My Name Is ... D.
A coincidence ... not always good for others!
Another coincidence
A saint is from Greece and the other comes from Bulgaria. I mean the two countries where I like to go to the sea. I like this coincidence!
A long waiting for about 15 months
Challenge name is Something About Me (SAM) with the tag: #sam-saturday.

This was a great post to know more about you and the origin of your name. By the way happy birthday for your wife.😊💕
Thank you! I'm glad you read my post.
You are welcome dear friend!
La mulţi ani! Multă sănătate, bucurii şi împlinirea tuturor dorinţelor!
Happy name day, Dan! I should have guessed! I know your real name. I will not forget now. Happy birthday to your wife! What a wonderful celebration and yes! To do it together is very special, I think.
My name Denise, was actually celebrated by my parents on May 31 every year along with my birthday in August. My other given name at baptism was Teresa, which was, in fact, my Italian Godmother. I always loved celebrating the two days.
I congratulate you on rolling over to 60! That was a hard one to make. I just rolled over to 61 a few days ago! That took me forever! I have not been as active as you lately. I fear I will never see 62. I think we are both doing well.
I meant to tell you how much your blogging/posting has really improved. You have really made it so engaging and fun to read. It is always interesting and I absolutely love walking along with you as you point out pieces of history or art. Thank you! Thank you so much!

Tip!
Multumesc/Thank you! Thank you for the effort made to tell me this in Romanian, by the name day.
How beautiful, you made a confession about your name and you fit into the SAM rules. Thank you again! I want to say I like both your names: Denise and Teresa!
Yes, it was hard to get to 60. I saw that you got to 61 and congratulate you. It is important to know the criteria that increase the reputation, then it would be easier to grow. There are many who have come to Steemit long after me and have already outgrown (eg @ericah). They had an activity that more closely matched the requirements of the algorithm that established the reputation. As far as I know, the main engine of growth is votes from members with a higher reputation than you. The higher the reputation and the stronger votes, the higher your reputation will grow. I'm sure you'll grow up pretty fast, much faster than I do.
Not really. To be honest, most of my votes come from small people, one of the reasons it took me a long time, although, I am not complaining. Although that is true about the main growth engine, some have bought votes and that will also increase your reputation as they have a high reputation also.
So, I am not so impressed as I once was before all the vote buying. It makes it hard when I see a spotlight on the most votes and the person has 2000 Well, most of those are bought votes. Is this fair? I say no. I have no idea how they are doing things anymore. I just do my thing and be happy. It has served me well and I do not have to worry about vote for vote or anything like that.
Do I sound bitter? I'm not. I just decided that this should be fun, not a job or a chore. Then it is no fun anymore. So, it is more relaxed and better for me. :) I do like it here.
Yes, of course you have right! You cannot complain, you are very loved here by true people, in flesh and bones ... not by robots!
I did not talk about robots ... I talked about ambitious people! People who know what to do and who ... they do. I mean many posts, comments, reblogs ... etc.
They are the winners in all competitions.
You do not approach Steemit as a competition, not me (but once stimulated by the success of others and I wonder if I can not, Capricorn mentality).
Great post, Dan...or Dumitru. 🙂
Happy birthday to your wife and happy name's day to you!
Indeed, it was a hard day since you got presents. 😏
You only have two saints protecting you, and one after the other. My second name is Ioana so you can imagine how "delighted" my friend are...all year long. 😅
Thank you very much! Ioana is a beautiful name. Now I learned it's celebrating several times in a year. I think your friends don't know all the days when they have to bring you presents.
Well, I made sure they know. 😂
This is very good. Congratulations!
Happy Birthday to your wife and Happy Name Day to you! And huge congratulations on your 60 rep! It feels great, doesn't it? What an eventful day for you!
Your coincidences are all quite delightful! And so is your SAM post!
Thank you very much, Melinda! Yes, there were some nice coincidences.

Happy belated name day and happy belated bday to your wife!
I am sorry for being late to congratulate you.
It is so nice to have a special day together. And I wish you many more. 😀
Oh, thank you! You're very kind. Let's hope for a good future.
In France we rarely celebrate the name day, well someone can eventually tell (me) bonne fête Barbara , but it goes not further than that ^_^ No gifts or not a special occasion to celebrate... ;-)
My birthday is the same day than my Darling, this is not really a blessing to be born the same day in term of celebration for others, but it is something funny for us to be born on the same day (only not the same year, he is 3 years younger than me)
it seems I have just given a Something About Me ;-)
I'm happy to learn your real name in this SAM post =)) Like many others, I thought it was Dan ! So this is a real interesting fact about you I have learnt here =))
and I'm also happy for you reaching the 60 rep, I can remember I was thrilled reaching this number, seems like a milestone, and you are right, it slows down a lot after that, but this is not so really important because from 60 it shows a real engagement on the Steem blockchain I think... ;-)
Happy belated birthday to your wife and nameday to you ! ^_^![swco6q7xzr.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://img.esteem.ws/swco6q7xzr.png)
Thank you very mach for wishes and for SAM. I have to come here with a SAM ... and I'm younger with two years!
