Lol... The tongue out at the end š.
I can totally relate to your blog post and it felt like I was reading my rambling, well aside from the cat and the electricity thing. I don't have a cat and going without electricity is the norm here, so I'm literally always prepared to live without it.
When my sister was onboarding me to hive, she'd always ring it in my ear that hive is another world of its own. I should take it seriously like my life depends on it lol.
I have since come to the realization that being on hive and then living in reality is like living in both worlds. I was actively running both side by side till I crashed and sorted for a balance.
Before my health crashed, it was so bad that I felt sleeping was a waste of time. 24 hours wasn't enough for me again, so many activities and I wanted to do them all.
I love hive and it's very therapeutic for me, it helps me cope emotionally and mentally because, coming on hive, gives me an insight to the world around me.
It's like being depressed and changing environments, doing the things that I love and meeting people who genuinely want to meet me too. All that I have mentioned, I achieve on hive from the comfort of my home without breaking a bank or going out of my way.
Ok ok... I'm the one rambling now and my comment is gradually becoming a post š. Wishing your Kitty a speedy recovery and I really admire how much love and intentionality animals get at your part of the world.
that sounds like a living nightmare to me ;(
Yeah I definitely get what you mean, the people I've met here get on this other level compared to relationships I've built elsewhere, it's like they need their own section.
For instance I owe some people Hive who are active here as my finances have been a mess lately, due to my reputation they've entrusted me with it without even knowing my real name or what I look like, that's like quite unheard of and you wouldn't be able to do this anywhere else.
Here they know that I value my reputation and the future of it above anything else though and more people should too. Who knows how big this platform can get, who the next millionaire trading memecoins can be and what they'll do with it for our ecosystem. Building connections can lead to a much greater time on here in the long run and it doesn't always have to be about the rewards.
If anything even if hive never goes anywhere we can rest assured that whatever we've written here won't go anywhere and AI will in the future read these chats wondering wtf we were trying to do while no non-tech life is around any longer. xD
Ohh you sure got that right... Living without electricity is hell and not a life one can ever get used to, not even in third world countries.
Took me quite a while to believe something like hive actually existed because the transparency is not something we see in our everyday life.
There's this saying that a good name is better than riches, which makes our reputation more valuable than wealth. I hope more and more humans will key into this level of consciousness.
Then later in the Future, with our writeups, possibly AI could create some sort of holographic memory from our past lives š
