My Not Very Early Introductory Post
Hi Everyone! First things first, my IRL name is Brave Alvaro, married with 1 son, I am 27 years old and I am from the Philippines, I have a passion in cooking and been a gamer since grade school. I actually go by the name @ivarbjorn in Hive/Splinterlands, this is actually my sons name and been using it as my screen name to show how much I love him. I will also try to highlight here how happy I am to find this blockchain and especially Splinterlands.
That's pretty much the basic personal information about me.
For this next segment I want you guys to meet my small yet very large family <3
I want you guys to meet my very beautiful wife and my son Ivar Bjorn, her name is Ailyn, a very good wife and a great mother to our son, I couldn't ask for more. We are happily married for 2 years now, but still like yesterday, we are looking forward for eternity <3 Ivar Bjorn is really the best thing that happened to the both of us. He was 8 weeks premature but he strived and fought to experience this beautiful life. He is the greatest blessings for me and everything I do is for him and his mom <3
This is my family, my father in the middle and the three woman are my sisters while the boys are my brothers, we have a brother not present on this photo though, we are 7 siblings and I am the 6th, or second youngest, you might be asking where is my mom, well she passed away when I was 15 years old. My father died last July and we are still grieving for that, but we are getting used to living without them and trying our best to show them that we can manage on our own so they can rest in peace on wherever they are right, I believe they are in good hands <3
This photo was taken on my fathers birthday, I am not on this photo because my wife was on labor when this happened, and this is the last birthday my father celebrated while he is still well, right after his birthday he got a heart attack the next morning. And been bed ridden for a year we took good care of him, until he gave up and surrendered to the lord last July. Tay, wherever you are just go on and rest in peace everyone is fine for us in here <3
I think that is enough for my personal life, it might bore you guys out <3
Now I will talk about why I am on Hive and Splinterlands, before I got to NFT games I did some research and the what really catch my attention was Splinterlands, because of low starting investment really. Then I found @clove71 on YouTube and then on Twitch, to be honest first I was there for the giveaways but I stayed because of the community, then the #nosleepgang got established, where people are going from one streamer to another for 24 hours, and that's what inspired me to stream on my own thanks to @cmmndrbawang and @rentaw03, @mhowii , @snyxnya, @tim.hendrix, @alvi0na, @raxxxx, @dzwaine, for supporting me first hand in my streaming Journey.
I had some down moments but I will be coming back much stronger, and for those who hates me I pray for your happiness <3 For everyone who supported me, thank you so much to all of you! I greatly appreciate it! I am grateful to you guys with all my life!
Little by Little we got exposed to Splinterlands and knew a lot of people who taught us a lot about the Hive Blockchain, we learned a lot about blogging and a lot of the Hive Blockchain token.
I have now also started playing @risingstargame, and doing some giveaways on my stream.
The community here is really great and we cannot find it anywhere in the world this is the best one by far, based on my experience.
Also I am now doing some manual curation of my own and thanks to @sgt-dan for delegating me HP so I can do what I love, and to @clove71 for upvoting my posts.
I try to upvote as many post as I can from the community to pay forward for everything I have received.
You will get this on your post when I upvoted your blogs <3 I hope you appreciate the little amount I could share to you!

Once again, thanks for your support!
An outstanding introductory post. I am very sorry to hear about your father's passing. My father passed in 1975 and I miss him to this day.
There is nothing more important than family. In my family we do not all get along and argue at times. When one of us is in need though, we all come to each others aid.
Thank you for sharing your family with us. I will see you on Twitch, Lord willing. Tara na!
If I might make a suggestion? I very seldom ever upvote a comment more than 4%. If you upvote comments at 100% you will deplete your HIVE power very quickly. My comment is surely not worth a 100% upvote. We all learn as we go. I did the same thing starting out. Did not work out well voting comments at 100%. Folks will understand. Not even whales vote comments at 100%. You can change your vote values.
Do what you like. Not trying to be bossy. Just trying to help with a little advice here and there. I am sure commenters appreciate a 100% upvote! 😀
Oh! Thank you for this Sarge, I might do this, yes actually I notice that it depletes my voting power faster. Let me explore even more on this <3 Again thank you for that Sarge your suggestions is always appreciated.
That is why I am here. To help where I can.
Yes, Sarge we always miss them and they will be forever in our hearts, but at some point we will be able to keep living without them.
I think it is the same for all Sarge, if someone is in need we are the first ones to come their aid, but yes arguments are pretty much normal in the family. (At some of the families)
Thank you for guiding/supporting me and the #nosleepgang on our hive blockchain journey Sarge! You are the man! We learn a lot from you!
See you on twitch!! Tara na!!
