RE: Steps of Healing #1: My Symbol
Thank you for the kind words and encouragement.
It is also strange how a bad or unloving experience with one person will cause us to assume the worst about other people who share almost nothing in common with that first person.
I have been really motivated by how affirming the Steemit community has been when people decide to step out into vulnerable territory.
Yeah, once we have a default expectation, it's hard to give others the benefit of the doubt.
Yes! There are some amazing people on here! Maybe it's because the kind of people drawn to cryptocurrency and the transparent nature of open ledgers are also drawn to that same transparency in others. Either way, so glad to have found this place!
Oh man, I love that idea! I never thought about it like that, but there does seem to be a correlation. The same people who have come to realize that the traditional social model of puffery has left them feeling empty also tend to see the flaws in other traditional systems.
So well said!
