Faith and trust is what makes this world go 'round.

Faith. It doesn't make sense, but it builds miracles.

We have all trusted somebody, sometime in our life. Whether it is your parents, your girlfriend, your teacher, your friend, or someone over the internet.

If there was no trust or faith in this world, then men cannot and will not coexist with each other. Faith is what makes business deals happen, faith is what makes good leaders. Faith is everything.

We, as people of Steemit, Need to have faith in each other.

This means no hatespeech, no accusations without proof, and no jealousy and envy.

Why in the world would you think that Ned and Dan are trying to scam us? Why in the world would you think that Steem is a ponzi, or an elaborate pyramid scheme?

Why do you think that the guy who is helping another homeless guy is scamming the community with the Sob story?

Why do you think all Steem whales are shitheads and only upvotes their own alts?

The answer is very simple. A lack of faith.

We Steem people have to come together and be a tight knit community. We don't want OUR project to fall apart, and be divided like other cryptocurrencies(Ethereum). We need to know that almost all of us are all good, decent people. We are all Steemians.

I understand that it is hard to have faith in others over the internet. I sometimes have that problem too. But after all, we are destined to be here together. And there is no excuse for calling someone a scammer with no proof; nor is there any good reason to be jealous of others achievements, and write up hatespeech about it.

We also need to have faith in the early adopters, often whales as well, to make good decisions. We need to have faith in THEM to have good judgment. If they misbehave, fine. Call them out on it. But don't do it without proof, just because they didn't upvote your post.

But most importantly, we need to have faith in the founders. After all, it is THEM who brought us this very platform that we all can benefit from. If it wasn't them, who else would have come up with a brilliant idea like Steemit?

This is a very simple issue. Either we correct ourselves in the way we behave, or the whole community falls apart. It's up to us to make the call.

I have faith us all to make the right choice, and take Steem to the next level.
