That's exactly what steemit is about! Helping others succeed! There are things I could never talk about because I haven't had the experience. Everyone has a unique story and struggles that may help someone else get through there own. If only one person sees a post and gets hope at a time when they could have given up, then to me all the upvotes in the world wouldn't matter. I'd rather change a life than the amount of money in my bank account. And that's not sentimental BS to garner votes. Anyone can contact me via email if they need support, because everything is viewable on the blockchain so until secure messaging exists, E-mail should do the job. I can truly say I am the happiest I've been in my life. Who would have thought social media could make a change for good amidst the many other hateful malicious comments that are the norm on so many others. I may not speak for everyone, but for for me giving someone something intangible at the time they most need it is one of the most incredible experiences.
exactly. I've always had a strong desire to help others since I came out of my long depression.
I've suffered a lot from isolation, fear and also from being too open/naive/vulnerable. I know that a lot of people are suffering in silence. I want to use my artistic vision to help others who don't know how to craft a story in a way that people will read. I've given a considerable amount of money to people already on this platform and it feels really good. It feels good in the same way that the founders created a place for me to be independent. This place was founded on the principles of non-violence and cooperation. Most people don't know what this means. It simply is a place where you can share your talents, lift up others and return the rewards. It is not enough anymore to just take the rewards for yourself alone. Sharing the rewards is so much better and quite frankly, I've never felt so happy as when I get to transfer half the rewards to the person who is suffering. Others helped me write my book when I was really nervous and lacked the ability to express my thoughts. I am returning that favor by helping others. This can be viewed as a way for those who are just starting to write about themselves. After they see how their story touched others, they will gain confidence on this platform, and begin to write under their own name. It's a confidence booster and a way for people to make some income quickly. It's a way for my efforts to be rewarded also, as keeping the secrets is a job, too. I'm exposed to a lot of raw pain, and I check up on some of the posters to make sure they are ok. It's like a therapist's job. It is sad I feel how many people are disconnected, and in pain. But i do understand it. I have had many issues with feeling down.
If you want to be somebody, somebody really special, be yourself! Thank you
