What a heartwarming surprise and confirmation I received from the Hive!

In the morning I was guided to network as a next step on my path. The next thing on my actual 'to-do' list was to post here in the Hive, but I felt compelled to just engage with you all and used up all of my time doing so. I never did get to post. 


Later in the day I came back to Hive. My post from the day before,  [Telling Myself A New Story About Life](https://peakd.com/@aprils/telling-myself-a-new-story-about-life), received an overwhelming amount of support from the Hive, especially for a newbie like me! 

I am still shocked and really not sure how it happened. 

I know there are many to thank though! I tried going to individual pages, but it doesn't appear that I can direct message you all. 

I really cannot explain in words what this confirmation means to me. It's magical!
