Interesting read! I see that you have been on steemit for some time now so I am sending you some love. Here's an upvote from me and know that the steemit community awaits!
When having a new account it can be hard to recieve many upvotes so I suggest you to try out Steemfollower as you can earn 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I also recently made this post explaining that in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.
