If Sameness Was Meant - Day 177 - Daily Haiku - - 100% of SBDs Pledged To @rhondak's #tarc Dog Rescue - and The Tale Of The "Pet" Black Widow
This is my fourth post in a series where all SBDs rewarded, for the next several days, will be donated to @rhondak's #tarc dog rescue, with the hope that others will follow the example and show her some much needed love, and help feed and vet the many dogs under her care
The above photo, which I took in 2009 in a friend's kitchen, is of our dog Sprinkles, a Newfoundland mix weighing in between 85 to 90 pounds most of the time; with his best friend, Cindy, a 6-pound Pekingese. A study in diversity
@crescendoofpeace gives us a short haiku then tells a fun and lively story about Sprinkles and Cindy... an unlikely mismatched dog duo who are best friends.

My Son Grows Older Than 198/365
Our children are our main wealth. I am very glad that I understood this truth from the first months of my son's life. Thanks to my understanding of the value of children, paternity became for me the greatest wealth in the world, which I did not even dream of. In the photo below, you can see some moments of this endless wealth
Did you know @cranium has been recording every day of his son's last 198 days? Every single day he makes a post sharing how his son has grown. He plans on doing this for one full year. It will be interesting to see the little guy's physical changes over the course of one year. Ingenious idea!

Sooo... Running Hurts
I am not an athlete. Never have been, probably never will be. I've heard people speak of loving that feeling of the burn that comes with pushing your body to it's limits. I hate that feeling. Always have.
That being said, I am aware of the benefits of exercise, and would like to live a healthy life. My cardio has never been great, and I know I have messed up legs and no muscle anywhere
Oh BOY @caitycat may have bitten off more than she can... run! She is signed up for her first ever 10k race this coming October and she's started her “training”. See how her first practice run went in her post.

Ordinary Streets- Extraordinary Moments 7
In 2014 I went for a few weeks to New York, and since it was my second time in The Big City I wanted to dive a little deeper into Brooklyn instead of Manhattan. I walked a lot alongside the river, and quite near to the Brooklyn Bridge there's a famous market with vintage market stalls and such. Right outside you find a waterside where both locals and tourists gather to enjoy a drink and the breathtaking views on Manhattan and among others the Freedom Tower
Come for a walk down memory lane with @soyrosa as she shares a New York City photography adventure from a few years ago. She loves taking pictures... of people taking pictures. Read her post and you'll see what I mean.

Appreciating Your Precious Life Moments
I was enjoying myself watching this guy and that little girl playing with bubbles. Amazing reflections and colors from that big bubbles. I was not sure whether the guy was happy because his face was showing that. Of course, the girl was so happy and enjoying her bubble moments. I have observed that some people tend to choose not to be happy at any gifted moments. To me, happiness comes from your own actions and it's your choice that you wish to be happy at any moments
Seeing two children outside playing with bubbles and enjoying life has made @ainie.kashif stop and think about how she and others should step back and appreciate their own lives and people around them. Have you ever considered how much passes you by and you never even know it?
Important News:
Introducing Referral Bonuses!
Dear Qurites,
We know times are tough now and we all have to push a little bit harder. We came up with two programs that will help you earn some extra upvotes and visibility from Qurator, and will also help Qurator to reach more Steemians/your friends that need some extra help.
Write a post about Qurator.
Our long time members know how it all works. You have been with us through thick and thin.
Share your experience with your friends and followers. We would love to know how our members see Qurator and what they like (or don't) the most about the project.
Feel free to write in your own native language. We are open to all languages and have already translated our main Qurator post to several languages.
Well written posts will receive some extra upvote love from Qurator and a resteem. :) Feel free to drop your post link in our Daily Qurator comment section, so we don't miss it.
Invite a friend.
Do you know someone who is starting out? Or maybe someone who is posting great posts for a while but still need more exposure? Refer Qurator to your friend and after they get approved and become a member you will also receive a bonus 1SBD upvote on your most recent posts.
There are two ways to do it and this is how it works:
| 1 | You refer a friend to Qurator | You sponsor a membership to your friend |
| 2 | Your friend sends registration fee to Qurator and mentions your name in the memo: referred by @your_steemit_username | You send registration fee to @qurator with your the person's name in memo: @your_friends_username |
| 3 | Our team reviews the account | Our team reviews the account |
| 4 | Your friend is approved - you receive a 1SBD upvote | Your friend is approved - you receive 1SBD upvote |
Keep in mind that all registration rules still apply and all account will be reviewed by our team. You can read about content requirements in THIS post.
Note: Both programs are open to everyone, not only Qurator members.

Steemauto Curation Trail
 | The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. Steemauto guide and registration info |
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P
