Hi hiveans, trust you guys are doing great here in your various places Its been quite a while since I dropped a post here on the platform, believe me it's not something I planned or wished for but it just happened like that.

Recently I've been going through a lot lately and it did affect my commitment here on Hive and my interactions with alot of people around me. I resigned from my place of work first week of December due to some personal reasons and besides I wasn't getting any benefits aside from my monthly income which is the salary and you know as a man you need more than one source income to take care of your family. Before my resignation, I've been contemplating on continuing working under someone or just establish myself because I have quites of things I can do to make money for myself like, creative designing, music, interior designs, and I'm also a mixologist. So with all this I can make something tangible for myself without any stress or going through any hardships. This was exactly what I imagined or how I imagined it to be if I eventually get to be on my own or have my own establishment but trust me it didn't work out that. At first everything was going well after my resignation from my previous place of work with the help of Hiveblog and my music skills, these two things have been helping in alot of ways I could never imagined.

But, when life problems and struggles started rushing in, it was so difficult for me to comprehend and deal with. I didn't know where to run to, I couldn't run to my parents due to the fact that I have decided not to take anything from them instead I chose to give them, at least I'm old enough to be on my own, and I've been financially stable to an extent of me being independent person. Believe me it has not been an easy journey for me lately. So many things to do, including bills and trying to figure out my purpose as a grown up man. So with all this lying on my table I've not been able to create content on the hive platform. Even some of my friends kept asking so many questions about my commitment on the platform. Going through all of this has made want to change my plans on not being a salary earner. Therefore, I've been seeing a lot of jobs opportunities and entries and I have been trying out all the ones I'm qualified for.

Taking responsibility for your personal affaires alone isn't much of a thing to do but when you start adding other people affairs and responsibilities to yours mostly your folks and your siblings, believe me it's harder than it looks. I give kudos to other parents going through all this and still standing strong. Sometimes even the things you don't plan on executing with money will just pop out from nowhere and you'll be like damn why all this? I didn't plan for this shit yeah!. That's what life entails sometimes.

If you can stand on your ground firmly and overcome all this life struggles and hardships believe me no challenges in life can bring you down easily. Thank God for Hive Blockchain, I honestly don't know how I'd have cope without it. It did helped in a lots of aspect in my affaires.

About my commitment and dedication on Hive platform, I literally surpassed the difficulties that might be an hindrance to my commitment here on hive. Lastly I'd like to add to what I have said so far that, no matter the situations we find ourselves in we should always remain focus and never let go of the vision we've dreamt about. Regardless of what we're, our status in our various society or our position in life we'll always face challenges in life in one way or the other. So I've decided never to let any this things weigh on me again. Thank God for Hive and my close friends and relatives I have been able to stand firm and overcome this difficulties.

Hive to the world.
