Look What steemit made me do !!
Hi everyone this is my post for the contest hosted by @mermaidvampire ๐๐, when I first saw this , I felt I needed to do this . But I was not able to think straight , that time. But now , I have put my thinking hat on. So here I go.
First off , I'm a person who likes to follow rules and regulations. Which means , my life is pretty much the same everyday. I do the same things , more like OCD haha . I'm not kidding. That's when I found out you can post in YouTube , I didn't even know that , imagine ๐คฃ๐๐.
So when I found out , I decided I should give it a try. Cause ever since I was small , I was good at acting . But I never had a chance for that. Plus my mom doesn't like me doing anything that sort. So I didn't do anything. So when I started YouTube , I had to be someone else , I had to maintain that expectation of me. I had to be saying the right things , even then , mom warned me against it. And China had Google services all banned so I couldn't do it anymore. That's when my good friend @shonyishere is telling me about steemit.
Haha guys let me not lie to you. I thought it was a joke. I thought how could it be real. For real , I thought like that. Then , without having any idea from before , about what steemit was , I came to this world. But @shonyishere helped me alot. Hehe yeah , I guess without him , I would have been hacked more than once , I would have eventually given up . So a big thank you ๐๐๐ค to @shonyishere . Cause without you I wouldn't be here. And I know I can be a pain , sometimes , cause I don't know anything , but thanks for being patient with me.
So right after I entered I wanted to do things , so first I did a introduction post hahah , I didn't know about the importance of tags , so not many noticed it , I was not getting any exposure.
But I never gave up ! I wanted so bad to make it work. So I was writing whatever I felt. Cause I didn't actually know , how much of emotions I had bottled up . But this platform helped me , by letting me be myself. I didn't have to change or be someone perfect . I could tell you guys , how bad my day was or anything . And when people responded it was heaven for me . Especially people like @lildebbiecakes , @wondersofnature , @wilx , @omoyiwolabusayo , @hefziba , @cobmaximus and everyone else who I talked to , thank you guys !
Yes , like that , I started discovering myself. It's true. In the beginning , I was so inconfident , that I was no sure what to do . From that , I started to draw, joining contests , my drawing is not really great but I put a lot of effort into everything I do. So for me , it's like minutes successes , from being super bad at drawing to now . I'm proud of me hehe ๐๐คฃ.
Then I started to write about medical posts too , since I thought , by doing that , I could research Abit more on the topic and I could myself learn a bit more. So I did that too. And my craziest thing would be , me posting a minimum of 4 posts per day. For real , throughout the day I'll be thinking and doing . For those 4 posts to be made.
And then I began to rediscover more of God , like , problems we're coming into my life , like one after the other , so I was at a stage were I could loose my mind. But steemit , helped me , stay sane. Christian-trail is the tag which I use the most so far. I just love posting about God and how that changed me . I feel really good knowing that I have at least helped one person somehow. And myself too. Cause I'm an imperfect person.
And then me finding my photography skills , haha , there is no skills there , but I just do it for calming my mind. I take long walks and while I'm doing it , if I see something beautiful , then I will take my phone and capture that moment.
It also was because of steemit , cause steemit has some photography challenges too.
Then it was the time , there were writing challenges and I was Soo pumped ,cause I so love writing , right food , what I really love is writing , although I don't know how to be a blogger . But I try. ๐๐๐. So then I wrote whatever that came to my mind , and to increase the effect t I drew some drawings too.
Yes , that's when my whole fees issue cw up and I was totally heartbroken thinking about all the problems back home , and I was not able to help. That's how I started to write about it . I try my best to work hard for everything. But still , whatever I have made so far , could have never been possible if steemit was not there.
So to summarise , these are the things GS that steemit made me do.
โข Draw closer to God.
โข Come out of my shell and ask for help
โข Draw and make comics
โข A Believer
โข A writer
โข A person who cares about others and prays for them
โข Go crazy over my account , like it's my baby hehe.
Oh yeah that reminds me of the time , my account was Hacked ,I almost cried. And yesterday when i was trying to figure a way to cash out and apparently Bitcoin is blocked in china , it made me a bit stressed. But later god helped me . And God made a way for me after all. Through @hefziba , I had no idea.
So this is my sincere gratitude for steemit , for making me a new person. For helping me through my worst. For being and believing in me.
