BACK TO MY BLOG.

Hey Guys! I wish to announce my wake up call to my blogging hobby.
Someone will be surprised, but please, don't be ' to everything, decision, action...there is a reason.' So, sit back and enjoy my story.

It is with humility and a great joy that I write this. Life has really thought me a lot and truly, I affirm to the saying that 'life is in stages' ,as we grow, we learn.
I welcome you friends to my blog, My Great Steemians!

I have been away from this platform for 8months. Ah! Sad right?
Yes, it's true, a whole long 8months. That I have been away does not mean I haven't been coming in, once in a while. Yes, I have been seeing, reading and commenting on people's posts and blogs( the much I can), just that I haven't been participating in contests or written any diary games. Though intentional.

For sometime now, I have been contemplating resuming Steeming (blogging) again. I could remember the passion/ zeal when I first got registered to Steemit. I think it can be resurrected once again.
I want to thank God it's a new month and I believe this month of May is special. I will tell you why I said so.

When I came in contact with Steem, it was a time of little leisure ( I know what I mean). It was a blessing because it gave me an opportunity to express and explore my hidden tallent/ and thoughts. I engaged in so many contests even diary games and all sorts. But at a time I got discouraged due to certain issues especially not getting good votes.

Not minding how my schedules are;
I'm a Teacher,
... a wife
...a mother
...a chef: you can call me a Caterer because I run a catering services.
...a business woman that oversees a snacks shop too. So, you see, one cannot be this busy, finds time to also blog, writes and will not be rewarded with satisfactory votes at each payout. Truth be told, it's discouraging!

Also, months ago, some notable Steemians started withdrawing, as in powering down. Some strong Steemians I know and have come to admire... believe me, I had doubts and a cold feet is not good for business you know. I decided to stay away and monitor how things will unfold considering reasons some of them gave (me) for withdrawing and other reasons which I was struggling with.

Well, it has been a long break; a very long one at that which I know I must have missed many interesting contests, but I won't count my lost. I will only look towards the goal and being a better Steemian because I have found out the truth.

My daily devotional, on 1st of May, talks on "Holding on To The Truth". The Bible text is 1 Thessalonians 2:11-14. I took notice of 12-14. Holding on to the truth which I once received and believed. Then, the complimentary talked about 'Customer Loyalty'.
It refers to a state where a customer is dedicated to certain brand or product. It is being committed to a course, brand, company, not minding any factor ...them knowing they are worthy of your trust, vice versa, even in trying times.
In other words, in my time of observation, I have found out that Steemit...
...has upheld its name: (trusted blogging site).
... is consistent with votes no matter how small which I trust will get better.
... requires my patience in all ramifications...
...etc.
Therefore,

I have come to stay and blog to my satisfaction.

I want to appreciate few of my friends who are still Steeming very hot even in the trying times...

• @ngoenyi - I have really inspired me. And I have been following your blogs and episodes... Your building, health is wealth episodes and I say 'CONGRATULATIONS!'
• @ruthjoe - you don't know how much I admire you. Your movie reviews... I love you babe just that you refused to come and give me some of those movies for free.
• @mesola - my dear friend, you have stayed true to this platform... cashing out here and there! I love your creative nature. Please make another of that article( pen, pencil, toothbrush) holder you created...for me.
• @goodybest - I love your contest topics. Always creative and interesting.
• @udyliciouz - I enjoy your language lessons and super entries...
  ...If I keep mentioning them, you will get bored.

Even though I wasn't pronounced in contests, I was silently engaging in other people's entries and voting when I can. I never knew how much the little effort I put in meant till @steemcurator03 voted on my engagement of a contest in @steem4nigeria with 0.63 vote.

Someone will say, '...but it's nothing', it may be small but what 'wow' me is the recognition. It's so overwhelming. Meaning if I put in more effort with meaningful post, I will get more votes, right? It also mean , good engagement will definitely be noticed.

I want to say a big " WELCOME BACK TO ME, MYSELF AND I" to Steemit platform!

"Welcome Back on Board" to Steeming hot!

I look forward to a better votes, blogging this time, and making many more friends.

Long live Steemians!
Long live Nigeria!
Long live Steemit!
