A powerful and impactful Steemit post.

one of the things I enjoy most about this community is Steemians like yourself who has the courage to share incredible life stories and experiences.

This one flows so nicely and you include images that reinforce the message and stories you are sharing.

It takes a lot of courage, hard work, and dedication to write something like this so thank you so much for all you put into creating this post for the community.

This is one of the best art gallery shows I have seen in awhile and it is in a Steemit post.

The amount of variety and depth in your creations is astounding and the way you included all them in one post gives us a virtual gallery of your art.

I can’t even imagine all the time, effort, and resources spent to create all this beauty but thank you so much for doing it.

It was an absolute joy to go through your art multiple times.
