200 Followers, Hallelujah! (Plus Valentine Giveaway - Free SBD & Resteem)

My Steemit journey has been anything but easy. To be honest, it's has been a rollercoaster ride, with the thrills and excitement of the highs and the downright depression of the lows. It hasn't been easy, but so far, it has been worth it.

I registered with Steemit sometime in 2017 but it wasn't until the second week of January, 2018 that I began to use the account. If I knew back then what I know now, I'm sure things would have been better. But there's no regrets; instead, I've got reasons to be grateful.

200 Followers, Hallelujah!

In the early hours of today, I had my 200th follower. It was awesome. Why? Because, to an extent, it means my efforts are being recognized and appreciated. I know some people probably make that much followers in a week but that doesn't take away the excitement for me. I'm happy and I'm grateful.

To everyone following me, I'm very grateful. I promise to put in more effort in what I do. (It will really help if you let me know why you're following me to help me become better)

You can expect the following from me

1. More quality posts in form of stories, poems and articles. I understand how subjective art can be but I promise to always provide my best. I currently have two stories and a poem you might want to check out.

2. Continuation of TheGrayContest. Already in its their week, TheGrayContest is my way of giving back. Currently, total prize money is pegged at 3 SBD. You can check here for more info. Soon, I hope, I'll be able to make more from my posts to give bigger rewards.

3. Support for other users. I personally enjoy reading and learning new things. I pledge my support to helping others who are also committed to creating quality contents. My steempower is currently nothing to write home about. But I've got plans to change that.

Valentine Giveaway

In the spirit of love and appreciation, I'll be giving away 2 SBD in total to four lucky followers. That is, 0.5 SBD each (it's probably too small but a man can only give what he has). And no, this isn't a contest. It quite simple. To qualify, just do the following

1. Upvote and resteem this post

2. Post the link to any post of yours in the comment section below. It could be on any subject. The post could be from a long time ago or any newly created post. I'm not voting on it, I'll simply transfer the money to you.

3. The post must be original, plagiarized contents are disqualified. I want to read good content. I have a wide taste so almost every subject applies.

4. One entry per follower. (You must be following me to qualify)

I'll read the entries and make a transfer each time I read something I think is worth it. As soon as the 2 SBD is exhausted, I'll edit this post and let you all know. So you had better start posting the links now.

Thanks for being a part of my success
Thanks for reading
Happy Valentine's Day
Blessings

Edit (One Hour Later)
The 2 SBD is maxed out. Congrats to the winners.
