Steem Creators Conference - Building Community Can Literally Change Our Lives PLUS 34 photos from Steemfest2!!

in #steemcreators7 years ago (edited)

Building community in the Steem world is an incredibly powerful move.
It is fun to come together in co-creation,
and give birth to the world we want to experience.
We are doing it everyday through our interactions with one another,
with the attitudes we each bring to the table,
and how we invest our energy together on this platform.



Being mainly in the realms of the artistic world here on Steemit,
and running a collaborative initiative,
I am blessed to connect with some amazing souls.
My focus is on the expression of passion, support, raising each other up,
and a heightened expression of love.
The people I have met here, especially in the artistic realms,
are creating together a soulful experience,
sharing their hearts and a loving bond
that only a soul family can do.



I never get caught up in drama on Steemit,
I don't tune in to any darker side of disconnection --
which is also likely to happen when a large mix of
so many random people come together.
I am gratefully often oblivious to any negativity that may happen here,
and am even surprised when I hear that such a world exists on Steemit,
as I focus with my people on co-creation and uplifting one another.
We truly are building some very powerful and potent,
heartfelt connections.



Twice now, at Steemfest 1  in Amsterdam and Steemfest 2 in Lisbon, Portugal
(where all these pictures were taken),
we have come from all over the world to experience what it feels like to
be in each others presence.



An incredible thing happened both times,
whereby the feelings of joyful communion
flooded in and awakened another layer of once-dormant feelings inside us.
It was as if we remembered our ancient connections,
and were receiving the blessing of reactivation.



I was personally astounded to feel the light of this community shining so brightly.
Together we felt like a family, a reunion of light workers finding each other again.



There was non-stop discovery, questions, laughter, and heartfelt hugs,
as we remembered each other again after being spread so distant all over the world.



Now once again, in less than a week,
we will partake in the opportunity to reconnect.

STEEM CREATORS CONFERENCE
April 13-15, 2018  
Tuscany Suites & Casinos  
255 E Flamingo Rd,
Las Vegas, NV 89169, USA



Though this is not Steemfest,
it is a gathering of like minded people.
It is holding space for brilliant minds and loving hearts to come together.



Those of us making our attendance at the Steem Creators Conference a priority,
will be receiving another chance to feel the love in the presence of our people.



We will make a difference in each other's lives,
Potentially connect with greater long-term purpose,
and to hug one another again.



Who knows what will come of such an exciting opportunity.
Who knows who we will meet,
what bonds will be solidified,
and what projects will be ignited.



OHHHHHH THE EXCITING POTENTIAL!!!



I believe the more we reach out to each other,
the more we make it a priority to give what we have to each other,
and the more wholly we engage the potential,
the more valuable our experience will be.




I have no doubt that we will gain,
not only in the short term, but in the long run as well.
We will continue to strongly build a community of people
working toward common purpose in changing the world on many levels,
and opening the potential for creating a strong, global, loving community
like none of us have experienced before.



After attending Steemfest 1 and Steemfest 2,
I realize that Steem can really be the medium--the network--
that connects us all again.



It is very obvious to me that it is no coincidence we have met
or will meet in Vegas.
I will be taking every opportunity to lean into this community
and to amplify those bonds we can feel even from a distance.



This conference is dirt cheap - you can go for all 3 days for only $99.
It will be totally worth the investment,
and I am certain we will not only have no regrets about going,
but will be overjoyed that we did.



Anyone who has attended Steemfest,
who has shown up to meet-ups around the world,
who has taken the opportunity to engage the helpful, positive, high-vibes can tell you...

we are investing in our future in ways that we cannot even right now imagine.
Brilliant minds, open hearts, positive attitudes..
WIN WIN WIN!!!



If you don't go, you won't know.
You'll have to sit back and watch, living vicariously through our excitement.



Where there is a will, there is a way.
Find your way to Vegas.
It may change your life!
It's only the beginning!

As I was preparing this post, I got lost in the Steemfest vortex of pictures.  
(You can see that I am in desperate need of a new camera
as the quality of many of these photos are not what they could be,  
Read my
camera prayer to the Universe here.)

OH MY!!! What an amazing time we had.  Imagine...this is only a taste!  
I hope it whets your appetite and inspires you to get your butt to Vegas with us!

I desire to go to the Steem Creators conference this weekend but it looks like I'll be attending in spirit this time. At least now I know that this awesome community of creators exist. I definitely want to get connected to y'all before and after the conference.

I am an artist and a dreamer of a better world. I believe community is the cure for most of our human problems. The Steem community is great. It's already changed my life. I'm renewed in my inspiration to do the work I'm called to do.

Say hi to our #dynamicsteemians founder, @dynamicgreentk for me :)
