Tell me a story/ How are you feeling these days on Hive? (Es/ En)

Accepting the invitation of my witch and Ave friends, I'm joining in to share my perspective on #hive today.
This June is my birthday month on the #hive platform, without diminishing the process and stage that each member has experienced, is experiencing, and continues to experience. Yes, many lessons learned, in all aspects, and quite a few dips in motivation, even though I enjoy writing. At first, it was very didactic and academic, and I thought that was the reason I wasn't receiving consistent monetization.

Despite that, I've never stopped creating content because that's what I chose from the beginning. There are many opportunities, but I think more responsibilities mean more time has to be dedicated. I've always wanted that freedom of time in an activity like this.

My writing style has changed, yes. The communities I participate in have changed, yes. Despite this, monetization is, of course, a great gift for anyone who waits for it; it adds to the other sources of income I've built up over the years. My steady income, as I mentioned, is my pension as a retiree from the Ministry of Education (Venezuelans, you understand this).

Yes, I like to write; I've even learned a bit about storytelling, reflecting a little feeling, spirituality, self-love, what a human being carries in their inner world—not just the darkness, but also the light that can emanate. (Someone once told me, between the lines, that my writing is boring.) I left those words hanging in the air. If there is freedom as they proclaim it, no one can criticize a user's creation, even if they don't like it. It comes from their own history and experiences. Today, those writings on spirituality and science, emotions, thoughts, and feelings are more relevant than ever. Now I understand that I wrote them from my own perspective of Noology.

Sometimes I read criticisms—I don't know if I can call them that—that many of us were wasting our time because we didn't see this platform as a business, a path to financial growth in the world of cryptocurrencies. To that, I respond that now everyone knows why they're here, why they continue despite everything changing in this field. I also congratulate all those who, in one way or another, have expanded into different businesses—if you can call them that—where they've applied the knowledge acquired on this platform to grow and have taken a great interest in this crypto world.

It's true, everything has been changing, the financial world globally. Every day the change is more rapid, even for users like me, some of whom have been here for six years, others more, some less. I'm no longer desperate about uploading content or how much I'll earn. My intention is different now, even though it's a large sum, whether it's a little or a lot, or acceptable given the current financial situation in our country. Sometimes, I feel like writing in literary communities because creating stories allows me, as I wrote a few months ago, to elevate my creativity and also create other ways to earn money through my writing.

Talking about #hive for me is about growth and learning. I rarely see people on social media anymore, especially on X, who used to talk about #hive, perhaps because they've expanded into other types of businesses, keeping #Hive in their hearts.
