RE: Steemit Relationship: Clearing the air. (200+sbd & 10,000sp delegation challenge!)
@itchykitten .. hey man, hope you've had a great week with the family and girlfriend! Hmmm now let me think about my relationship with Steemit. I'm loving my time here so far, I was kind of getting bored with some of the stale perceptions that seem to pervade other areas of social media and so Steemit has been a breath of fresh air. It's given me hope of a potential future where a technologically savy populace wrestle financial control away from the banking institutions and create their own self-sustaining monetary system .. I can dream can't I? lol.
I enjoy the exchange of ideas and concepts I've never thought about or considered, I'm also really grateful to have a platform to share my own thoughts and writing. Some of the derivative video shares and vacuous posts can be a little annoying, but I'm not here to judge so just move along quickly. The main struggle I'm having is finding a work, life, Steem writing, Steem community balance but it's all a learning curve so that's cool.
Some of the me me me aspects can be a little offputting as can the people that comment on your post as a way to simply ask you to upvote/follow them .. especially when they haven't bothered to read your own words, I had one within two seconds of posting the other day! I've heard of speed reading but that's got to be a world record! lol Mostly I'm enjoying the diversity of opinion and lifestyles, and chatting with dudes like yourself of course!!
Really I'm just here doing my own thing and sharing my thoughts and being humbled at the fact people have taken time out of their busy days to read my words. I have no expectations so I'm just going to continue following my own path, helping when I can, embracing my nonconformity and simply going with the flow and taking it as it comes. My mention goes to @tremendospercy A top man who gives far more than he takes and who understands the beautiful symbiotic nature of this platform. Great post (as always) by the way! :D
That's really kind of you to say so and I'm flattered for even getting mentioned.
You're a great writer along with many here who are underappreciated or yet undiscovered.
Thanks for the mention.
@tremendospercy No worries my friend, credit where it's due. Thank you for saying so, I'm just going to continue doing my own thing and being grateful for having a platform to write on.
