The Welcome Wagon Weekly Digest - First Edition - about Happiness and Love
Welcome to the First Edition of the Welcome Wagon Weekly Digest!
What is the WWWD?
Some days ago, I had the idea to create a weekly curation with a selection of posts written by recruits, graduates, peers and supporters of the Welcome Wagon. I spoke to @dreemsteem about my idea and she said, that there was actually somebody asking before if there is a Welcome Wagon Digest. Wow, I had no idea. However, my antenna seems to have picked up the waves.
What is the Welcome Wagon?
A quote by @dreemsteem, one of the founders of @welcomewagon: „I can proudly say that our recruits have been HIGHLY recognized for their material, Curies, interviews, mentions, curation features, author showcases, etc. So you probably have seen some of their work without even realizing that they were part of the Welcome Wagon.“
Here is a detailed explanation of this amazing project and how the Welcome Wagon supports Steemians, that are new to the community. As being a graduate myself, I can truly say, that the @welcomewagon was one of the most important gifts, life presented to me.
From now on the WWWD will be published each Wednesday. Every edition has a special theme, this weeks theme is: „Happiness and Love“.
This weeks edition:
◽️ @maquemali: The Love of a Mother
◽️ @eveningart: About the Love of the Little Things in Life
◽️ @twodorks: A happy Graduation
◽️ @xcountytravelers: Selfies with Strangers
◽️ @zen-art: Chemicals in Charge of your Happiness
◽️ @shadowspub: Considering Obligations
◽️ @dreemsteem: Last for Lovers

Hi @anutu-
This is such a fabulous post- amazing idea and so beautifully put together. This'll certainly make my Wednesday every week, to see your digest and binge read on WW posts!
Thank you so much for including my post in your first digest, I'm really touched.
And this has to be one of the most visually stunning posts I've seen. Gorgeous... for this reason... and for all the work and being amazing... you receive my first ever Evie!

Dear @eveningart,
I thank you for your always so noble support. I am so happy to have received your first Evie! Thank you right from my heart. I am a very visual person and wanted so dearly to create something different and with a special design, that values all the amazing work of our WW family members.
Your post had to be a part of the first edition, definitely. I love your story about the little things, that are forgotten so often, so so much. Such a great post.
xx
You got that so perfectly spot on with your stunning design! Thank you, I'm so touched you liked my post. E x
Ohhh yeahhh ....
I love your writing and all your art so so much!!!! <3
xx
woo hooooooo!!!!!! the first Evie!!!!!!!!!! :) I love it!!!!
Haha thanks Dreemie! That was the day i did my skydive 😁
This theme takes on a bit of a different meaning after watching the We Happy Few music video by JT Music like, a dozen times this past week.
I need to see this now to get the reference LOL
Really? Never heard of it :) I am more the old school analog music guy :) Yeahh, vintage is my stuff ...
We have a digest!!! wooo hooo!!! This looks amazing @anutu! Good job! 💚
Yeahhhh, there it is! It's a beginning :) So happy to hear your feedback!
Of course I came to visit as @dreemsteem... hehehe but not officially as @welcomewagon! I just realized this today!
I've resteemed this on our blog.... @anutu - You are simply a treasure to have in our family. Your eye for design on this blog was GORGEOUS - but more than that - you captured some special pieces here that really express who we are at WW :) I'm so looking forward to this feature every week!!!! I love that you constantly have ideas swirling around in that beautiful mind of yours!
Extremely well done!!!!
Hihi, yes ...
there is always creative energy in me :) lolololololololololololol
Thank you so much for resteeming @welcomewagon and a special hug for your most lovely words @dreemsteem!!! <3

nice work @anutu and thank you for the shout out.
Your article was so valuable to me. I remember me in similar situations ... had to learn the hard way what is good for me and what not ... I love freedom so much, so much, but at the same time don't want to hurt anybody. Obligations drive me crazy sometimes ...
@anutu!!!!!!!!!! 😍😍
You never fail to bring so much happiness to each of us at the WW Family!!
Truly you have the gift to bring out the best on everything. I think this is an awesome idea boosting what @welcomewagon is all about and what are the graduates are doing!! I love the idea too!! Please keep this up.. I for one would always look forward to your next WW Weekly Digest! This will somehow inspire and boost us more to keep making the best of what we do.
Hurayyyyyy! We are lucky to have you! 😍😙
PS.
Thank you for including me in your very first WW Weekly digest. I feel flattered! 😊

When I first had the idea, I thought somebody might have done this already before :) but then I figured out, that this was not the case :)
Oh no! You were the first actually!! So amazingly brilliant idea.. glad you did it! Only you could bring out it all out, you are made for this..

Amazing job! I really like your formatting style! Now that I know it can be done, I need to play with formatting. Thanks for the inspiration. Great job!
Ren
Hey, let's play together :) I am more a designer than formatting expert .... Ren, I am so so so happy, that you like it <3
I am good at websites (http://crosscoutytravelers.com), but still trying to figure out how all this works.
You are absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This came out looking BEAUTIFUL and professional and INCREDIBLE!
OF COURSE it did - YOU are the creator of this!!!!

I am so grateful, that you are here with us, here in our little family world <3
This is outstanding content!
I'm guessing about the quality of your ideas by the possibility to turn each of them into tradition or a brand.
This one is immense!
Yes, it definitely is outstanding content, you know why? Because of you all writing outstanding content!
I would love to see how the WWWD becomes some kind of curation tradition for the future ...
