I believe you are absolutely spot on!

When I first started here, I was super excited. I have not been so excited about something in a while! Even the people around me in town noticed, lol. And I noticed I would get a fair share of comments informing me that they loved my passion for Steemit! That they could feel it jump out at them from their computer screens! This had a profound effect on me :) From then on I made sure to smile when I am typing (unless it is a not so happy subject, of course) It really does show through!
