What can I say? If I am to write an epistle, I don't think I will be done writing about Hive. You can take this as an exaggeration but that’s only because you can only speak from your experience and not others point of view.

When a farmer cherishes his hoe and cutlass as their lives depend on it. Little would a teacher whose value relies on their pen and book would know the importance of a hoe and cutlass. Whatever aspect of life faces you, that is what you can say about life.

I have been on Hive for years now, or should I say I have been blogging for over six years, and I haven’t gotten tired of it a single day. I never had the mindset of becoming a writer or a blogger, not to mention making vlogs. But there are times when you have to create passion around things rather than find passion everywhere.

Hive has been a home for me!

I have always said on my content time without number that the hive has been like a home for me. I was like a wandering bee who just found a hive to nest in. Ever since I found my home, I have felt the comfort and joy that comes from it.

I have met with friends who turned families here on Hive. The joy of getting to know and relate with people from different parts of the world is truly a connection I can't find elsewhere. I have friends I have met online for over five years now and never set my eyes on any of them to date but we are best of friends even compared to those I get to meet and know physically.

I am still on the moving boat and I believe so far Hive continues to grow, there is no stop to how far and how long I have to go on Hive! I will continue to be on hive. This is the “Hive!”

Hive as a lifesaver!

How much more do I have to appreciate Hive? All I can say is I am grateful. Hive has been a lifesaver. I was once a stranded and dependent soul. As a student what brought financial breakthrough for me was Hive. I could remember how my friends and roommates would wonder how I got to keep paying my bills, feed myself, get transportation, and also buy handouts without requesting backup from home.

Though they knew I had always been on my phone 24/7. I told them about blogging and a few joined while some didn't. With time when I started to understand Hive and navigated my way better, I was even the one sending things home. This has been a source of inspiration and joy for me. If not Hive, how would I have lived? This is the “Live!”

Hive as a Founder!

I never can tell what the title of being a self-employed worker could be all about. I couldn’t have believed I could walk in my dreams and see them come to pass. While I was still a student and when I was in my service year. I have always wanted to not “Live” with my earnings on hive alone, but rather survive with it. I want the hive to remain in my storyline and biography of success over time.

I knew it wouldn't come so easy. I knew it would take a lot of sacrifices, I knew it would take a lot of dedication, and I knew I had to be so consistent. Yet I still wanted Hive in that position. I wish and pray for hive sustainability beyond decades so that at least I can have my dreams come to pass.

Hive never disappointed. I was done with everything and started job hunting. Little did I know that what I was looking for all around was just right in my pocket. I got tired of hunting, sat back, and focused fully on hive. I was not really able to build a good reputation on the platform, but I was able to build a great foundation with my reputation.

Today I am living in the starting point of my dreams and Hive is my stepping stone! I am grateful. I own a little farm. I started with my earnings on Hive. It has been on a gradual growth and this is still all thanks to God who made me see through with Hive. I believe with time I would be able to pay back for all I gained from Hive. And then keep the name “Hive” written in the sand of time! This is the “Survive!”

Thank you Hive!
