Hello Bees!
Happy Friday and Happy weekend to you all.
I can't believe I am submitting this post now after reading all the amazing entries. I earlier promised I was going to submit my entry on the 17th of January, but after reading so many entries already, I couldn't help but suddenly became eager to submit mine.
You know its one thing to realize the help people render to you but it is another thing to appreciate them for the help they render to you even for the slightest little thing they did for you
so without wasting much of your time, let's see those people I am extending my gratitude to.
The very first person on my list is none other than ME, MYSELF, and I lol. Are you surprised? well, don't be. While reading other entries, I noticed they kept talking about and appreciating the people that introduced or brought them to Hive, those who encouraged and pushed them down here. So it wouldn't be out of place to appreciate myself, for pushing, encouraging, and bringing myself down here. Yes you heard me right, I brought myself here even though I heard about Hive from a few persons but the decision to be here was solely on me and for that, thank you @zanoz for finding Hive deem fit to bring yourself to be a part of this community.
I came here all myself to do what best I know how to do, with the zeal, the energy, and everything but before I knew it, I was put on a hold by Hive, It, like they said HEY YOUNG GIRL calm down, will you? By now you know where I am heading to and you can imagine the frustration of being limited to a certain activity. While I was still casting out my frustration, a savior came along, and to that savior I first extent my heart of gratitude;
@Starstrings01
I lack words to describe him and I wouldn't mind telling the story of how he helped me over and over again. And to even think I just noticed his display name GIFTED HANDS he is sure gifted I must say even though I don't know the story behind that name lol.
Yes, Strings is the first person on my list I want to pour my gratitude to. He lent me a helping hand when I was in die need of one. And not only did he do that to just me but he has been doing that to almost every newbie that joins Hive. Strings lend me 100 Hp without any doubts, trusting that I would do my best. I am here to remind him that I won't let him down lol, thank you so much for helping this fish lol.
@brittandjosie
Then came brittandjosie. When I saw her long comment and warm welcome I was wowed and I had to join the #theterminal server as quickly as possible. She enlightened me a little about Hive, how it works and invited me to their discord channel for more guidance. There, she told me a few things I needed to know at that moment, and from that server is where I met the next person I am going to mention. Thank you so much @brittandjosie for such an awesome and warm welcome and the guidance.
@thekittygirl
Have you seen her around before? Some of you probably have, while some haven't but if you do then let it be known to you that you just met a goddess lol. Yes, she is one of the reasons I blogged with pleasure during my first week here. Little did I know she was kind and generous. She guided me and taught me most of the things I needed to know about my account, resource credits, and how to manage it so that I won't run out of it again. She also advised me to check put the hive FAQ to learn more about hive and how it works. And after the conversation we had, she lend me an extra 100HP, I couldn't help but leap for joy. I won't ever forget her kindness, not in a hurry, thank you so much @thekittygirl, I hope I haven't let you down.
@discoveringarni
I call her wonder lady. I bumped into her post, it was a letter to herself in 2019 and since then, I have been following her up, reading, and replying to her comments and I couldn't help but notice that she is always tagged or mentioned in some of the posts I usually go through. She was nice and very friendly the first time I spoke with her through comments, she didn't mind at all that I was still very much new to the platform. She encouraged me in every way she could even though she knew it would be hard for me as a newbie. That never stopped her from reaching out every now and then and I was intentional about looking out for her. So today I wanna call this lady's attention and thank her for all the encouragement and for opening wide her hands to welcome a new fish.
@tripode
By now we already have heard a lot about this lady that keeps filling us with a lot of energy and positive vibes. Yes, I met her here but we interacted on the discord server, where I got to know a little about her. She also took some time out of her busy schedule to explain a few things I needed to know about hive. She is one person I admire too because of all the things I have heard about her. I even joked about wanting to be like her on Hive when I grow up hahaha, that was supposed to be a secret but I admire her zeal and hard work a lot. Thanks tripode for noticing this BEE and stopping by to help.
@ybanezkim26
I already mentioned in one of my posts that he inspires me when it comes to photography. I love his shots and it's more like he is my Photography muse hehehe. His photographs are mesmerizing, his display image alone should tell you more about his works. I just can't deny the fact that most times I want my shots to be like his lol.
He has been there to tell me one or two things about photography and why and what makes his shots as amazing as I thought they are and I have been slowly applying them, though sometimes, I feel I overdo some lol. That is what happens when you strive for perfection. Thank you ybanezkim26
@whatamidoing
Lo and behold, the cross-culture guy hehehe. I must say, I will never forget how I leaped for joy when I got a notification that @whatamidoing followed me hehehe. well, I am just that happy whenever someone follows me, and receiving a follow from him in just my few days here meant so much to me so I couldn't help but just rejoice over it.
He always there to render all the help needed. I found him on Hive Language and Culture server.
Thank you @whatamidoing your follow up meant a lot to me :)
@trangbaby
I met trangbaby some days ago, and I can tell you how interactive she is. she spoke with me as if we have known each other even before now. I don't know how she knows me but she already gave a very strong recommendation about me and I believe this is why I had a chance of winning in the contest she recommended me for. She was also the one who invited me to #weekendengagement organized by @galenkp
I am very much glad she did and I will forever remain grateful to her. Thanks, trangbaby!
@melbourneswest
I stumbled over his post about 250 HP delegation contest. I didn't know if I was eligible to participate, so I messaged him through a comment to ask if I was eligible to participate and guess what, he said yes that I was. I didn't wait too long, I already submitted my entry. He had so many reasons to have rejected me or chose other people as winners but surprisingly I was chosen, even at the time which I already had 200 HP. He delegated an extra 250 HP to me. I couldn't believe my eyes, I was just so happy and very grateful. Thank you once again melbourneswest.
@livinguktaiwan
I was excited when I first read a post from livinguktaiwan. It was Hive Pud Guessing Contest. And after reading how much Hive Power he had which was mouthwatering, I decided to join the guessing game, though he left a hint to his first post for those who wanted to guess right, I read the post and came back to submit my guessed answer. I was so happy to be among the winners and I can't wait for the next guessing contest. Thank you livinguktaiwan.
@ubani1
I wouldn't fail to mention Ubani. He was there when I was a little frustrated and needed urgent help. He recommended someone to me and encouraged me to take a bold step and approach the person. I did that even after being scared and it did work out well for me. I was so glad and thankful that I got the push from him to approach the person and today I am enjoying the benefits from that recommendation. Thank you Ubani, I won't ever forget your help.
And with that, I bring my Hive Appreciation to a close. I am so grateful for the organizers of this great initiative, for giving us all the privilege and opportunity to openly display our gratitude towards those that have made our stay on Hive worthwhile. Thank you all Team Members.
Say Hi to @zanoz
