Thank you to all of you who have been so welcoming and wonderful! I look forward to getting to know all of you better. If you're on Twitter, say hi over there! You can find me @alanajoy!
Very inspiring! I'm actually about to have my first child and unfortunately it doesn't look like me and the mother are going to work out. I'm dedicated 1000% to being there for my daughter (just found out Monday) but I don't believe that sacrificing my happiness for the child is the best thing for either of us long term. Any advice you could give being a single mother would be greatly appreciated! Upvoted and followed
Hi there! Thank you for sharing your story with me. Kids learn how to be happy from their parents. That said I have always felt it is most important to empower yourself to live a happy life and to prioritize your happiness (with balance and integrity, not selfishness) - so your kids learn that way of living and being. Further, they also learn what love is from the relationship they grow up observing. That relationship should be healthy, fulfilling, and based on a mutual love and respect. If you feel you do not want to be together but do want to be an active parent, that is wonderful! This is 2017, not 1955. Families come in all shapes and sizes these days. Your kids will be fine, they won't know anything else!

Hi !
This is an automatic message.
According to SteemData, you have now used #introduceyourself 11 times.
You might not be aware of this, but #introduceyourself is mainly used by new accounts, to introduce themselves once. Please consider other, appropriate tags.
Define "new" account: I've been here only 3 weeks, so it's relative really. Also, the whole draw of a decentralized space is that we make the rules. I can use the tag as much as I'd like. This is the most annoying bot so far. Please consider other, appropriate ways to bot. Ugh...
Awesome! I'm curious, how did you find out about the plagiarizers? I did not know it was so prevalent here.
Some of the content I spotted was from cryptocurrency publications I follow and had read the very same articles. It was pretty blatant.
Congrats on those stats! Here's a few more cents to add :)
Aww, thank you so very much! I don't know if it's "good" or "bad", it's just been super cool earning anything at all while writing and sharing... two things I love!
I particular like the stat 'infinite, exponential fun!'. As a maths person, I'd like to see the actual graph for that haha ;)
Good idea to do a post like this. I will copy you :) Followed, upvoted and resteemed - I am just as happy here too.
Thank you so much, I'll definitely follow back!
:)
