well then, 2 years on the blockchain! Admittedly for about a year I did next to nothing but the last year has been a really good ride even more so since the #hive came into being.

I'm loving the experience on here more and more. Enjoying the writing and the collective creative spirit from so many different angles and there are so many interesting , innovative and witty content creators out there on the hive. Loving it!

Part of me regrets not doing more in the first year but it was as I started to get people I know interested around me such as @biggypauls, @iamyohann and @discoveringarni who were asking about what I was doing , that I really caught some momentum.

I've learned alot from my fellow hivers here as they delved into areas i didn't know about and then bumping into @galenkp and his awesome engagement initiatives ,@jaynie,@tarazkp,@livinguktaiwan and @ybanezkim26 to name but a few just fueled my fire even more. Really appreciate the help along the way.

We've now recruited @millycf1976 and @diveratt into the fold and they've settled in nicely so i am looking forward to more years on the hive as it's evolving, changing, growing and adapting. It's a really interesting time to be on the blockchain so let's see what we can all make of it moving forward.

Happy Hive birthday, @scubahead! That's great that you can name so many friends and influencers along your journey. It does become addictive once you get bitten by the bug!

thanks @jayna. Should have included you also :) It's a great platform and has so much depth. I think we can expect some interesting things in the future as it grows

Happy Hive Birthday!

getting old lol 2 already. I'll be walking and talking soon

Yes, congrats on 2 years. Even though its more like only 1 and a bit, because of the long breaks last year.

yup, very true. Hangs head in shame. Lightbulb moment though was heading home to work on my balcony and catch up on bookings and e mails without the distraction of all the guests in the shop. I caught up and saw the icon on my usually visited pages and clicked on it. scrolled, saw the #monomad competition. had another stab at the blockchain and the gears started to grind. Then it was just plugging away and then when i got others here involved it really got interesting. Lets see where we are at at 3 years :)

I'm glad you are back in full force. Very wise move, and better late than never. Also the entire Philippines crew of Hivers are doing a pretty bang up job. The content is a great and valuable addition to the ecosystem.

we are having some fun with it for real. Also its nice to be able to talk about it at the bar at the dive shop without getting "that look" when people really don't get it

That is something I wish I had here.

i think its partially why I stopped for a while and I was super busy at work. Now we bounce off each other. Its pretty cool and we all discover new hings and people

Well Happy Hive Birthday to you!
And here is to another year 🍺

awwww @ewkaw how did I forget you. PLease forgive my old man brains ;)

hahaha I dunno :D
I will blame the beer :P

haha you could possibly be right 😂

I am very glad you and @biggypauls fell under the @monochromes and #monomad spell.
One of the few things that keep me going is to find new talents and give them the exposure and motivation they deserve.
It has been a delight to see you guys evolving the way you have.
Happy Hive Birthday!

kudos to you guys. I really probably would never have posted again at that time were it not for the #monomad comp. the reaction to those posts gave me the feeling to continue

Manually curated by brumest from the Qurator Team. Keep up the good work!

thanks guys. you guys really are the grease that keep this blockchain from seizing up

Music to our ears! :))

How the hell have I not met you in those 2 years?!? You mention many of the people I hold in high esteem and look like a solid dood.

Congrats on the milestone and imagine how great the next 2 years are gonna be!!

i have a good feeling about the next few years. time to grow

Happy birthday, cheers to a more fruitful and happy years on hive, God bless!

Happy second dude! It is good to see you enjoying the block and bringing on new people. It is amazing that we are the 1% actually into this technology building communities and economies while the masses think we are crazy😂. Cheers to an abundant future on the block where we actually get to travel and link up!

looking forward to that! Yes so true how people think we are crazy. Luckily now I have a crew of us here so we can discuss the hive. I think people are mad for not getting onboard. It's crazy not to!

Congrats on the 2 years, sounds similar first year pontificate...

Plenty to see, much to do keep enjoying buzzing around in good company @scubahead
