The early days of Steemit will be remembered as one of the most exciting times of my life, for sure. It was the culmination of so many long-held dreams.
Hive definitely seems much more stable, more of a lazy river with the occasional spray from the side.
LOL, that is just about the most perfect analogy I've heard yet!
I bet Hive is just as exciting to some newer users as it was for us. I would imagine the Hive income for those bloggers from other parts of the developing world (South America, Eastern Europe, Africa) could be as life-changing as Steemit was for us.
It's so good to take that time to be grateful. I try to do that every day. After five years this new life still sometimes feels like a dream. I hope I never fully get used to it because it would be less enjoyable then. I am flattered, you are on my list as well. Enjoy your weekend!
