I've always wondered if there's ever anyone interested with what we have been writing. They're mostly about family, my kids and our life experiences. But you said it yourself;

Who says, your simple blogs about "life" etc has not triggered action in the search engines and brought thousands to steemit today or potential thousands next-next tomorrow?

When we got introuduced to Steemit, I was hesitant at first because it felt like I have to be a knowledgeable about cryptocurrency and stuff. Then we wrote our first post, and it was just a simple idea about us. We got upvotes for it. I never knew sharing something about your life gets you something. I should have shared more with steemit than facebook or Twitter or wherever. This platform has made us feel appreciated. Thank you, @surpassinggoogle for all your kind words.
