I think it's been a year since I only post short content on here. No time to make long posts anymore. Like, come on, I have things to do rather than spend all my time on here like I used to. 😆 The point is, I'm still here despite everything going on in my life. This post is in response to the writing contest theme of ["What Keeps You Here on Hive?"](https://ecency.com/hive-197685/@indiaunited/indiaunited-new-contest-and-last-3cb0ba2bfe7b2?referral=artgirl)

# What I used to do on Hive I used to just post stuff on here to earn money. That's the only reason I joined Steemit and then the hardfork happened and Hive came to be. People then suddenly got all abt community and shizz that they started looking down on people who were here for the main reason it was created. HIVE crypto, like STEEM, was a source of moolah. That's the only reason people join sites like this. (Just look at all the whales who upvote and auto-upvote their own friends and such even if their posts are just short and not even really quality articles.) When I was posting quality long posts I enjoyed the experience of being curated and upvoted and appreciated that way. Sadly those days are gone, and then of course so many things in life happened that eventually I was just meh. There was a time I stopped posting here because I just didn't feel like writing anything anymore. If I wasn't earning much over my quality posts then what's the point of posting anything, right? The main purpose of being here isn't being met so I joined another crypto writing site and wrote a lot there. Too bad it already closed down after a few yrs. 😂

# Why am I still here then? Back in [Lent 2023](https://ecency.com/hive-188409/@artgirl/amazing-2023-part-2-road?referral=artgirl) I had a [spiritual renewal](https://ecency.com/hive-188409/@artgirl/amazing-2023-discover-what-a?referral=artgirl). That's the time my priorities in life totally changed. Life is not all about money anymore. I finally had God in my mind and my life. Whoa. Who would have thought I'd have quite a life experience. And because of that, I'm still here for the people and not the money anymore. Am not interacting that much tho because I always feel like I have so little time and so many things to do. But I make sure to share a quick post once or twice a day when I can and then respond to comments. People need to see that God cares for each one of us, He loves everyone. And so if you check all my posts since that time, well I hope it helps you in any way. God bless you for reading this. 🙏
