Investigating about cryptocurrencies, I saw a video about steemit, but since it was in English I did not pay attention, until my husband told me that there was a section in Spanish, but that I had to publish only quality topics. With great fear I opened my account and started to see that there was a bit of everything. So I took off the fear and I was learning, thank God I have found people who have supported me a lot and here I am, grateful to coincide in this space-time with beings inspired to improve and share, to know in depth stories that I never thought that exist, here I can feel freedom to express without being judged as in other social networks, I got excited every day when I learn new things, for example how to make a more presentable publication. Have I been disappointed? Yes, many times, but something happens and I continue Definitely yes my life has changed a lot, in the early morning I wake up with something to write and share, although there are many young people and a lot of creativity I have managed to feel comfortable even if I do not win a contest or do not win much with my post. Although I would like to grow because I want to change my lifestyle, I have been locked in a business for 6 years and I also need physical freedom. I'm taking steps and I'm grateful to grow up in Steemit. I know I will not win the contest, I'm sorry to ask for votes, but I like to participate! Thanks a lot @futurethinker! Be happy!
