It's a nice story. How long have you been here on steemit exactly? And do you have any family? I've not been here too long myself. But I love it. So many interesting people. And yes it's very important to upvote and comment and meet new people and build relationships. It's what I help people do here or at least try. You should stop by my site sometime. It's really geared toward newer people. I have what I call 60-second games you can play. There's lots of interesting people there and if you have any questions there's normally someone that can help. In any case I like your story. Baddest kid on the street and you lived on the corner. That's pretty funny. In any case I hope you have a great day. And I hope you stop by my place. Sending you all of my love until we meet again. May our creator bless you and yours.
