Good evening from Romania, fellow HIVE users and dear readers outside of HIVE! For today's first special post here on my HIVE blog, I decided to write a bit about an important sign of maturity, more specifically to know when to stop from indulging into small pleasures.

We all like (or even love) and definitely need some small pleasures in this Earthly life, such as some sweets or pastry, juice, and other types of foods for gourmands out there. It is no secret that I am, to a certain extent, one as well. However, I learned very well in life to know when to stop from indulging <i>too much or excessively</i> into buying and consuming more sweets, juice (orange juice was my favourite, I confess), or my favourite foods. Why? Well, simply because I was damaging my stomach when eating too much of it and then I understood that this potentially was a cause for my ongoing gastritis.

Now don't get me wrong, it's not something bad to enjoy the small pleasures of Earthly life in terms of food and beverages every once in a while, on the contrary, but don't overdo it, don't exaggerate, and therefore learn to be moderate. You will thank you so much in the long run for mastering this ability of balancing your nutrition well. Eat more vegetables and fruits instead of buying even the most natural-labeled juice in the supermarkets out there. Because no matter how naturally-advertised a juice might be, it still has additives. Every once in a while, more and more rarely I mean, one is good.

But the best thing you can do for yourself is to buy fruits and make our own natural juice with a blender! Mhm, delicious and healthy, trust me! Last but not least, a simple ice cream is still good and I'll always go for the vanilla-flavoured ones!

Thank you so much for stopping by, for your precious time, and for reading my post. All the best and God bless you!

Many blessings your way, all the best once again, much health, take care, stay safe, and, just as in the words of Ringo Starr, peace and love your way! Great peace and a lot of love your way, I might add! Have an excellent and most peaceful day along with your close/dear ones! Namaste and great peace your way once again! 😊🙏✌️☮️

Also, please don't forget to keep praying for Ukraine and its people! Much love, blessings, and peace to Ukraine and the Ukrainians as well! May the war stop very soon! 💛💙🇺🇦
