I felt the wind of inspiration blowing my way when I was reading an article on Hive about dolphins, whales, orcas and other fishies lol. The amount of work that somebody has to do on Hive is serious bussiness. Although it is very easy to look at numbers and dream about lots of Hive, few can see the hard work behind the statistics.
All the hours spent to post, create content, engage, follow other people's content and accurately curate is not easy. The sea of Hive is enormous and you can easily get lost. To be a good swimmer means to develop strenght and resilience. To have a vision and follow your own path while paying attention to the other fishies. As I am a big fan of sea life, I could not help but adore the metaphors chosen for various types of users here.

So many comments and engagement from the orcas! I have a deep feeling of respect and admiration. I had to do a facepainting to applaude all the Orcas of Hive for their efforts.

The funny thing is that everybody wants something from the sea, but only those strong enough to ride the waves will be the most powerful and deserving of collecting rewards. Hard work and commitment deserve appreciation.

The sea of Hive is a great ecosystem. The whales, the orcas, the dolphins and the fishies can all coexist. I am happy to swim in such a sea!

True
The sea is definitely large, exploring the uncharted waters is fun, I get to learn quite a lot and also get the different perspectives on life in general. Hard work and commitment do pay up in the long run.
Yes they do. Work and perseverance is necessary. Nothing comes easy unless you work for it with dedication

Thank you!
That must have taken ages to put on!! So trippy!!
True, and thats why so many of them leave instead of trying harder. HIve is less about money and more about passion. Well its a bit different for the traders but for the content creators, its all about the dedication, focus and engagement.
BTW i feel kinda high now looking at all those colors XDXD
Thanks! Hahha trippy indeed. Love the blue and purple and had to use them. Hive is indeed first about passion. At least for me.
I'm a fan of Free Willy and Nintendo Dolphin (Nintendo 64). Therefore, I rehived this post. Thanks for going back in time to say hello to me in the 1980's. I decided to fly forward by like forty years or less to the present, to the 2020's, to look at your art. Good work. I like the Hive ecosystem that you are writing about. Yeah, gotta swim. Yeah, it takes endurance.
Thanks! 😁 Yup, gotta swim
I left you a comment 3 months ago. But that was back when I didn't really know who you were.
Wow, this is really nice body art.
Very well done by the artist who made it and bless the model. I guess it was a long hour job. Boito turned out
I am the artist and also the model. Thanks!
Oh my God...
Great, it's really not something just anyone can do. By the way, if that's your eye color, they're a beautiful color.
It's good that through such beautiful eyes you can see and recreate art in your own way.
Happy day.
Hey! Thank you 😊 It is my eye color, with the help of colors applied on my face it makes a nice contrast. I love facepainting, it is complete relaxation for me to do this. Thanks for stopping by and admire my art, I appreciate it. Have a wonderful day!
great post. and yes, all that about surviving in this great sea is true....
also great face painting.... this looks amazing. i love this kind of things, specially watching timelapse videos of facepainting....
Facepainting is lots of fun, glad you liked it😊
Wow! Impressive. You keep amazing me with your art :<)
By the way, it's funny how we carried these Steemit names ( minnow, dolphin, orca, whale ) over to Hive. Imagine all of these in a Hive, stuck in the honey ;<)
P.S. I decided to remove my little delegation to you today as you're more than strong enough to stand on your own feet these days.
Big hug,
Vincent
Thank you! I found the metaphor amazing that is why I felt inspired. I am grateful for your delegation, I will never forget the kind gesture and I thank you. I hope it will help another new talented user emerge and swim in the Hive sea 🌊🤗
