Hello friend
Welcome is used to show appreciation, welcome guests, after getting a thank you and more as you mentioned here. You shared how you love the gesture showing beautiful pictures too. The new year is upon us and I'm glad you have good plans like health goals and living you life a day at a time while endeavouring to build your steem power and recruit newbies on steemit while mentoring them. Success in the challenge as I root for your wins, cheers
