Thanks for your valid and well-thought-out comment. (Not that your comments are ever not that.) I can't disagree with your thoughts on this matter, and yes I think people come here for friendship, some anyway.

If we met each other on the street, would we have become friends? I cannot answer that, but, here, you have time to get to know a person, without all the social restrictions that may apply.

I liked this bit a lot. I guess I was trying to allude to this scenario when I was describing myself above, I'm not everyone's cup of tea. I wonder if those I engage with here, or who secretly have thoughts and opinions on/of me, would even bother to speak with me on the street, let alone get to know me. We'll never know I guess.

That is certainly an interesting post, Galen. I love Hive for this little piece of the world it has given me. So many wonderful people and personalities.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I also feel Hive has value far greater than the actual token; to you for sure and also to me Swigles. Can a price be put on friendship and connection? probably not.
