The journey of a thousand miles they say begins with a step, i remembered vividly that on the 19th of November, 2023, i wrote my introductory post marking the beginning of my hive journey as a hivean.

MY HIVE EXPERIENCE
It's been two years of positive impacts, personal development and of value addition. Through hive platform, my writing skills becomes more sharpened even as i participated in different communities weekly prompts, contests, discussions. Some of my memorable pieces cuts across health based on my professional career as a Pharmacist. Also, i write on music aswell based on my skill in music even as an instrumentalists right from a young age up till now most especially doing Church music. In addition, i can say that my creative skill was sharpened even as i participated in some communities contests like @openmic, @hive-140169 @afritunes @musiczone @throwback @3speak where creating videos are important.

WHAT MAKES HIVE STOOD OUT FOR ME IN BLOCKCHAIN/WEB
The hive platform stood out for me because of how transparent and engaging various communities can be. Various communitues engagements including discord channels, hangout and even engaging others post through comments, upvotes, reblogging etc thrills me about the hive platform. In addition, the hive backed dollar (HBD) rewards, hive reward, ecency points reward and others make it stood out for me even as hive rewards originality, creativity and excellence. Also, the various organised/well connected apps to access the hive platform and for the easy navigation of each of them do make me appreciate the hive platform the more. For instance, use of 3speak, hive keychain, ecency etc even a single post is thrilling.

ACHIEVED HIVE GOALS FOR THIS YEAR
Earlier this year at the start of the year, in one of my posts as a participation in one of the contests, i stated clearly my hive goals for this year 2025 which includes hive power ups, hive delegation, community engagement, having at least 10 composed songs etc.I'm glad to say that as compared to my first year of joining the hive platform (i.e. between November 2023 - November 2024), this second year (i.e. November 2024 - November 2025) most especially this year 2025, i have had more power ups, hive power delegation, no power down this year at all and also composed more than 10 songs which are my personal/spontaneous music compositions.
