What a coincidence. Classic example of great minds thinking alike. Did a same post 3 months ago. Made about a few cents (what I call Stents in Steemit mumbo jumbo) and here's the link if you're interested too. https://steemit.com/inspiration/@gems.and.cookies/perseverance
Sometimes it's not about whether a post makes money or not. It's about writing the things that matter to you and sharing it. People may not read it but that's the beauty of it. You can quote from these posts when making a comment to somebody and voila you've shared your views just as if you just posted it for the first time. Some of my comments to you are copy pastes of some of my previous posts and boy it makes it feel good and worth all the trouble when you upvote it and say you enjoyed it or it's perfect. See, it comes full circle. Such is the beauty of the Lord.
Hey if we can bring new life to a great post that was passed by in the past, there is nothing better than having it make an impact now. I'm so stoked to hear that, reading your article on perseverance now!
