WOW 2017! #introduceyourself

Hey everyone!

2017 has been a crazy year so far!  I get the impression I'm not the only one who feels this way either.  

Mandela Effect, Clif High, Bitcoin

On the first day of January I learned about the Mandella Effect.  If you don't know what that is, there's tons of good videos on YouTube that explain it.  I saw a post on facebook about a movie where comedic actor Sinbad played a genie.  I remembered the movie fondly and clicked the link to discover this movie never existed.  This sent me down a YouTube rabbit hole, the likes of which I haven't ventured since my college days.  Around this time, someone in my life introduced me to Clif High and his webbot, and it's weird because to this day I can't recall who it was that turned me onto Clif.  I've asked everyone I was talking to in my life around that time, and they all claim it wasn't them.  This somehow lead me into looking into Bitcoin, which I recall learning about in 2010 and thinking the technology was impressive.  I quickly got into investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and learning about Charting and Trading.  I think Blockchain technology will enter into and change ever facet of human life.  I think this movement is about more then money or getting rich, I think it is about liberating the people on this planet, and restoring the wealth to the people.  I hope to see the day when our governments move onto the blockchain and we have some form of a cryptocracy governing us.  

Educator and Medical Cannabis Patient

A little more about me.  I'm a male in my 30's, I work as a teacher/tutor in the education system, as well as privately.  I am a medical cannabis patient and will be documenting my experience with the medical cannabis pilot program in my state.  I have an instagram with photos of many of the cannabis products I've tried, you can check out @ instagram.com/gradybrownmm.  I suffer from an Epileptic condition and have used cannabis for over 14 years as a medicine, and have been a part of my states pilot program for medical cannabis since October 2016.

Yoga Practice

Since I turned 30 I've been a lot more focused on my health.  I got into Yoga a couple years ago to help with my back and found that I got a lot more out of it.  It helped give me an increased peace of mind, less mental chatter, and a greater ability to process emotions.  

Going Vegan

Yoga wasn't new to 2017, but I did decide to give up meat 13 weeks ago and haven't looked back.  I've even decided to double down and go Vegan.  Since giving up meat I have more energy, I feel less physical pain, I feel stronger.  I gave up drinking coffee as a morning necessity since giving up meat.  

Well that's a little intro about me and some of the things that have been of interest to me in 2017.  These are some of the things I'd like to post about and read about.  I'm really excited about Steem, Bitcoin, Blockchain, and this whole digital revolution.  Till next time
