I want to officially introduce myself to the steemit community. Although am about 3weeks old. I have been sitting by the sideline carried away by the enticing user friendly interface of the steem environment. Reading and educating myself with intriguing posts and comments by the wonderful members here.

Am David Emmanuel a Nigerian, a proud sailor, a lover of sport and a networker by choice. Even at sea, steem got our back.435834580_122229.jpg Despite the sea separating us from our love ones, we still find a way of reaching out to them. When the wind and wave lose their grip, and the sea roars to eat up everything, we don't cry running to mama for help. Rather we party hard like its our last on earth. 20171001_175738.jpg

Embolden by a slogan in our heart

"smooth sea don't make a good sailor ". "the rougher the sea the smoother the sail431808026_92407.jpgAnd we recite the sailors 23rd psalm:

**The Lord is my Pilot, i shall not go adrift;He lighteth my passage across dark channels;He steereth me through the deep waters, He keepeth my log; He guided me by the evening star for my safety sake.Yea, though I sail mid the thunders and tempests of life,I shall fear no peril, for thou art with me,The vastness of thy sea upholds me.Surely fair winds and safe harbors shall be found ,All the days of my life;

And I shall moor, fast, and secure forever Amen**.

Despite all this, steem finds us. Thanks to @izge.
My first week on steem has been so frustrating trying to learn and understand the activities here. I really appreciate @izge and @jademarie for tutoring me on how to get along.
