What Does Hive Mean To Me. (Kind of a re-introduction post)
First of all, I have to say this is just a mere cross-post of my original article published last night at midnight on PeakD. And one article which I reckon is very relevant and well deserves be also shared on the Steem blockchain for significant and further scrutiny as a crucial breakpoint of reflection for both consanguineous communities.
Well, this post has been my first post in the brand new HIVE blockchain. Something that was going to happen sooner rather than later anyway. But interestingly, after a couple of invitations by two notable members of our community and a series of recent events during these last weeks. This has lead me to create this post tonight (midnight) in a kinda rushy fashion just to confirm one or two things I already know. ¡Crickets keep chirping!
"What Does Hive Mean To Me"
Yup! this post is in response to @theycallmedan's very FIRST #hiveimpact Initiative on HIVE! where he invites us to answer 4 basic questions through a post:
- What is HIVE to you?
- What do you want to see HIVE evolve into?
- What do you think about having a large funded DAO for future HIVE development?
- What does HIVE mean to you?
And then, there is also the "My Introduction Challenge" promoted by @anomadsoul where he is inviting us to make a post about US.
Now is your chance to write an Introduce yourself post, telling your new readers who are you, updating your old audience about what you've been doing during the past few years, what are you doing on Hive, and much, much more.
So let's kill two birds with one stone.
And let's start with the much, much more first.
Oh yeah! this video above is not my Introduce Myself direct response to Eric contest. No, no, no, no. I can assure you that both videos in this post are rather more in sync with my current mood in relation of the series of recent events ocurred during these last weeks that I mentioned earlier.
As is the fact of being locked up at home since Monday for the quarantine and without internet all day long. Currently, It hardly comes and gets a little better only at midnight.
And the fact that I am also without cigarettes right now. In summary. That I find myself locked up at home without internet, without cigarettes and without having where to resupply due to the shortage. How joyous and optimistic could we feeling these days? But yeah, now I reckon that I'm probably digressing...
So, let's start with My Introduction to the Hive Community right away. Since my optics and perspective on things has not changed much in four years. I think I will let my ancient and first article ever written and also recorded on the blockchain be the one which answer the four questions of @theycallmedan and simultaneously also fulfill the post requirements of @anomadsoul.

Or is there something different in my writing style since then?
Or in the consistency of my words and way of thinking?
Or in my expectations about usual human behavior?
Or how egalitarian shared rewards should be?
Or what a real quality content author is?
Or if this meant something at all?
Yeah! ¡You Tell Me!
This is a revamped repost of my ancient content in steemit. As a matter of fact, the first post I did when I signed up & joined steemit. Which for that time, gathered the amazing figures of 5 votes, $0.00 earnings, scarcely 2 comments and only 14 views in its entire lifetime.
¡Yummy & Encouraging! ¿Right?
Well, I guess it is just matter of optics, perspectives and righteous clear expectations. Logical thinking never seems to be too much optimistic when you are actually wearing your Hat Of The Experience. In fact, on these new things online there is no lucky rabbit's foot, four leaf clovers or lucky horse's shoe which helps out.
Therefore, I just decided to wear my diving suit, fill my oxygen tank to the max and dive to the bottom of my fish kettle to find and rescue from oblivion my very first pearl of original & quality content that I planted here on the platform four years ago. And then, share it again today one more time.
And since not only did I ever wonder if a REPOST would be of some value to the community and if it would be worth a try as my good friend @tarazkp asked himself long time ago too. I think I will do it right away so that you can judge for yourselves. }:)
With nothing more to add. "The Ancient Lost Pearl" of @por500bolos
«My First Steemit Story»
¡Steem, Hopes, Faith & Moola in the 'Digital Society' of Century XXI!
¡Yeah! I bet we all may well be here cause undoubtedly seems like everyone these days is just short of.. Do$h.
M.V.P. ¡The Lean Startup! ¡Product Liability! Proof of Concept - Marketing Strategies - Trade Test Methods - Return of Investment - Entrepreneurship - Startups World.
"A business idea will always be a business idea. Even more booming if these are previously tested, experienced & supported across the streets (or through The Information Superhighway) when they stir & shake The Faith."
Well folks, or ¿should I say 'dear steemians'? This is my first post here in a crappy attempt to introduce myself to this (one more time) promising community. You rightly might say I've actually already had a handful of previous experiences across all these so called newer Social Networks Which Pay & Share Revenues With Their Userbase. Yes! because their 'original' content and formidable storyteller skillz.
Among a few, just to name one, the most recent; TSU.. ¿Ring a bell?
Well yeah, ok, I was a former Tsuvian for around two years. Not much prolific if I must say the truth. Mainly because I was not in communion with the utmost posting trend there to get rewards. Yep, you guessed it.. A pointless torrent of void images and photos of Flowers, Bugs, Clouds, Landscapes, Sunrises, Sunsets, Suncraps, etc, etc, etc. flying everywhere all the time. Everything in the name and on behalf of "originality". #Originalcontent, like they used to say. ¿Do you catch the swing?
So, since I am more in tune with 'Wordy Stuff' Yup, you tell me, crap that actually get your neurons rolling and squeaking in sight I'm more of a babbler beast.. Well, to make the story short, my two hands fingers are enough to count the dohlahs I was able to accumulate in my tsu bank after almost 730 days perpetrating thoughtful and mischievous posts in a futile and fruitless attempt to excite or disturb some neurons out there to hopefully produce and harvest a ton of newer synapses around me in some way. ¡Go figure! and then suddenly laid off skint & pennyless without previous notice outta that wishful dream.
Therefore, solely to insist in observe, magnifying glass in hand, where all these brand new Digital Society Experiments and Sharing Economy Buzzing could eventually lead us through the net.. I had to soar & hover a bit more around the boundaries of these Booming Social Networks, Ca$h Lands Of Grace and Online Dime$ Paradises/Communities which rewards your valuable nonsense, SOMETIMES.
Alright! At this height and length of my babbling, you surely must have noticed that english is not my native tongue. So excuse me my weird sentences construction to express my alien ideas and the bunch of typos I probably would incur way too often from now on. I can only say I will appreciate your comments if you care to pinpoint where in my texts I went too wacko.As a note aside and just to poke a bit your curiosity, I'm not gonna say what country I come from, however, to give you a few hints, let's say I am currently in a place where most of its inhabitants are closer and closer to borrow money from bums sleeping on a bench using their own shoe as a pillow. A city where almost all the inhabitants are next to find hard rub two coins together after the eagerly awaited day of tomorrow.. The Venerable 1-S.
Hence, I had no other choice but stop my online flutter & hovering game right away, grab my shabby parachute, throw my spoiled bones thru the air and land on Steemit to try and test some luck with no more waiting.
Who knows, perhaps and even against all the odds Moby Dick is snooping my steps out here and will want to grease me up with some valuable ambergris, spermaceti or simply sperm oil to light and keep my humble candle going on for a while.
Last but not least, a few final thoughts to round up this article and cut out some fog away of myself.
"Loose Nuts & Bolts worth to drop on this first post"
Most of us wake in the morning attempting to curve the baseball of life into our sweet spot. From there we all fantasize about hearing that smack of the ball in the one place that will take it higher and further than the ever before. We dream of hearing the stadium announcer scream, “And that ball is outta here!”
Then the rush of achievement smothers us in pure orgasmic joy as we race around the bases to home plate and advancing the three stranded runner to a score as well. (¿Upvotes anybody?)
Then, almost as simultaneously as our adventure and subsequent conquering began, it ends. The thrill is gone. We bow our heads and place our palms on our knees in a dry attempt to catch our breath once again. We strain to understand why the emotion of the circulation of adrenaline has ceased to inhabit our literal being.
It is at that moment, you realize that you left the stove on at home.
¡Going with the flow will get you nowhere if the water is in a still pond!
¡Running with the pack often leads to conflicts you are not prepared for!
¡In order for a dream to come true, you must have had a dream to begin with!
After all, we are entirely trapped in a trend's MVP world where the environment and all our surroundings, at the end of the day, places everyone day in day out, in front of bear & endure also those other everlasting Minimum Viable Products in our life: The Sheepthecantropus Erectus, The Comm-Magnom Man and the dreadful Homo Satrapiens. Each one of them as the results of Some Sort Of Human Evolution. The "HOMO HABILIS" of the century XXI.
So, finally, never forget and always remember that timeless shiny rule of thumb:
¡Experience is something you don't get until after you need it!
Hence, four years later, I suspect you all will know exactly what I am talking about. :)
