Loving Hive Introducing Hive to Friends.jpg

Hola, hivers! πŸ‘‹

I have been quite busy these past few days as I transition into a new workplace and new kind of job opportunity as well, so a lot has been going on. I'm guilty of not as active as I once was and not as engaging. I apologize.

So what's your life update, I hear you ask. (My sense of hearing is pretty strong even when you're miles away from me lol) Last week I scheduled a meeting with some friends in order to discuss Hive. These are friends and siblings of my good friend/ex-co-teacher @charisse.craves, as they haven't stopped being curious about Hive since I briefly shared it when I attended Cha's bridal shower and wedding.

This meeting has been rescheduled a couple of times since I was pretty preoccupied with a lot of things that needed to be done for my new job. It was a great thing that last Friday, I finished with my orientation early so I was able to free up my schedule that afternoon.

What happened during the meeting, I know you're meaning to ask this. I basically walked them through the basics of Hive, like the concept of the following: Hive power, voting mana, resource credits, Hive Backed Dollars, etcetera. I discussed how to post a blog and upvote posts in the blockchain. I emphasized the importance of engagement and helping other authors succeed as much as they want to have their own successes. Hive is all about community and making meaningful and impacting relationships among its people, so it is vital to be genuine and honest since your blog is a direct representation of yourself. I stressed the importance of creating original content in blogging and being very critical and looking out for red flags of plagiarism, as this is a crucial clear way of adding value to Hive, a goal that all members of the blockchain share.

I concluded the short meeting with a testimony of how my life was impacted since I joined Hive. One of the best things that happened to me in the year 2021 was meeting authentic, thoughtful, kind, caring and loving people who are part of the ever-growing Hive Cebu Bloggers Community @hivecebubloggers 😊 I GAINED MORE FRIENDS! And these are not just friends, they are now a family. I love that we would arrange random eat-out sessions or coffee catch-ups and not just talk about Hive but talk about anything under the sun! How rare it is to find people who truly care via online, right? So I can say with utmost certainty that these people are blessings and angels-in-disguise, and have been answered prayers all along. Since the pandemic hit in 2020, one of my prayers was "a change in my routine and be able to meet and build friendships" and then came Hive with all these beautiful souls I was able to meet.

And no. I am not just saying or typing these words because it would "sound good" to you dear reader, but I am expressing myself through these words because they feel right and I am at a place wherein I am assured with my relationships with all of these people. I am bursting with gratitude because my life before Hive was different than now--and it is way, way better.

My experience in Hive, though it has some downs because it is not "up" all the time, has been nothing short of amazingly-awesome-wonderful and yeah I just made this word up as the dictionary is horribly limited. I always make sure to share this whenever I tell people about Hive because I firmly believe that more than the rewards you get, it is the happiness and support from people and the meaningful relationships that makes a person stay-- whether in the crypto blogging world, in business, and even in relationships. Money should be secondary and relationships, primary. What would your money do if you are the most miserable, empty and relationship-less person in the world, right? Yes, money might entertain and make you happy for a while but it will never suffice if you're looking at it for the long term. At the end of the day, you won't be defined by how much money you have in the bank or how much you can make, but you'd be defined by the relationships you keep as these show where your values are and what you hold important to you. Also, at the end of our life, we won't be taking our money, but we will be taking memories of how we shared our time and talent and money with the people we are surrounded with. I'm sorry I'm blabbing so I'm going to stop there.
