#MeAt20 - Life was so much different then

in meat20 •  5 years ago 

I have been nominated by @sanjeevm for this share, I found it very interesting to pick it up and make my own version. I had to dig into my drawers and remove all the old pics. Till almost 2010 most of the photographs I have in hard copy, they are so many that I have never had the chance to convert them into a soft copy. And I am a person who cherish printed pictures more then the soft copies. When I was searching for these pictures I almost spent 2 hours, because I got into looking at all the other albums also.

Life was so so different then, I am not saying good or bad, because the life I have right now is equally good to what I had then also. It's just the different phases of life. The one important thing at that time was, Life was a little slow and peaceful, there were no mobile phones, use of computer was less, so we spent more time in other ways, that was catching up with friends and spending more outdoor time.

#MeAt20, I had just finished my graduation and got my first job, also simultaneously I was doing my Secretarial training course. Life was just beginning, so much excitement. You know the feeling of that first job, becoming independent, setting your foot on the next phase of life, and at the same time I was then going around with my hubby, so it was all too much excitement, fiancee, new job, like a new life. I got married at 21, so again it was at that time the marriage preparation had also started, so too much happening in that year.

I was enjoying going through the albums, it felt so nostalgic, taking a look at the past, so many special moments captured, such a long way we have come and so many good memories created.
Let me share some of them with you.

I remember this picture was clicked on a ship. My uncle worked at the dockyard and whenever there was a big cargo ship that would come, they would have a party. He would take all of us for the party and it use to be good fun.

This is with my favorite one with my favorite man. My dad, the most important person of my life. He was a very jovial person and he would always be very happy when my friends would come over home. During vacation, a lot of my friends would come over home to spend a few days all of us together, they would stay for a week. Dad would cook for all of us whatever we wanted and he would be at our service ensuring we had good fun. My parents had separated when I was 5 and I was raised up by my dad. He was everything for me. He had dedicated his whole life just for me and my sister, doing every possible thing to give us a good life. I miss him so much.
This picture was with my school friends, when they had all come over to my place for a vacation.

Though Mom did not stay with us, we did often meet her. I used to miss her, so dad would make it a point that we got chance to be with her also. I look very similar to my Mom.

With my elder sister, she also had a boyfriend then, and they got married later. 4 of us used to do a lot of outings.

I got engaged at 20, life was just starting. Good feelings.

Thank you :-)

The 20's were the good 'ole days. I agree.

Yes, when we look back it brings a smile on our face :-)

you look great, dear! So naive, so nice! but now you look even better, you've got real femine beauty and charm;)
I miss steem so much! and I miss you too! How are you? There is so much news here, right?
I heard something about hiv. OMG what is it, and what should I do now?I am lost:( Ypu post here and there too? Or the post appears in both platforms after publishing? And how can I find you and Linda and familyprotection there?
so many questions, sorry:(

Hey my dear, I have been thinking of you. Hope everything is going well at your end. Your long absence I was wondering if there is any issue.
Regarding Hive and Steem, A hardfork happened on steem when Steemit's share was sold to Justin Sun (of Tron) after that Justin was all on to centralization and he also manipulated with the witnesses and freezed some Steem accounts. A lot of unrest was created and hence the new Hive platform was created.
When Hive was created exactly it was replicated with all the earnings and settings of Steem. The password also is same to start with, you can change if you wish to.
A lot of steemians have quit on steem and now only on hive, but still many are continuing here also.
I normally put up my content on both but need to do it separately.
You can just use the relevant tags and you will have your followers as usual. I did not face any challenge on that part, rather I see a little better earning on Hive now, since many of my voters have quit on Steem, but still I continue with both. Hive price for now is double to Steem.
I feel you should put up your content on both and maximize your earnings.
Much Love to you my dear and stay safe, we are in crazy times and it really takes us down.
Take care and stay safe 💖

dear Nainaz! Thank you soso much for your worrying and remembering me!
I have not the best times now, so many troubles and worries... Even don't know what happens...this year is so hard just for me, or maybe it's hard in general, and we must just be tolerant..
I wanna try Hive too, you're right, thank you so much for a detailed answer and explanations!
but still need your help;) https://signup.hive.io/ here there're so many variants for signing up. which one to choose?
have familyprotection and Linda moved there too?
