Hive change someone's life? I'm sure it can, it can and even reach the hearts of many, I can attest to that.

This August 31st I was restarting my work activity at the University of Pinar del Río, Cuba (I was on vacation), when the word Hive came to my ears for the first time through the comments of a friend, I really didn't understand what she was referring to and out of curiosity I asked: Who is Hive? and her words were: I still don't understand how it works very well, but it's on the internet, through some applications I make posts about the topics I like and passionate about the most, I also put pictures, and as a result I get votes, comments and new friends, and even this site can help us improve economically, aspects that were enough for me to say: I'm interested in knowing more about Hive! Will you help me?

And that's how I arrived, by chance, to the WhatsApp Group with the name: Learning Hive from our experiences, at first a total silence while new members were entering, all interested in learning more about Hive. As the hours passed, it was very easy to understand that around this idea of teaching and learning, there was a leader (@newnow497) and a fantastic team of scholars of Hive, who are also leaders (@noakmilo, @zullyscott, @nanixxx, @lileisabel, @theinfiltred, @filoriologo, @yecier, @janetedita, @ceciliajess, @chacald.dcymt, @jordy0827, @yonnathang, @rlathulerie, @eddiespino, @noakmilo, @palomap3, @dayadam, @warofcriptonft and @pleo1542), eager to teach their knowledge and contribute so that the new members of the Hive could enter under the best conditions possible.
Various were the learning! Even when, for some, the technical language of Hive seemed to be undecipherable, because the group of apprentices was diverse (of all ages and intellectual level), the effort of everyone was remarkable and the daily debate on doubts and even possible doubts, hahaha, was the reflection of them.
What to tell you about me and this excellent course? I debated for several days between the daily work, the household chores and not missing any detail of these meetings, because I wanted to learn more, if possible receive each content first-hand, right there, just behind each audio, link, video or image that they sent us.

The first night of the course I had a hard time falling asleep. For several days the words: Hive, Esency, PeakD, Liketu, 3speak, Keychain, Community, Curators, Witnesses, Whales ran through my mind just to mention some, it was difficult to organize them! But luckily, that's what the guys (teachers of the courses) were there for, as each of them intervened the ideas were being organized and giving logic to the internal functioning of the network, it was fantastic and necessary to understand the meaning of the word Hive.

All the topics were of interest to me, but without a doubt, what captivated me the most was finding so many human values in this community. I think I got hooked on Hive with both feet! In my opinion, the most interesting thing about this Blockchain is that it mobilizes the essences and makes us express those more intense feelings and experiences.
Study a lot about Hive! Respect the criteria of others! Ask if you have doubts! Never plagiarize! When you write your post do it with passion, with feeling and always try to be yourself! Socialize! Ask the group for permission to talk to other members! These were some of the expressions and recommendations of the members of the community, which demonstrate that Hive must be taken seriously.

It only took two days and Hive was already running through my veins, the desire to have my own account on the Blockchain surpassed my reality and it was with the help of @eduardo900613 that I got my referral link. I then began to take my first steps to put into practice what I had learned, the path of inexperience, but never lacking the friendly hand of @manuphotos when I made the first mistake, luckily it wasn't anything complicated.
All that remains is to thank the friendly hand of everyone and the nobility of transmitting their knowledge in exchange for nothing, or perhaps, in exchange for a lot, for the dreams of others, for the love of Hive.
A big hug! I promise to stay here for a while, which I hope will be long lasting. See you around!
