Hello Guys and Gals,

Not too much to say today but welcome the Monday. :) It's the start of a new week. New opportunities await for you just up ahead, new drama, but also new smiles and growth.

Let's march together forward and confidently into this new week.

But before we march into this new week, we have to announce the winner of last week's Monday challenge.

Last week the D.Buzz team challenged you to talk about your deepest desire. We got back a lot of really touching and motivational responses.

Here are some of them:

• https://d.buzz/post/vimukthi/mvtmw04tbni09qq
• https://d.buzz/post/mrnightmare89/kdxdtkfi2fut3nf

It was a very hard decision, and if I could I would send each of you 100 HIVE, but our accountants says we can't do that, we have to pick one :( .

The winner of Monday's challenge round 7 is:

Hive account@iamraincrystal

My deepest desire - freedom - any form, most esp financial. I'm working my butt off on RL work & Hive too. I miss the joy of traveling.

The challenge for today and the rules:

The Monday, August 10th challenge:

What is your origin story for HIVE?

For this week, we thought it be fun to find out what made you join the HIVE.

• Did a friend and recommend that you join (* if so give them a tag)
• Did you join back in the day when we were Steem, then made the leap to HIVE?
• Perhaps you stumbled upon this site somehow on your own?
• Was it something else more unique and crazy?

Curious minds would like to know! Let us know in a buzz that is 280 characters or fewer. How did you come to be part of the HIVE community.

If it was someone who referred you give them a tag and say hi. :)
