Thanks for posting that.
I understand what @lifeinspired is saying and have shared that thought as well.
I'm hoping that with consistency, work and time, i can grow my blog here.
I think people come to steemit seeing the trending section and expect to be there within a week (me included).
But it is true that it is discouraging to see some post that are very well written and thought out, getting left in the wind by one/two liners from some of the big accounts.
Anyways, I'm steeming on for the moment, thanks for the encouragement from your comment!
