me although when I went to Uni all those years ago, I was considering University lecturing rather than teaching in schools. Now the thought of teaching and nurturing younger kids in Primary school appeals to me somewhat. Maybe an option one day as a teaching assistant. i don't think I could bring myself to study a whole new career again. I've already done it a couple of times hehe. Have an awesome day, Jellyvine !LUV

You're right!! I just feel like I don't want to get bogged down in books and lectures again, you know... so yeah... but I am an eternal student, I know that... hehe... sigh (and thank you for visiting my blog - I appreciate it! I'm glad you found some pieces of interest to you).

Teaching a child is not easy not to talk to 20 pupils or more in a class. You have done well and I won't blame you for quitting the teaching job.
I love your courage in attempting other skills.

That's the best thing in life honestly.
Atimes, it's Just so cool that we just do the right thing we need to do Infront of us, just do that and leave the rest.
We are often lost in actions most times but then it's always good not to push it... One step at a time, finish this and get to this.
Hopefully, life in the future smiles at us and we get to say all these were our stories.

There are so much to say here. I do love kids but i dont like to have then around as i cant deal with their disturbance. I hope i didnt offend you. also those kids are cute and I love the native nature. I also have chickens and turkey in my compound but no duck...

Hello there. Thank you so much for dropping by. Yes, at times, I don't like kids' chatters but I can always retreat haha I'm glad I don't have one, if I miss them, I'll borrow from friends and if I'm tired, I'll just return them haha

haha, now we sound alike
@fashtioluwa you have been awarded with 10 Dreem Tokens for participating in Dreemport’s Bounty.
I like country life although I have not had the opportunity to live it to the full, only when I was very young and lived in the land of my birth. Maybe if I can afford it, I'd go somewhere out of the way to enjoy that wonderful lifestyle.
I only wish that you succeed in what you propose and achieve everything you want. I loved the photos, they are all beautiful. Visiting from #Dreemport.
Hi. Yes, it's not easy to be in this kind of lifestyle but well, healthy will never be easy.

Praying and doing what needs to be done is a very essential part of humanity. Too sad most people don't really understand this aspect of life and they think that the can get all they want through praying without inputting any works.

I totally understand how being around kids for a certain amount of time can be totally draining. Coupled with the fact that not all kids learn at the same pace, hence, the repetition.
I like that you use the mantra "one step at a time". There honestly isn't any rush in life. I hope you eventually get all the things you wish for dear.
Ps: It's great to have you on the Blockchain and I'm sure your sister would love it here too :)

You are moving no matter how slow your steps are, it's way better than being stagnant and not doing anything.
