A school friend's invite sparked her spirits
Anything for friendship....
It was her friend's son's 17th birthday and after a long time, she got an opportunity to meet several of her school friends at the same place. Unlike me, she does not go often and meet her friends, so this was kind of a rare opportunity for which she seemed to be quite excited. It's not easy for ladies to step out of home, especially when you have two growing kids, so when she told about the function, I instantly said YES, even though it was a working day. It's very much necessary for the chief of house to de-congest herself, and this was much more than that - specially when you are meeting your old friends from more than two decades.
The Destiny - once we reached the venue, we felt like truly have arrived at the Destiny for a nice evening, for which she was pretty well prepared, planning beforehand.
I didn't know that she brought this beautiful saree for this occasion - was a free spark for me after all :)
The venue inside was a grand place, with a big cake for the birthday boy.
And now look at the excitement between her friends to meet after a very long time.
They were in no mood to eat and I had to interrupt them - come on, there are some very nice food we must also enjoy.
These are some big celebrities from her friend's family, so a photo was well deserved.
Even though her friend and her husband was quite occupied, I followed up with them and made sure to have a family pic - these memoirs are some gold moments that will remind us about the nice time - small but powerful little happiness. And now let me present you the food - it felt like a lavish treat for a birthday.
Starters were being served outside and everything was so tasty.
Gupchup or Panipuri always seems to be a special weakness of ladies - it must have been a lady in some previous birth :)
You should have told us to come early in the evening - how do we eat so many items !!
We let her spend more time with her friends without bothering about us - you do that at home, now we can manage on our own.
The only missing piece was .........can you fill in the blank ?
Always eyes on me....are you eating well ?
Her friend joining us for a photo.
The main course was equally grand, but we could manage to eat only few items - mutton and roti.
However full you feel, there is always space for ice cream, isn't it ?
The Menu - kids enjoyed the evening with some real great food.
The finishing touch - paan makes it complete.
Blessings to the couple for arranging such a grand party.

Your wife is looking absolutely stunning in this yellow sari. Hope you enjoyed well.!
We enjoyed a lot - the food was amazing.
Hermosa fiesta, la comida se ve exquisita , por todo lo alto está celebración , pero lo más bonito estar con la familia , saludos desde Venezuela amigo de la India .
Indeed. The emotional labor of managing a household is mostly overlooked in our society. Having a supportive husband like you always makes someone confident, and when a lady is confident at home, she looks comfortable in a get-together.
Moreover, in today's busy life and responsibilities, rejuvenation through friendship and attending such functions is a necessity.
Many many happy returns of the day to the Birthday Boy. You have captured some amazing, mesmerizing shots—high quality, sharp, neat, and clean. Awesome!
Thank you.

Oh man what a birthday party that was! Impressive! It looks more a wedding party for all the things there are and so much food
Yes, it was actually even more for a wedding party :)
Good morning, dear friend @sanjeevm
What a wonderful birthday party! What wonderful memories!
It's great that your wife attended the celebration and reunited with old friends.
Beautiful photographs! I appreciate you sharing this wonderful moment with us.
Have a wonderful start to the week!
Wow, all of that just for a birthday party? That is pretty impressive. I'm glad your wife was able to go and enjoy herself!
Yes, it was truly impressive, probably the most grand birthday celebration we have ever seen.
For sure! It looks bigger than some weddings I have been to. Definitely bigger than my wedding was!
Hello Mr. @sanjeevm
What a beautiful celebration you attended, and how great that your wife was reunited with her friends.
What a beautiful family you have, my congratulations.
Beautiful celebration.
A lovely celebration filled with warmth, friendship, and joyful memories, it’s beautiful to see how a simple gathering, can turn into something so meaningful especially when it brings together old friends, family, and laughter moments like these truly are priceless.
I actually use to love these types of gathering because trust me, it usually ignite positive memories
Honestly, the food looks delicious, and well, that's true. We should always take advantage of it to de-stress and come back with more energy to fulfill our obligations at home. Sharing time with friends is always a special moment.
There's always room for ice cream, and it seems like everyone enjoyed the party, which was excellent. So, all that's left is to wish the birthday boy or girl a very happy birthday and invite them to their 18th birthday.

It's just like that, friends are special, and then when they have children, they love their children even more, and life is short, so in the same way, we should spend time together and laugh and be happy.
The party looks regale. Beautiful decorations and delicious foods.
An excellent party, my friend, the food was a 10. The birthday boy's parents really excelled in organizing such a party. In addition, they shared time with his family and wife. At the same time, he gets out of the routine of home and reunites with his childhood friends.
Y'all having fun. It's so fancy, and what's more important is the association with friends.
I have fallen in love with the atmosphere and the vibe readers/commenters are getting from these pictures.
Make new friends, but keep the old..
one is silver and the other gold. 😉🎶🎶🎶👍
what a lovely gathering. was that a Batman cake??
This is true… ladies rarely meet their old friends after become mother … this is great to have such time
Who Are The Leaders of Hive?
Hive, a blockchain born of rebellion against centralization, now stands at a crossroads. Its ethos—decentralized, community-driven, and free—is shadowed by a corrosive reality: the unchecked power of entities like @themarkymark and @buildawhale, whose coordinated downvotes and acrimonious tactics have driven creators to despair. This is not governance; it is a tyranny of silence.
The Illusion of Leadership
Hive has no crowned sovereign. Its “leaders” are stewards: developers refining code, witnesses securing consensus, and communities shaping culture. Yet power, as history teaches, consolidates in vacuums. When accounts with vast Hive Power (HP) weaponize downvotes to stifle dissent, they erode the very democracy Hive was built to protect. This is not leadership—it is oligarchy masquerading as order.
The Exodus and the Alternative
Creators flee. Talented voices, weary of punitive curation, migrate to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes are absent and dialogue thrives. Blurt’s rise will be no accident; its simplicity—a sanctuary from Hive’s toxicity—highlights a fatal flaw in our ecosystem. A single change here could tip the scales. Imagine Blurt embraced by investors, listed on centralized exchanges, and fortified by liquidity. It needs only a catalyst.
A Plea for Unity—and Action
We cannot wait. Each downvoted post is a fracture in Hive’s foundation. To stem the exodus, we demand:
Bilpcoin’s Pledge
The Bilpcoin team stands with Hive. We will:
The Hour Is Now
Hive’s promise—a haven for free expression—hangs in the balance. Will we cling to infighting, or rise as a community? The tools for change are ours: blockchain transparency, collective will, and the courage to demand better.
Join us. Audit wallets. Question power. Post fearlessly. Together, we can reclaim Hive’s soul—or watch its light dim as Blurt rises.
The choice is ours. Let it be written in history that we chose wisely.
Hive leadership crisis, decentralized governance reform, Blurt vs Hive, Bilpcoin transparency, blockchain accountability, downvote ethics.
#HiveTransparency #CommunityOverCensorship
@themarkymark @buildawhale & Co
You wield downvotes like a weapon, striking indiscriminately at whoever displeases you, whenever it suits your whim. And why? Why do you call people names as though their humanity is secondary to your ego? Is this how you justify your behavior—to diminish others so they might seem less worthy of fairness? You claim disdain for AI on Hive, yet your inner circle freely employs it without consequence. No downvotes for them, only for those outside your charmed circle. Tell us, why are you so selective in whom you punish and whom you protect?

@themarkymark & Co.,
We are being completely honest here, and you know it. The transactions don’t lie—you cannot escape this, no matter who you bring in to back you up. It won’t work. You’ve already exposed many of those close to you, so let’s be clear: WE ARE NOT TROLLING YOU. WE ARE SIMPLY SHARING THE TRUTH. And the Bilpcoin team is far from stupid. Calling us names changes nothing—it only fuels our determination to work harder.
IT’S OVER.
SPEAK UP. MAKE NOISE. TAKE A STAND.
Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention:
The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay:
These practices do not just harm individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are not only unethical but outright destructive.

The blockchain data tells the story plainly and clearly. We are not fabricating these claims; we are merely presenting what is already visible for all to see. As we’ve repeatedly urged @themarkymark & Co—the solution is simple: STOP.
SO PLEASE STOP. It’s time to do what’s right for Hive and its community. Why cling to practices that harm others? Power down, step away, and let Hive thrive as it was meant to. You bring nothing positive to this ecosystem.
THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING—THIS COULD HAPPEN TO YOU.
PLEASE STOP.
@themarkymark, Can You Explain Why the Bilpcoin Team’s Accounts Are on Your Blacklist?
@themarkymark We understand you’re a fan of data—so are we. After all, data is king, and when it comes to blockchain, transactions don’t lie and can’t be changed.
