"The Autobiography of Malcolm X" is one of the most inspiring books I've read so far.
Can also relate to my eyesight getting worse and worse because of reading under suboptimal conditions haha learned the lesson.
Cool post! Will be interesting to hear you report on your children's thoughts in a couple years :D I'm sure Steemit will be around
This is one of the things that I really like about steem it. It makes it so you can develop a body of work that is loaded into the Blockchain and can be revisited later for teaching purposes entertainment purposes political purposes financial purposes and the like. It is also a great place for storing photography spreadsheets articles. It's like a running wife record of your thoughts hopes dreams and aspirations I can be shared especially with younger family members later in life. It's kind of like riding a life book to the world that your children or grandchildren or great-grandchildren will be able to come back in time. It's like a time capsule.
I'm sure she'll have a Steemit account herself in a few years time... you'll be able to hear from her directly!
My children are six and eight and ask all the time if they can make YouTube videos. So that got me to thinking in this new world with the gift economy and social media platforms such as steem they would be able to generate an income and make a living. My thought was when If i start my kids now by the time they're 20 they will have a track record and a bunch of followers ! Which also will take them away from the broken structure of middle school, high school ,college ,debt ,house job as slave!!
