[REPOST] My very first post published on steemit one year ago. ¿Has something changed on the platform?
Or is there something different in my writing style since then?
Or in the consistency of my words and way of thinking?
Or in my expectations about usual human behavior?
Or how egalitarian shared rewards should be?
Or what a real quality content author is?
Or if this meant something at all?
Yeah! ¡You Tell Me!
This is a revamped repost of my ancient content in steemit. As a matter of fact, the first post I did when I signed up & joined steemit. Which for that time, gathered the amazing figures of 5 votes, $0.00 earnings, scarcely 2 comments and only 14 views in its entire lifetime.
¡Yummy & Encouraging! ¿Right?
Well, I guess it is just matter of optics, perspectives and righteous clear expectations. Logical thinking never seems to be too much optimistic when you are actually wearing your Hat Of The Experience. In fact, on these new things online there is no lucky rabbit's foot, four leaf clovers or lucky horse's shoe which helps out.
Therefore, I just decided to wear my diving suit, fill my oxygen tank to the max and dive to the bottom of my fish kettle to find and rescue from oblivion my very first pearl of original & quality content that I planted here on the platform a year ago. And then, share it again today one more time.
And since not only did I ever wonder if a REPOST would be of some value to the community and if it would be worth a try as my good friend @tarazkp asked himself too a couple of weeks ago. I think I will do it right away so that you can judge for yourselves. }:)
With nothing more to add. "The Ancient Lost Pearl" of @por500bolos

¡Steem, Hopes, Faith & Moola in the 'Digital Society' of Century XXI!
¡Yeah! I bet we all may well be here cause undoubtedly seems like everyone these days is just short of.. Do$h.
M.V.P. ¡The Lean Startup! ¡Product Liability! Proof of Concept - Marketing Strategies - Trade Test Methods - Return of Investment - Entrepreneurship - Startups World.
"A business idea will always be a business idea. Even more booming if these are previously tested, experienced & supported across the streets (or through The Information Superhighway) when they stir & shake The Faith."
Well folks, or ¿should I say 'dear steemians'? This is my first post here in a crappy attempt to introduce myself to this (one more time) promising community. You rightly might say I've actually already had a handful of previous experiences across all these so called newer Social Networks Which Pay & Share Revenues With Their Userbase. Yes! because their 'original' content and formidable storyteller skillz.
Among a few, just to name one, the most recent; TSU.. ¿Ring a bell?
Well yeah, ok, I was a former Tsuvian for around two years. Not much prolific if I must say the truth. Mainly because I was not in communion with the utmost posting trend there to get rewards. Yep, you guessed it.. A pointless torrent of void images and photos of Flowers, Bugs, Clouds, Landscapes, Sunrises, Sunsets, Suncraps, etc, etc, etc. flying everywhere all the time. Everything in the name and on behalf of "originality". #Originalcontent, like they used to say. ¿Do you catch the swing?
So, since I am more in tune with 'Wordy Stuff' Yup, you tell me, crap that actually get your neurons rolling and squeaking in sight I'm more of a babbler beast.. Well, to make the story short, my two hands fingers are enough to count the dohlahs I was able to accumulate in my tsu bank after almost 730 days perpetrating thoughtful and mischievous posts in a futile and fruitless attempt to excite or disturb some neurons out there to hopefully produce and harvest a ton of newer synapses around me in some way. ¡Go figure! and then suddenly laid off skint & pennyless without previous notice outta that wishful dream.
Therefore, solely to insist in observe, magnifying glass in hand, where all these brand new Digital Society Experiments and Sharing Economy Buzzing could eventually lead us through the net.. I had to soar & hover a bit more around the boundaries of these Booming Social Networks, Ca$h Lands Of Grace and Online Dime$ Paradises/Communities which rewards your valuable nonsense, SOMETIMES.
Alright! At this height and length of my babbling, you surely must have noticed that english is not my native tongue. So excuse me my weird sentences construction to express my alien ideas and the bunch of typos I probably would incur way too often from now on. I can only say I will appreciate your comments if you care to pinpoint where in my texts I went too wacko.As a note aside and just to poke a bit your curiosity, I'm not gonna say what country I come from, however, to give you a few hints, let's say I am currently in a place where most of its inhabitants are closer and closer to borrow money from bums sleeping on a bench using their own shoe as a pillow. A city where almost all the inhabitants are next to find hard rub two coins together after the eagerly awaited day of tomorrow.. The Venerable 1-S.
Hence, I had no other choice but stop my online flutter & hovering game right away, grab my shabby parachute, throw my spoiled bones thru the air and land on Steemit to try and test some luck with no more waiting.
Who knows, perhaps and even against all the odds Moby Dick is snooping my steps out here and will want to grease me up with some valuable ambergris, spermaceti or simply sperm oil to light and keep my humble candle going on for a while.
Last but not least, a few final thoughts to round up this article and cut out some fog away of myself.
"Loose Nuts & Bolts worth to drop on this first post"
Most of us wake in the morning attempting to curve the baseball of life into our sweet spot. From there we all fantasize about hearing that smack of the ball in the one place that will take it higher and further than the ever before. We dream of hearing the stadium announcer scream, “And that ball is outta here!”
Then the rush of achievement smothers us in pure orgasmic joy as we race around the bases to home plate and advancing the three stranded runner to a score as well. (¿Upvotes anybody?)
Then, almost as simultaneously as our adventure and subsequent conquering began, it ends. The thrill is gone. We bow our heads and place our palms on our knees in a dry attempt to catch our breath once again. We strain to understand why the emotion of the circulation of adrenaline has ceased to inhabit our literal being.
It is at that moment, you realize that you left the stove on at home.
¡Going with the flow will get you nowhere if the water is in a still pond!
¡Running with the pack often leads to conflicts you are not prepared for!
¡In order for a dream to come true, you must have had a dream to begin with!
After all, we are entirely trapped in a trend's MVP world where the environment and all our surroundings, at the end of the day, places everyone day in day out, in front of bear & endure also those other everlasting Minimum Viable Products in our life: The Sheepthecantropus Erectus, The Comm-Magnom Man and the dreadful Homo Satrapiens. Each one of them as the results of Some Sort Of Human Evolution. The "HOMO HABILIS" of the century XXI.
So, finally, never forget and always remember that timeless shiny rule of thumb:
¡Experience is something you don't get until after you need it!
Hence, one year later, you will know exactly what I am talking about. :)
"Follows, Comments, Resteems & Upvotes will be highly appreciated"
I must admit that sometimes it takes me a while to figure out what it is you are saying but I generally enjoy reading it.
Hahahaha my dear @happyme. That's exactly why I love you so much. :)
I am well aware my weird spanglish is not so easy to swallow & digest sometimes. But rest assured I'm working on provide a good Rosetta Stone with every post I will publish from now on. ;)
Thank you very much for your upvote, appreciation and always welcome comment.
Cheers & Steem On!!
You make me smile and laugh and that is one of life's best medicines. Thanks for that.
You may also claim an extra up-vote from me by entering my weekly SBD giveaway every Wednesday. I'm hoping all the participants get into the habit of gifting and up-voting each other as well. For now it is small money, but I keep hoping to attract some generous dolphins and whales that contribute to the prize pool with their vote. Regardless, even if we get only our own little votes, 100 X 2 cents is $2.00! I just need to attract a lot more people to participate. If I had 4,000 participants like minnowsupport, we would be making pretty good money for each other on our own.
Make you smile and laugh sometimes is my best reward dear. And you can bet that also makes me a cheerful HappyMe all the time. :)
You are on the right track with the idea of your contest and initiative. Your solidary way of thinking guarantees that you will succeed very soon in your purpose. I'll try to check out your weekly giveaways every wednesday to see how can I throw a few drops of fresh water on that pond of brotherhood. Despite my tiny drops of financial wealth are very humble, I'd expect they will come replete with plenty oxygen. The healer oxygen of my always Serious & Cranky sense of humor. }:)
Your cranky sense of humor is most welcome! I look forward to seeing your participation on a regular basis. A community of support is formed 1 person at a time!
Right On!! Sure it is!! 1 person at a time and now we are TWO. :)
