I clumsily crawled out of bed and onto the Steemit-land...
Guess what I found?
After working all day yesterday, I have just hit 5-0-0! WHAT?
I want to find a way to be able to say thank you to you all π
So, let's start a little contest then shall we? I will give a special surprise to whoever tells me the most inspirational story about love in the comments but as you know by now, I am not typical and I want to do this a little bit differently...I don't want this contest getting clogged up by people only in it for what they're getting out of it, so only heart-felt stories need apply! If you trust in your heart and you want to share, I encourage you to do so, and can't wait to read your story.
Do to fairness, I will have to choose by upvotes but I will also choose my personal favourite. However you get those upvoted comments is up to you but please be fair! We will know the winner when the post pays out ππππ
I know milestones are a big tradition on here so I am wanting to make sure you know how excited I am!
Listen everyone, just a little over 2 weeks ago, I was pretty lost and confused, trying to find a place I could fit in, create and be me. Steemians helping me along the way made a huge difference and I hope to spread that love!
Thank you Steemit for bringing that to me! It can be lonely being across the world from everyone you know!
Confessions of a Vegabond (my travel series) is one of my favorite things to write.
There are so many stories to share with you all, most recently I shared how I began working for a drug runner in Domincan Republic (obviously on accident!) But there are many more like that where they came from and they just keep on getting more wild along the way- hope you continue enjoying them as much as you have been :)
You can see the series here:
Part 1, Intro
Part 2, How I Ended Up Homeless
Part 3, The Drug Runner
I have also been busy looking at "busy.org" to share with you all.
If you haven't seen that yet, it's a really cool site that works together with Steemit, giving a chat option, a tip the author option, and an editor that is a little bit easier to use. It's platform is more user-friendly, kind of like some other social media accounts we're already used to. I had a lot of fun playing around learning from the site and I am a huge fan of it!
You can see that article here.

Well, you've struck me straight in the heart by asking for stories. Congrats on your big 5-0-0!
My love story is going to be about a boy... but he's not my boyfriend. His name was John, he was two years old, and he was a little hellion. He was in constant competition with this three siblings for attention, and as his babysitter I got bitten and punched and once even had a string of mardis gras beads covered in poop thrown at me.
But on his third birthday, while I was on vacation with his family, I got some alone time with him away from his brothers and sister. We walked along the beach holding hands and played at the park, and at the end of the day he crawled into my lap and told me he loved me. My heart melted.
It's amazing how just a little loving attention can be reflected back tenfold. Until you tell him it's bedtime.
The bot warned me that I would only get a potential $0.04 payout in 4 days if I up voted your comment ,wow, let's hope the're being generous haha
From my position the money doesn't matter anyway ,until you need it and at the end of the day the heart is still beating, whether I have any or I have abundance ,while I sleep my heart is beating ,
I'm dreaming, ,dreaming of people who share from the heart their all, living, Heart to Heart almost like the little child you describe,,,,,,,,, a hurt heart isn't loving but when you take some time and show someone attention hold their hand and lead them to a new understanding, the response is revelatory ,in itself life-altering...
Thanks again , @hearttoheart , you do well, keep up the good work!
The heart is like a parachute, you hit the ground hard if it's not O p e n
If you find yourself with some time and want to read a truly life-altering story check out... Finding Yzart @yzart.
I actually gave that $0.04 gift to the roving reader your beautiful heart got my four pennies as much as I've made in 3 days so Hallelujah
Hi @yzart! I didn't see this until now, what a beautiful gift to find :)
I agree with you and try to surround myself with others who feel the same. To me connection is currency, I cannot lie and say that money/financial gain is not appreciated because of course it is in today's world but I believe in more than that, in forging relationships and sharing and learning from one another. A world of love and understanding, encouragement and appreciation... That's where I want to live :) I hope that my blog can bring me closer to this world and the people that would like to meet me there <3 Thank you for being here today to put a smile upon my face, I appreciate everything about this post. How sweet an image of the young child you painted... :)
XO
Yes you really did, and I love everything about it!
@therovingreader you're the winner! =D Thank you for sharing this story, you won personal favourite as well as upvotes so check your account, I have some surprises coming your way! XO, Keep spreading the love!
Hey, thank you! I'm enjoying all your stories, glad I could share a tiny one from my teenage days.
Hey, those teenage days can be pretty interesting, can't they ;)
Thanks again for being lovely and making me smile!
XO,

Congrats @heart-to-heart. I see 1000+ by next month :)
Wow! I hope you're a fortune teller! That would be super cool! :)
ππππ
Im a steemit fortune teller :) lol
500 to me is overwhelming, I am just really excited that you all are here and liking what I am sharing, it really makes me feel amazing inside π Thank you! π
I still remember the first time I met her. I was the new guy and she was so kind and generous that it really made me feel like I fit in. Her name was Upvote and things were good for quite some time. Then one day some jerk named HardFork 19 showed up and it became obvious immediately that her attentions were elsewhere. But I still hung around. I started writing down my memories of our early times together in a notebook and I plan on reading these stories to her one day to help her remember the old days...the good times.
Good morning!
Good morning! Have a wonderful day π
XO,
@heart-to-heart

XO,
Nice one! Keep it up :)
If that positive energy can just rub off on everyone, they'll surely start buying again instead of panic selling πhaha π€£
Awesome! Congrats!
First off, congratulations to you!! That's a huge accomplishment. Well this might be cheating a little but I actually just wrote about my love story this week. I hope you don't mind if I share the link instead of rewriting it? It is so very near and dear to my heart...you can completely disregard if it offends to post the link...
https://steemit.com/writing/@thesimplelife/you-are-my-great-day
Hi @thesimplelife thank you so much! I appreciate it :) I don't mind you sharing your story here but according to the rules of my contest, it would need upvotes and I think because you didn't share your story directly, it wasn't seen :( I'm sorry but thank you so much and keep giving out that love!
XO,
π2π
For you taking your time, I am going to come over and upvote a post for you!
Oh gosh...that's no big deal. I wasn't a rule follower ;-). Thank you!
Congratulation on the big 500, I'm your newest follower, and I up voted you and wish you great happiness thanks for the smile.
