Untitled - but PLEASE READ and come to a debate

Lately, words like “thanks” and gratitude have lost power of expression for me, I have too much thanks to give and my feeling of gratitude is to big to express in such little words.
But the word I am focusing on today is another.

“TRUST” is the special word today and I am trying to explain it from my experience (small) to the masses way of experiencing it. And of course, how blockchain teaches us to trust in a new way.

TRUST- From my perspective

I modestly have to admit to a unique personality with sets of qualities and flaws that could be judged both ways.
Personally, I consider that every human trade can be valued or judged at the same time.
For example

my sensibility - can be a quality valued for the empathy I have towards other people, and how I restlessly try to help others. I am not able to learn from books, and I use my sensibility to learn from people all the time. I get involved, I draw inspiration and I learn a lot from other perspectives.
But my sensibility can also be a source of defocus, it can get me astray from my personal path, it can make me forget that I have to do good first for myself in order to grow and be capable to help others. I get so involved in people's problems, and I end up energy drained, so exhausted, to the point that is harmful to myself.

My inconsistency - I was unable for a long time to be successful, because one day I feel the urge to paint in a style, the next day I wish to design and maybe a few days after I write poetry. The systems that determined my value until now, could not put a tag on me , could not put me in a box and measure my worth.
But let’s look at it from another perspective. I always put 100% no matter what I work at, I always do things only for myself, for the joy, love , growth and peace the process brings to me.
My inconsistent way shaped my mind to work in a unique way, allowing me to make connections between apparently unfitting pieces of the puzzle that I make fit in an unexpected way.

My refusal to adapt - As an artist , galleries have asked from me to stick to a style, theme and subject matter, in a way - to make a brand from my name, to easily be recognized and sold to collectors.
As a freelance, a market determined what I have to create, how I have to create and what my final “product” should be. No matter how hard I tried to explain that my best is more than what they ask from me, I was associated to the “suffering artist” stigma, and I was repeatedly hurt.

My critical nature - I’ve had the luck to be educated in an ex-communist country, where I had very critical teachers, with grate expectancy, this has transformed me to be critical too. I am critical with myself and this helps me rich a level of quality in my work, but also I made a custom to put myself down harder than anyone else could, this has also made me fear ridicule and wrong to the point of passivity and numbness.

I could go on and on to demonstrate that every flaw that I have could be valued and every quality could be judged and punished, but I have to stop because this serves my point.

You may wonder by now, what does all this has to do with “GRATITUDE” or “TRUST”

Blockchain and specially applications like, steemit redefine the value system, in a way that everyone's efforts are transparent, easy to be judged or valued. Automatically this transparency invites a new way of trust.
From an individual perspective, since I joined steemit all my effort has been reworded, there are people here that know my effort, trust my path to success ( more than I was ever capable to). There are people here that expect greatness from me, and after seeing my efforts, trust that I can deliver.
This trust makes my motivation grater than ever, I feel responsible in the most beautiful way, responsible towards the expectancy, responsible towards my potential.

Enough about me - LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WORLD

I can explain this from so many angles - business and trade would be the easiest, well being, peace, health care, economy and politics - but I am just the artist. Remember?

So let’s try to get into - RETAIL , PRODUCTION, BUSINESS - a bit, because our modern society already made us and our efforts into products with price tag, production date and expiration date. - if you don’t believe me check your ID

So, until now we had to trust a sort of unreliable “tradition” or history

Burberry (first retail brand that came to mind), we are paying more for trench coats,, because they advertise this way - “Venerable British brand founded in 1856 known for its trench coats, cashmere scarves & iconic check.”
This asks from us to believe that they produce the same quality for the same needs as they did in 1856.
Established in 1856 by Thomas Burberry, originally focusing on the development of outdoor attire
First of its kind fabric called Gabardine, which is completely breathable and waterproof, exclusively made for the brand.
The first shop opened in the Haymarket, London, in 1891. Burberry was an independent family-controlled company
Its coats were worn in the trenches during the First World War by British soldiers
Burberry became so much a part of British culture that Queen Elizabeth II and the Prince of Wales have granted the company Royal Warrants.

So far, so good but how much of this “tradition” is relevant to the price tag today? how is the production now? What quality they offer now? What kind of management they have today? What kind of culture they represent today?
I will spare you a big read, but I can assure you, the value is not the same as the advert …

So how is Blockchain repairing our trust and reinventing, production , management, retail, trade, business.
The same way - transparency for present moment actions within a company.

So if I wanna buy a product, that is produced with care and attention and cultural value. I don’t go to a big brand that mass produce in so many countries and cannot properly control and supervise each product’s quality, each worker’s reword,each need served, each value they represent.
I go to a family or community -controlled company instead!!!

Does steemit allow that? - I think it does, and I will try!!!
I think that through transparent communication I can find a worthy community that can produce some of my designs knowing my real intentions for that design and allowing me to see how every member of that community is reworded for their effort, and how much care and attention to detail and quality they address in the production process.

STANDARD OF LIVING - WELLBEING - HEALTHCARE - PEACE

We are social beings and nurturing and helping each other comes naturally to us, but in the same time we are suspicious and alert towards the unknown, towards the desceptable, and harmful situations.
So let me ask you. How many times have you seen a charity initiative and suspected it to be a frod.
When that happens to me I scroll down and think that if I put effort in that, my effort would be misused and taken advantage by in wrong ways, so I resume to restraint

But what if we could all trust ?

It is happening already - thank god - not very religious but I will correct that phrase:

THANK BLOCKCHAIN

“ I would love to add so much more to this post but I am saving you from a bigger read :)))

This post will probably continue in the comment section where I want it to be transformed into a constructive debate - hopefully :D “
