I'm thrilled to unveil my brand new Hive profile picture, and I couldn't be happier with the choice I've made. After careful consideration and the community's opinion,I decided to go with Pulang Pagong 3 as my profile picture. Not only does it visually appeal to me, but it also reflects my values and beliefs within the Hive community. It features a low-poly turtle, which I think is a perfect representation of myself and my values on the Hive blockchain.

Firstly, let's talk about the concept of a low-poly design. In the world of digital art, low-poly refers to a style that uses a limited number of polygons to create a three-dimensional representation. It gives a unique and simplistic look to the artwork, often characterized by sharp edges and flat surfaces. This style resonates with me because it embodies minimalism and simplicity, two principles that I strive to incorporate into my life and work.

Now, let's delve into the symbolism behind the turtle. The turtle has long been associated with various meanings across different cultures. In many traditions, it represents longevity, wisdom, and patience. These are qualities that I admire and seek to cultivate in my interactions on the Hive blockchain. Just like the turtle, I believe in taking things slow and steady, making thoughtful contributions, and embracing the long-term vision of Hive.

Moreover, the turtle is also a symbol of protection and resilience. Its hard shell serves as a shield against external threats, reminding us to stay strong and persevere in the face of challenges. This resonates deeply with the Hive community, which has weathered its fair share of ups and downs. By choosing a turtle as my profile picture, I aim to convey my commitment to supporting and safeguarding the Hive ecosystem.

As a member of the Hive community, I believe that our profile pictures are more than just a visual representation of ourselves. They serve as a means of self-expression and a way to connect with others who share similar values and interests. By choosing a low-poly turtle, I hope to attract like-minded individuals who appreciate the beauty of simplicity, value longevity and wisdom, and are dedicated to the growth and sustainability of Hive.

I hope you like my new profile picture!
