I’m 32 years old now and it is 2025 🤯
Wow, it really is crazy. I have not posted a blog since August. That was half a year ago. I really never thought I would be taking that long of a break from her — from Hive.
Let’s just say life has evolved into something completely different since then and yet I still have the same burning feeling deep within me that THIS is going to be one of the best decisions of my life. A lot of us have the same intuitive sense, but most people in our lives simply don’t understand what powers this blockchain holds.
The volcanic eruption is more eminent than ever 🌋 are you eyeing HIVE at $1, $5, $15, or beyond?
Here’s a random thought of mine…
I really wish HBD was available on Crypto.com so I could easily load up my debit card and never have to leave Hive’s ecosystem when purchasing things in the real world.
Am I still exiled on here? Hell — who knows? I hope not as I have always felt welcome and consider it quite literally my Hive, 🏡 my home.
I hope everybody has been doing well. A lot of crazy things have happened in my life and most importantly I am happy + healthy.
I have found a way to see life through yet another new lens and the sense of purpose it gives me makes every living and breathing moment pure bliss, even in times of stress and anguish, sickness and pain — I still feel the need to continue on just to find out what may happen next. Life is incredible and it never hurts to acknowledge that fact.
There’s no such thing as giving up, finish lines are imaginary, and death is simply a new beginning.
Here are some photos I’ve captured since my hiatus from Hive began. I think I just needed to work on life a bit and now it’s time to get back to it with all these other crypto visionaries.
The photos are self-portraits captured by me using an iPhone 14 Pro Max with a tripod, and 10-second timer. There is one graphic design image I did inspired by my legendary birds Pokemon tattoo. The AI image is something I prompted with ChatGPT 4o. You will also see some pictures from my Isla Mujeres, Mexico trip, Halloween, Christmas, and a showcasing of my fashion sense & fitness gains.
This is the only AI-generated image in this post
OG Hive users are the most patient and resilient of any blockchain loyalists in my opinion.
Love and prosperity to every last one of you — I sincerely mean that. 👏

Nice to see you again. But the variety of your outfit looks great with that
Thanks! I’ve always been a colorful person and my wardrobe reflects that.
I'm happy that you're doing good man and I'm glad that you came back from the hiatus. Was wondering where you went off to.
thanks homie! It was a much needed reset. First long break since Dec 2017. Have you been playing any Marvel Rivals?
Sorry for the late reply, i thought about playing it but, I'm not really into hero shooters like that 😅
I feel you on that. If you were into them it is definitely a great hero shooter.
You love colors a lot. I love that Christmas sweater and the orange underwear you have. Surrounded by a lot of colors really uplifts our mood as well as of others. Sharing the happiness in the indirect way is a cause that people often underestimate.
You are correct about that, colors are something I love using to express myself and stand out. I’ve seen people having a bad day totally perk up and get excited when they see me wearing a bright colored outfit. I normally don’t have Christmas outfits, but my new job has encouraged me to celebrate every holiday more than usual.
People often misjudge boys as Gay who wears very colorful clothes. Does this happen with u also?
hahaha you’re not wrong about that. It was especially true when I was a young boy and even more so true before you and I were born. I was more afraid to wear what I wanted when I was in school due to this. As an adult I have full confidence to wear anything I desire to. It’s 2025 now and things are much different. I never have anybody accuse me of such a thing anymore. Perhaps it’s because I’m more confident as a grown man. Maybe societal standards have evolved so far to wear people no longer thing think the same about color. Hard to say, all I know is you can wear many colors and it does not make you gay.
Happy to hear about it. Don't your girlfriend get jealous so were so colorful attire than her?🤣🤣
I currently am not tied down with a girlfriend. When I have had one though they’ve never been jealous of how I dress. The thing I deal with now is girls being jealous of each other because I’m friendly to many, especially at work.
Cool.
Wow welcome back man... That's quite a lot of photos. You look like a famous actor in most of the pics !!! 😁
Thanks for the warm welcome. It’s great to be back in action. I do take photos all the time and I hadn’t posted any on here for 6 months. The ones on this post are my favorites of the stockpile. The famous actor comment makes me chuckle.
Hahaha 🤗🤗🤗
Hahaha 🤗🤗🤗
It’s a good thing to see you’re back on Hive or you’re just passing by
I’m sure if you stick around and keep doing what you do overtime you’ll overcome all the BS that’s going on with Hive rn
You can’t stop a man who never give up
I never wanted to be away for 6 months, but I feel like it’s what needed to happen. I never plan to disappear completely forever. I likely will continue posting again finally, but I’m sure I will never get back to posting daily now that I’ve been reminded how life is without constantly pressuring myself to crank out posts, which eventually leads to me lowering the quality of posts. It’s just better for me to have a more relaxed approach.
What drama and BS have I missed out on? I’m not aware.
Hey young guy, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I like this mask the best..
Yo! What’s good my friend? Happy New Year to you and your family too.
That mask looks very realistic paired with my bald head. It reminds me of the old Wrestler Sting’s face paint.
true! u do like Sting. he was one of my favorites..
Heyyyi was wondering where you ran off to . Good to see you back man
I have been around still, but I took a great deal of time off from posting. I’ve been busy with many things, but I’m happy to be present here.
Over all am glad u back
thank you very much 👏
Hey man, it's good to see you back on the blockchain!
Loving these positive thoughts you have starting 2025, and the sentiment regarding the Hive pump and how us OG Hive members feel about things in on point!
Wishing you a prosperous, abundant, and joy filled 2025!
Thanks bro! I’m glad you’re still around too.
There are many things on my mind, but that is what I was able to release through this update and attempt to reconnect with everyone.
Stay blessed my friend 🙌
Great to see you back man! I'm reaaaaaaally hoping the downvote thing is over, but just don't post weeks of Gran Turismo cars LOL in fact I would never post one of those again unless you decline rewards :D.
Really glad to hear that you are healthy and in a good place! Are you still doing door dash or whatever it was? Hopefully you are still hustling!
Pretty wild the recent price fluctuations that have been going on. I know I enjoy it but I also miss discounted Hive for sale LOL
Happy new year man! Hopefully you have a great one ahead of you!
Yeah hopefully so. I haven't played GT7 in 6 months either. Too busy.
I was going Instacart. I stopped doing that last May. I got an amazing job as transporter for a nursing/rehab facility. My first healthcare job and honestly the best job ever in so many ways. Hustling and helping 😎
Big things on the horizon here. I don’t want to be in the shadows during it.
Happy new year to you too my dude.
Oh yeah that's right I forgot you switched to that job! Awesome dude, I'm glad you are in that direction. There are a lot of things that can open up the more you expand in that type of thing. There are so many roles (I know from personal experience) in that sector that it's really wild to think about. So many underrepresented directions you can go in!
Glad that you're doing well though man, thought about you a time or two over the past few months!
For now I am thrilled to be getting to drive daily, socialize with amazing coworkers and residents, make use of all the clothes and shoes that I have, make consistent money, and know that what I do every day truly matters.
It’s good to be back.
Can't complain about that at all man! Having life and job satisfaction is so important, I'm glad you've found a really big and important source of it!
You da man. It’s cool to have great people to celebrate these types of things with again.
