Hive anniversary 6!

_{It is the cake day today, and that is a honey cake with wildflowers from the Latvian meadows!}

Hi, there! Today’s been six years since I joined and been part of this community. And while it’s been four months of silence from me, I am here and not going anywhere. I love Hive. I love everything it stands for. But what I love the most are the people who now are my friends, thanks to Hive. I am to this day so lucky for the chain reaction that led me here. My life is forever altered for the better in ways I could have never imagined!

But holy moly! Fucking six years! That is quite a lot, eh? Am I a dinosaur now? Or what one would call an OG? Do you even know me? I mean, I know I am not the same person who joined all those years ago. That is for sure! The awesome thing, however, is that my posts are like time capsules of the versions of me as I reflected in many of them about whatever events and happenings that were shaping me I am now.

Sometimes it is interesting to go back in time and to read where you were years ago. You never know what you will find. Cringe here and there? Or wonder about how the heck the picture was so clear back then. Perhaps, remind yourself of some truths you have found for yourself. So, I would like to encourage you… yes you, the one reading this! Go to your blog and have a peek at your timeline in three different spots. How do you feel about you back then?

Or if you are brand new here, welcome home, and I hope you will love it here just as much as I have and more!

Anyway! Hi! I am m31, the purple galaxy, and I am here to brighten your day with these beautiful flowers from my garden today. Here you probably will find vibrant colors, my drawings or paintings or other creations, my rawest feelings and darkest thoughts sometimes, and my wanderings on this beautiful rock we call Earth captured in words and images the best I can convey and present to you.
