Steemit is My Place - Day 71 - Daily Haiku

Heirloom Hydrangea in full bloom

Steemit is my place
the venue I have chosen
to make myself heard.

Like so many of us, I came to Steemit partly in disgust at how my personal information was being gathered and used against me by social media sites such as Facebook.

I particularly liked the idea that Steemit does not datamine its members. And, naturally, I was intrigued with the idea that it could become a stream of income, at the same time.

After a bit over four months, I am still a minnow, still a newbie in many ways, but the one thing I learned and have implemented, thanks in part to advice from @valorforfreedom, and the 30 Day Haiku Challenge begun by @brokemancode, is to post every day, without fail.

I usually post twice, sometimes as many as four times, but always at least once, and today is my 71st daily haiku post, which is a continuation of the original 30 Day Haiku Challenge.

Melaleuca, a company that has been making natural, eco-friendly
products since the 1980s, that not only work as well as
chemically laden versions from the supermarket,
but are safer, and typically save money overall in addition.

I was introduced to them by a co-worker in 1990, lost track
of them, and was thrilled to find them again about a year
and a half ago. I strongly recommend their products.

I have used it on myself and my animals with excellent results.

This photo is of an heirloom Tennessee hydrangea in full bloom, given to me a few years ago by my neighbor across the street, whose wife originally got it from her grandmother, when they were first married. It has been naturalized in this part of Middle Tennessee for nearly a hundred years, if not longer.

You're welcome!

I've always been a big believer in giving credit publicly, where it is due, and you're the first one I read who made "post every day without fail" a priority. I thank you for that.

I make sure to hold my word because if I don't hold it nobody will value what I say.

It is a matter of honor & reputation for me.

Gods and heroes that don't hold their word in the Edda's are called "Oathbreakers".

So true.

I was just railing to myself that so many who call themselves "oathkeepers" are, in reality, "oathbreakers," because, in reality, they are in the end, not even being true to themselves.

This is why I left my first two marriages. Because the men who promised to be true to me, were, in reality, not even being true to themselves, even though they were basically good men.

Happily, the third time was the charm, and I finally found a man who is not only true to me, but true to himself, which is by far the most important thing in the end.

And I fully understand how lucky I am to have found him.

Many men are nice to score vagina till they die.
Many men are nice because mommy raised them to be nice.

No wonder women ask themselves where all the good men have gone and vice versa.

Men have become feminine and women masculine.

Globalists did that quite well.

Being nice isn't a bad thing. But being nice, without responsibility, isn't good either.

Many men aren't really men. Bottom line. And, frankly, they're not worth bothering with.
Which is why women aren't bothering with them.

I was married to two pretenders. This time I'm married to an actual man.
BIG improvement.

Good luck with the marriage, in my opinion, you cannot buy love and you do not need to sign a government contract to show a girl you love her.

The consequences of divorces are too severe for men and too good for women.

But I do not want to get all negative here, I wish you all the best and may it be till death.

Thanks. I'm actually pretty much in agreement, and although Marek wanted to get married pretty quickly, I waited eight years before finally saying yes.
As you say, we had already made a lifetime commitment to one another, and no contract changes that.

And divorce isn't always great for women, either, hence why I waited eight years to do it again.
