My favorite possession - STEEM

Physically, it's a laptop computer that has been with me since STEEM. It's an old DELL Latitude E6230 I had in possession for years and it's still going strong. Despite I had other newer laptop, but it's still one of my favorite when I go down for real business. Partly I like the small size of it, and it's efficiency. It's not good for gaming at all, but why would I play games with a laptop?

If you think, it's a piece of equipment that I possessed that put me up here and write this article? Then you're wrong. It's the knowledge Steem gave me. It's the little piece of sticker ON that laptop that kept me going. It's #steem #blockchain itself gave me a new perception of what social media freedom is. I don't wanna talk about what happened recently with the hard fork, it's an ugly truth and let that path continue to work with the other blockchain, and let recall what #steem gave me.

Steem gave me knowledge. Knowing what VALUE is. Before Steem, the only think I know is BTC, and it's needed mining equipment and expensive electricity bill to obtain a piece of coin. Since I started to use #steem, mining can be so many different way. Can be a witness, can be a content creator, can be an online seller, can be a curator, what blows my mind, even putting an upvote, just like hitting the LIKE button will generate token!

Not only #steem gave me the opportunity to conduct talks to the adults, it's also challenging to talk to junior. To train the young ones to have blogging habits. Especially needed to guide the adults on how to effectively train their children to have a good writing habits and also awareness of online privacy and security if they choose to share.

This plague for example, is one of my favorite thing. To others, it's just a piece of paper. To me, it's a sort of achievement. Achieve to bring the knowledge to these people, to understand the what #steem #blockchain is.

To end this article with a group photo. #steem had brought me many fond memories, my @steemit is the first front end I have came across, back then it was still in beta. We have a Steem account, and it's one of my most cherish thing so far. #steem has the memory of the past 3 years of my life, and I'm hoping to have more in here. Equipment can expire, but the knowledge doesn't. Having #steem in my, is my favorite possession, and in future when I look back, I can proudly tell myself, what a blast!
