The experience you told me is almost similar to what I experienced.
The first time I heard about steemit I did not care about.
I underestimated.
But my close friend is persistent always tell me and mangajak I join in steemit.
Finally I follow her invitation.
After I was in the steemit community, I just realized.
It turns out in steemit I can publish all my stories and writings.
All the knowledge and experience of my life so far I can publish to everyone.
Thank you steemit ....
