RE: How Dispair Becomes Opportunity: The Dawn Of STEEMIT
I love it here. One of my first posts earned me around $60 which surprised me so much. I was really just using it as a place to vent and get my feelings out in a kind of anonymous way.
That post was about the decision I have made to give up my career and be a SAHM to my wee girl. It is very nerve racking for me as it will be the first time in 20 years where I'm not earning an income. However, I have hope that I can make a wee bit of money here to help out with paying the bills. Even if I don't make money though I am still happy to be here. It's the first social media site that I've truely engaged in and I'm loving it so far.
Earning $60 on one post is fantastic! I was happy to earn 60 cents. What brought a smile to my face was the last 2 lines of your comment. I feel exactly the same as you: I'm still happy to be here and (working at) engaging with others on this platform. I've never been much of a socializer up until about a year ago when I started taking my sister-in-law's dog out for walks. I now meet so many other dog walkers at the dog park and have made many new friends. I'm hoping I can do the same thing here.
Congratulations on your decision! I think that's awesome :D
