You totally should do a 'My Curie Story' post @lazarus-wist. Just remember to use the two tags -

mycuriestory + curie

That way the post should get seen by someone in the guild. No guarantee it would get a curie vote but at the least some curators would probably give it some love :-)

Staying motivated on this platform can be tough at times but curie really made me feel that there is a future here worth striving for.

Exactly how I felt when I was new and still feel now sometimes. Community is what it's all about on steemit.

Thanks for reading and I'm glad you digged the poetry :-)
