Pleasant greetings to everyone and a special shout out to the ladies of hive community on their 5th hiversary. It is really a milestone worthy of celebration.

It goes without saying that the #ladiesofhive community has been an impactful, insightful and innovative community on hive so far.

Personally, this community is like a mother community to me here on the hive block chain as it was the first ever community I began writing in when I joined hive almost three years ago.

From this community. I learned how to freely express myself without shame or condemnation and without fear of being judged. The bond in this community is as real as gold and I must say that I am blessed to be among the privileged members of this community.

Like I said, my writing journey on hive started with this beautiful community. I met a lot of kind souls too in this community. Beautiful women like @luchyl, @ozd, @rukkie, @nkemakonam89, @thekittygirl and so many more awesome ladies. I have also introduced many ladies into this prestigious community too. We can only keep growing, no doubt.

The ladies here are no doubt are very kind and warm at heart. They read your stories and experiences without judgement and render kind advices were necessary. I have also read a lot of beautiful stories and experiences from other ladies on this platform and each story is a representation of the resilience and strength of women.

Even the MODs have a special ability of blending real life situations into prompt questions that are open for all ladies on the hive block chain to participate in. I always admire their prompts and strive to do my best in answering the ones that I can.

So, as the Ladies of hive community celebrates its five years anniversary on hive. I wish to dedicate two songs that speak volumes of what we carry inside of us.

We were all formerly strangers from different countries all around the globe but we became an online family that has stood the test of time. We are not just women, we are heroes. We are beautiful hems, priceless diamonds and a wonder to our world.

No doubt every lady of this community has that hero potential in them. We don't need pretty colourful capes and uniforms. Our scars are enough proof of our heroism and we are still standing strong.

The number five is the number representing Grace. I am wishing every lady of this community a prosperous fifth year celebration filled with grace. I'm also praying that the impact of this community will be seen and felt all over the world and that soon, we won't just be known as a community but we will be known as a global voice for all women out there.

The songs I am dedicating to the ladies of hive community on this auspicious moment in time are special songs that preaches inner beauty, strength and will power, which I believe are traits possessed by the ladies of this amiable community. So I'm wishing every woman to spark and shine like diamonds and fireworks. To amaze the world with our ability and silence these stone-headed cultures that seek to shut up our voices. We will make them look at us in awe.
