My adjustments here @steemit on my experience as a Steemian!
Hello SteemianZ!
**When I met Steemit, it was such a journey. I've found myself lost and eager to learn on how should it be. Everything I do has to be consulted to my mentor @keshawn or @claudene, the people who introduced steemit to me. It was a such an interesting experience. I get to post some of my interests and what I normally do as a person. I don't hide and I don't have to be someone else! **
It's still me!
**Then I was told into joining some contest and yes I did! I have joined photography which I'm not really a pro. But still I took the chance hoping to gain something I could used in the future. Then @claudene asked me to join a Selfie contest @papa-pepper which I did. The experience was truly amazing. It's a day to day contest wherein you have to post a selfie of yourself with a particular requirement each day. The contest is very fun and at the same challenging. There were times when I want to quit because I'm taking hard time in making a challenge but I survived. I was not eliminated, but we won! We? We, because there were 10 winners in the end. Why? Our organizer @papa-pepper was kind enough to think was is best to be done. It was the time when the rise of SBD was soaring high that everybody decided for a split if prize. It was his decision which was also agreed by everyone. How much!? 1280 which was split into 10 steemian, making everyone earned 128 SBD's each. That much, yes!! At that time the sbd rised up to $17..It was really amazing! Everybody was very happy and celebrating! Except me.. **
Why?
** We traded to @poloniex which we never knew having issues everytime there is a soaring trade in cryptocurrency. Yes, I was scammed! I let my brother @keshawn to have my sbd traded on @poloniex. It was 141 sbd's all in all which I transferred and was traded there but sadly it was frozen! Up to now we have no update from them. It's so unfair! It was hardly earned. I never cheated on the contest and I posted @steemit to earn from curations. I was so excited then thinking this amount could be of great help in finishing my house. I have planned to buy doors and have my windows installed from the prize I have, but how? My sbd's were nowhere to be found. I was very helpless that time. The nights left me sleepless! I cannot contain the feeling of being cheated and disappointed! I was such a loser this time. My husband just keep telling me to wait and just relax thinking that maybe there's just some system error, but we were wrong. It's a scam! I've read posts regarding the same experience and this made me realize I was not alone. There were many of us who were scammed by @poloniex. **
I can't linger on the fact that it's happened. It's an experience which could make me standing still. I will still be on @steemit! I need to let go of what I feel. I posted about what happened and talked people on discord.
**Then I continue steeming. I still posted the way I was. I made it an accountable experience. Perhaps it's not my day. It's not for me. That's what I put in mind. That how I programmed my mind to adjust on my experience. I cannot blame anybody. I was thinking if I followed suggestions by @papa-pepper to power up, it would have been great. But it's done! What left is a lesson learned. **
** As the days passed, I'm still here moving..reading inspirations and adjusting.. I need to adjust and continue in my journey. Steemit is still there. So I continued posting my interests and likes.
December had been so great! Inspite I lost my SBD's but I still earned something out of my simple posts. Yes I earned a lot with the greater value of sbd as of this time. Although I'm earning 3 sbd a day or less, I manage to earn something. But this time @keshawn traded it to @bittrex and it was fine. I had money spent on the holiday season from steemit! Yes, I was earning. Inspite of what happened, I was earning from my posts. I have given gifts to my family especially to my husband and my kids. Aside from that I also given presents to my nieces and nephews during our reunion. And of course my beloved mother also have a gift from me.. It's such nice feeling knowing you can still make people happy although you were down for a while. Yes I was really down that time but I've adjustments to fulfill myself as a person. **
I cannot be angry but rather be happy.
I can cry but I can chose to laugh.
I am loved and I can show love all the time..
I have God to guide me to my journey.. And I will go to where He leads me to...
** This is my simple entry for @surpassinggoogle contest #untalented-adjustments. I'm so happy that Sir Terry had always been there give inspiration especially to people who were down. He managed to pick them up and show how to smile and continue playing life! He is always been my model. I usually join his contests and read posts to enhance my learning. I truly learned a lot from reading his post. He was just a true inspiration! **
A human of great heart!
Thank you Sir!
