AN APPRECIATION POST

Picture credit is mine

The year 2023 was a very fulfilling year for me, so I will be using this post to appreciate everyone who was there for me all through the year. I was thinking to myself where I was last year in status, with friends and family, and where I am this year. The difference is very clear, coming with tons of peace. Although my circle has become quite smaller, it has become healthier because I was able to build some healthy relationships on and off the Blockchain. But before I begin, my first appreciation goes to God Almighty, by whose help I have been able to find the strength to navigate through the Storms of life. And with no further ado, and in no particular order, my appreciation post goes to…

Last year was a very trying time for me, but you were there, even though not always 😂 as a friend and a partner. I can't imagine facing some of the most difficult challenges of my life alone. Even in times when it wasn't convenient for you, times when I demanded too much from you, you ended up letting me know you never left and always got me. I appreciate the great moments we shared, the times we fought, and the memories we made together. You were a big part of my 2023, and I appreciate you for all the love and care you showed. If there's anything you've been to me since I knew you, it is a blessing, thank you for being a blessing to me.

You became more than a friend of mine, you became a big brother I never had, and I can't say thank you enough for being there. One striking thing I love about you is how you don't even have to know my needs. As long as you know I'm in need, you try to see how you can help. In times when there was no one to talk to, you were there to listen and your words of encouragement were as though they were from God Himself. Thank you for everything, bro.

Coming to hive with no knowledge whatsoever as to what I needed to do, I got to know you in a lost state, as though I was sinking in the middle of the ocean, and your help was like a hand pulling me out of that sinking state. I've learned to strive, learned consistency, and hard work through the success I've seen you achieve on the Blockchain. I can come to you anytime, and you never said no to me or made me feel I was as stupid as I thought I was. Always there to look for Ways to help even when you might not know exactly what to do. Although I understand it's just your personality, then again It's hard to find those with such selfless and loving personalities in the world we live in today. Your impact on my life is seen not just in the Blockchain but in my personal life. Thank you for being a friend indeed.

It's funny how I've known you for so long but only got to truly know you this year. If there's one thing I love about you it is your heart. With all your troubles and worries, you are one person to love so preposterously, making it hard for you to be ignored. I can't count how many times you've saved me from hunger 😂, you have always been there to help in any way you could. You didn't need to have anything before you could help, your love has always been sufficient and I appreciate it a lot even though I like being strict with you sometimes 😂. Thank you for being a big part of my 2023.

Right now I'm remembering others that I need to mention and say a thing or two about, but I'm working with time, and I'm far behind so I will just mention all of you instead. @vickoly @b0s @neoxian sir (if you don't mind the tag, I really want to appreciate as I've done in the city too) @oluwadrey and citizens of the neoxian city, thank you all for being a big part of my 2023, I really appreciate you all and I end by saying a HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all.
