RE: Hive anniversary 6!

Happy anniversary, nice to see you posting again!

Do you even know me?

That's a very interesting question about all of us. For one thing, what version of ourselves we have shared in the chain and maybe even more interesting, what is the image of ourselves that the others have perceived.

Aww thank you @fotostef! I think it was the longest time I had not posted. It did not feel great since I love Hive so much!

what version of ourselves we have shared

That is something all social places online face. Sometimes we are driven to show all the good sides only, to paint a perfect picture of our lives and who we are. And I wonder if we leave out the struggles not because we are wanting to be perfect but because we are scared to appear weak, or are even ashamed of stuff. Or sometimes when when life is not so great it is just hard to share. However, I have seen people on Hive be more vulnerable and honest about their situations more than in other places online.

It is true. Myself I have shared much more private thoughts and feelings that I originally intended but somehow the people I've met here, made me feel comfortable to do so :)

Cheers!
