Have you ever been so in tune with something, that you notice little pieces just pop out of no where that say, "Hey, you are." 'You are'. Because I am. It so happened to occur to me this day, on the 5th birthday of Hive, that the planet and I, were aligned.

I was going to make this an entry for some raffle tickets in that post from the Hive people themselves (but, aren't we all Hive? Why does one account garner more attention than the rest 🤔?) but, I decided that I don't really need a hundred HBD as bad as someone else that is probably scrambling just to pay their electric bill.

So, I decided instead, to throw out a few wisecracks and pay homage to some things that I do love about this place.

First and foremost would be @thealliance. I helped to build this family oriented organization years before Hive was even born. I say helped, because just as @thealliance. is known for saying, "it's all about the community", so too, would there be no Castle standing today if I did it all on my own accord. The Alliance embodies that community aspect and has passed it along to countless others on this blockchain.

In fact, another of my conquests, PIMP (like so many others), was born within the halls and walls of The Alliance Castle. In its early stages, it was a tiny little worthless token nobody cared about but people had faith in me. People like @tattoodjay, @tattoodjay, @tattoodjay, @tattoodjay, @tattoodjay, my sister @tattoodjay, @tattoodjay and my queen of all the things - @tattoodjay, never gave up on my goals.

Sure, there were other early adopters, but that core and a handful of others believed in me and now? The PIMP token gets put in the tops of lists across Hive for multiple reasons and one of them being - what has carried over from the fam that spawned it. The community.

Now, I could go on and tag a thousand people and how we have become close on and off chain like @katrina-ariel (love you mama bear) and @katrina (bass are starting to bite!) and this person and that person and probably their cousins and in-laws too, but then this post would take a month to write. Don't let the sun go down on you.

So, know that I love all of you in that regard and am happy to be here, even if I'm not here. I mean who am I and who are you? What do you do? Do you REMEMBER TO BE YOU!? I always am, because we're all mad here.
