I am no longer wading in the mud....clear waters starting to flow!

Oh my, sounds pretty profound and I wasn't going to go there. On (very quick) reflection, this is exactly what Steemit has begun to do for me. BUT in this case the "mud" I am referring to is the difficulty I experienced in persuading people to join this amazing platform!

To be fair my daughter @yogidream.scapes and her fiance @thatguyjono joined fairly quickly after I introduced Steemit to them. They have been doing well on the platform and my daughter can pay for a yoga course now out of her Steemit earnings!

                            

I was also thrilled to discover one of my facebook friends, @sweetpea has been doing well on Steemit too. Her blog is lovely and well worth paying a visit.

A couple of months ago I helped my favourite staff member, @dube set up an account, and he posted twice. I gave him my son's phone to use, but it is a little old, and money for data remains a problem. We have also moved the our business premises very recently and he has been so busy helping with the move. Now we are all starting to settle I will prod him to go further!

Last, and by no means least my parents @petruska13 and @jaje joined Steemit.....at last!!! My mom and dad live with me in a granny flat off my house. They are both 69 years old and have many stories to share. Please help them by providing a hearty welcome!

       

Once again I will share this Steemit post to facebook, as it seems in v e r y  s l o w  i n c r e m e n t s people are beginning to take notice of this platform, and especially the life changing opportunities it can offer people, especially those in poorer countries. I am thrilled to see a huge delegation of very active South African Steemians and have made firm friends with many of them.

Shout out to @giantbear @awgbibb @themagus @krabgat @daisyd @hope777 @thegoldencookie  @naomi.louise @jacor @gavvet @breezin @crazymumzysa @capetown @mokluc  @shaunmza @rbfromsa I know there are many more...and many more to come!
