Eight years is a good time! Congratulations for your perseverance! I will also be 8 years here in August, but I'm far from having your discipline, and it's not because I don't enjoy it but because real life takes up too much of my time. But I always escape from the routine to share on Hive because I really can't get away from the Blockchain, it has something that always brings me back.
Celebrate your successes and Happy Hive anniversary to you! 🎉
I think what keeps it consistent for me is that Hive is a place for me to reflect on real life, it helps me process my experiences and hopefully, helps people reflect on their own :)
