Finally Joining the Dolphinarium - Thank-you for Letting me in!

nathen007 in #dolphin • last year

It's only taken just shy of six years!

But that's OK. I've enjoyed almost every step of the way, but like every path, there are ups and downs, twists and turns.

I'm always going to be in awe of my class of 2017/18 who are right out there in the 100Ks but every one of them deserve to be where they are now and I'm very proud of them.

On Hive we have the ability to plough our own furrows and take as much time as we choose, there is nothing to stop anyone on Hive getting whatever they so desire from the platform, whether that be huge HP tallies or a little additional income to improve their lot in life, or both!

Hive gives us choices

Hive means a million different things to a million different people and that's its big advantage over any other form of social media, as well as occasionally being its achilles heel!

Hive isn't all about rewards. It isn't about blogging per se. It isn't even about (sorry, not sorry, libertarians) decentralisation or censorship resistance.

Hive is about people, humanity if you will.

Hive brings people together from across the world, without geo-political or economic barrier and dumps them all in one big cauldron of human stew, and as in 'real' life, there are those who get along, those don't. There are sociable souls and loners, extroverts and introverts, and they're all welcome.

Hive is about authenticity

Anyway, the point of the post was simply to say thank-you to everyone. Thank-you for the support, the votes, the engagement and interaction, not forgetting Dan and Ned who put all this shooting match together, and gave us it for free.

I have drunk free beer because two blokes I have never, and will never meet nor know, created a blockchain based social media platform, and gave it to the world. How amazing is that?

That's it for now. I'm currently too busy with work and proper adulting type stuff to post much at the moment but I'll be back soon.

Have a wonderful weekend and best wishes to all.

Life isn't about the hustle. It's about the humanity, humility and gratitude

@nathen007 (really called Martin!)

Heading for 10K before my birthday next April!...Maybe ;-)

I'm glad we met.

Me too. Thank you for giving me new perspectives. What's 10k amongst friends? Numbers are just relative, anyway ;-)

Congratulations, I remember my version, engrossed with the process that the end just came as a surprise. It's good to see people who've been around here long get that status, shows reinvestment in the community. Thank you for sticking around :>

nathen007 last year

Thank you @adamada. I stick around because there are lovely people who provide me with interesting and often thought provoking posts to entertain, inform and educate me....don't quit anytime soon, will you mate?

Hope you're having a great week :-)

Congrats on the milestone!

Hive is about people, humanity if you will.

So very true. I just left the HiveBeeCon meet up in Krakow tonight, and am still buzzing with the excitement of the night.

nathen007 last year

Thank you, I've just bookmarked some of the reports to read up later and it looked like a fantastic event with an even better guest list. Glad you had a great time :-)

How dare you?!

Congrats and sending love, N.

Stay authentically you. Because you're awesome. #truestory

nathen007 last year

Thank you. We all are. Our uniqueness strengths and faults all make us amazing.

Keep fighting :-)

nickydee last year

Sadly I can't seem to help myself :|

I have, however, learned to pace myself a liddle better. Took a couple of days off to ground after the weekend news. It's gorgeous out here, you know. Wouldn't want to miss summer!

And thanks, N :D <3

p.s. you keep fighting too.

Or perhaps we should change this to "resisting" ?

Less scary for people...

Also...R3sist!!! 😈

Welcome to the club 🥳🎉

Congratulations on becoming a dolphin 🐬 up to your next goal!
Would be cool if you make 10k before your birthday 🎂
Have a fantastic weekend further.

nathen007 last year

@littlebee4 you're an inspiration, lady! Sandisk send their best wishes because trying to keep up with your appetite for taking photos, sales of memory cards in Thailand have doubled!

Keeping doing what you do, you're always going to be way ahead :-)

Best wishes and have a great week.

beeber last year

Congrats 🙂
Yes never ever have I met so many likeminded people all around the world as within the 2 years being on hive. Not sure what makes the difference, maybe its magic? Or is it that hive doesnt come with easy click and join without caring, wich attracts another kind of people.

nathen007 last year

Thank you and I think that's a very astute point about Hive being difficult and thus the 'quality' is maintained. Things that have genuine worth are never easy!

Keep going, and I hope you're having the best week you can :-)

Congratulations, I also started out in late 2017 and to be very honest, hive is a different type of opportunity on it's own, a gem that unites and enlightens. Welcome to dolphinhood, many more success ahead

Thank-you mate. The future of humanity should be built around platforms of respectful free speech and discourse.
