Wow! Vikas (sorry if I remembered the spelling incorrectly)

9 years! You would have been a whole different person when you wrote your first post to who you are today. I promise that the time spent writing will have improved you in many other ways massively.

Something you did not mention is that your written English is so much better than it used to be. 🤔

Nine years ago, I took a leap into a new frontier of social media. Today, I am incredibly proud to celebrate my 9th anniversary on the Hive blockchain.

You should be proud, in an age where nobody sticks to anything for longer than 5 minutes before moving on, scrolling or swiping, you have laid down roots and begun to grow until reaching the stage you are at today. Remember this is just the mid-section of your journey, there is more to learn, more to do and more growth to be found and you will...

The real reason you should be proud is:

There is always a scope of improvement and I am not going to miss it.

That is where it is really at, my friend, one of the key meanings behind life.

After 9 years here, you know in your heart that being 'popular' is often the result of games and things that take place in the shadows 🤔

All these years, I earned my rewards through hard efforts and the zeal to get better which kept the motivation factor alive.

That is so much more satisfying and fulfilling than being handed something. Respect to you for showing up over and over and over again... Keep going!!! 🚀😎🌻

You started here a few months before me, I was early 2018, I will be here next year for the cutting of your cake for TEN YEARS! How will you grow between now and then, what more will you learn? There's only 1 way to find out, right?

Here's to mornings and ☕
