Grateful Vibes: Who Loves You, Baby? Shouting Out Your Thank You!

avatar
(Edited)


There have been so many of these posts, but, I really like the idea, and it is so very appropriate for this year. For me, it has been a crazy year, crazy busy, perhaps even more than that. I took several under-the-radar trips that were necessary when COVID was high and a family member needed me. I'm easy that way. If I am needed, I will be there. One of my other truths is that I am grateful for my connections here on Hive and I have been able to grow a little bit each day. I could not do this alone. I have so many to thank for their support, love, assistance, and for instilling a sense of pride in what I have accomplished. Not as much as many, but, with a limited time available, I am more than happy! It was a post I read from @tarazkp where he recognized the people who have helped us through the good times and the bad. So Taraz, I hope you don't mind me borrowing your idea and don't flag me for plagiarizing your words idea.❤️

Who is it that has given you a hand, helped you through something or even everything, given you advice, shared a discord room with you while you tossed it about? When you click the mouse, who is it that draws you closer? Hive and I have had our moments and I cannot tell you who I will call in the middle of the night if I have to. See, being global makes it so much easier, you just need two go-to people. I have three.

Who Would You Like To Thank on Hive? Who Does It For You?


Rules of the Road!

Make a comment, tag the person you are grateful for, or more. Leave room for other people. :)

Tell me and everyone else what they did to help you last year 2021?

Take a moment and thank them properly. Or improperly, but, that may have consequences... and we are back to properly.

Remember that no matter how large or small, the simple act of a gesture from the heart is priceless. Attitudes of gratitude are always welcome.

I admit that I am so lucky in life. People have come forth and made my life easier. I stepped onto the platform and @twinner had a delegation waiting for me. I didn't know it, or him, or even what a delegation was. I didn't know how to check to see where it came from. I have come a long way from that day, and I often think of this man who lives over the pond that didn't know me from Adam, and yet, he came in kindness and made life easier for me. I try to remember how hard it was in the beginning. Being gracious and helpful and sometimes just being there. I have so many people that mean so much to me. They keep me smiling and feed me crypto knowledge, for which I am forever grateful for. I have people tagging me and thanking me for small little niceties that are really nothing, yet, it touched me tremendously and still does. I try to reach out when someone goes out of their way for me. Because, short of sending them flowers, how can I let them know? Don't you know? It is #alwaysaflower for me. I look forward to spending 2022 with all of you!


In no special order:

@bluemoon
@tarazkp
@joanstewart
@galenkp
@generikat
@ericvancewalton
@dandays
@denmarkguy


We all know there are dozens and dozens more, literally. If I didn't put your name, just know, it is written on my heart. Who do you want to thank and what did they do for you? Tell me in the comments!

There are so many reasons you are on my list, but, one of the biggest is what you personally do for the blockchain. You have pulled so many from their shells, involving them and making everyone a winner at one time or other, Being there for people. Just like they know you will be and being able to hear what is not said.

For all these reasons and more, you will always be on my list. Plus, I hear you put on a mean BBQ.

I am sorry that you think I did not vote you, but if you go back to last week's and look. I voted and left you a nice comment and reposted. I was late because I had a house full of company over Christmas and this week we have New Year's and yours is one of the six that I did not get to yet. I cannot sit and post while I am working so I will get to it when I am finished. Thank you for your patience and Happy New Year!

Wishing you a happy new year @dswigle. Thanks for this post. I want to sincerely appreciate everyone who have supported me and put smile on my face here. Sometimes I feel so down and depressed and feels like the world would end and I see surprises from my hive family. This has really push me to where I am today. I have been out of job for a long time but some amazing people here have been there for me.
Love you all.

You are one of my favorite people on the blockchain. You are everywhere I see, getting kind words and Sage advice. I'm not sure where you got all your wisdom from but when you are finished with it, could I have some? Thank you always for leaving many such wonderful words on my posts. 💖

Easier to smile than frown, kindness costs nothing but joy.

Always close the day on a positive note normally seeing if you have a quote, then to ponder the words while in the kitchen doing the next round of a day.

Thanks for your lovely words that wrap some joy into life.

I want to thank @bhoa for onboarding me on Hive and showing me the basics and delegating HP to help me get on my feet.
I find myself going back to him for little guides here and there and even though busy, helps.

@ericvancewalton is one whose support I've received in no small measure. I struggle with consistency because I don't see results of little efforts. But seeing those supports on my posts makes me glad. I have a fatherly feeling towards him and whenever I come on board, I go to check what he's been about.

@tarazkp has most if not all the right words of motivation and teachings, stemming for experience or wherever. His posts resonates with my heart most times. I look forward to reading good contents from him.

When I started hiving, @starstrings01 was far too kind.
@josediccus was able to detect I was MIA.. that meant a lot to me, tells me I'm visible.

When I began to type, I wasn't sure who made my 2021 hiving amazing because I couldn't meet my goals but here I am remembering all the wonderful Hiveans. All it takes is to count on the blessings and name them one by one.

There are more handles that are not readily coming to mind.
I appreciate you all.

I think the fact was a beautiful way of calling out so many different people, thanking them for taking part in your life. There are always many more than what we can think of but I think that those who know you already know that you're thankful. Thank you.

I'm glad I've helped in some way! Persistence in life (in the right areas) pays off big over time. You see that more looking back on life as you get older. When you're young it feels like nothing will ever pay off but then suddenly, the doors will open. Be your authentic self and just run towards the things that ignite your soul. If you do that everything will work out. I wish you a healthy, prosperous, and amazing 2022!

Well I much appreciate the mention. It has been awesome to find such a kind and generous person on here such as yourself.

I am all about thankfulness and being grateful, yet I am a little hesitant making lists as it can be rather tricky. Inevitable I leave out entirely too many people then feel ashamed for being careless.

I didn't really think of it as making a list and worried about if I left somebody off of it. It's not about who you excluded but it's a moment with a few that I included for different reasons. It's not always about the Haves and Have Nots, or the ones who made the list in the ones who failed to. You know I had so many more on the blockchain but I just adore. But this was my wrist and you have no application to put anything on it. :)

Awe, @dswigle, you have seriously brought so many moments of joy to my life over the past couple years. Your effervescent spirit bleeds through in every post you make, whether it be an uplifting comment or an encouraging epistle. I know that there is no way I have expressed the amount of gratitude to you that you deserve😊 Thank you!

There is such a massive list of people who I am grateful to, here's some of them:

I don't think there was peakd when dd left. It was busy. HH has been gone for years. She still has the vote going though. I feel like something happened, otherwise why no answers? :(

I went to his old post a couple of times and he peeked in, but, that was long ago and he hasn't been back after that. I hate to see good people disappear, especially if they could use some moral support.

Anyway... I am droning on. ❤️

You aren't droning, you are speaking my language! I hate it when people like dd and h-h disappear too, especially if it's due to something less than awesome. I mean, I get that sometimes people move on, but they were such a wonderful, active part of the community.

At the very least I hope they know we are thinking of them😊

They do! They have been reached and I am going to have the person reach out once again. It has been so long and honestly, the mail brought nothing of note. I do remember him telling me that life had gotten so busy he didn't have much time, but, radio silence after that.

I really adored him and HH and I hope they know that in some way. ❤️

You are so soft and kind. Who knew that would happen?😂 Yes! Of course, I am kidding.

And to just think I was sitting in my little home contemplating luck, privilege and destiny and then I clicked on your post Denise and my heart sang. The grateful vibes rang out loud and true. So many wonderful and lovely reasons belonging to the blockchain hive and I do feel belonged. I feel inspired, recognition of the many who give me friendship and recognition for my lowly contributions is always a daily boost. Sending love 💗
