"Is the art and music that I share a sign of my success?"
I cant tell if your answer to this is Yes or No or Other, but im guessing it's rhetorical. It sounds as if youre saying that Steemit lets you showcase the fruits of your labors of love, which makes you happy, because artists like to share their true work. Maybe it makes you doubly happy to be validated by the steem economic-ecosystem. Or maybe it has nothing to do with steemit per se -- unlike others who share their "work" solely in the hopes of economic gain, youre just happy that an outlet such as steemit gives you even more motivation/reward/vindication to keep doing more of what you enjoy. Or, this is a toast to those who are creating and producing art for the right reasons, a reminder and encouragement that producing your art -- good content -- will prevail, that it will trump the votebots and users seeking to maximize their short term gains by exploiting steemit rules.

It was meant as rhetorical, but you have answered it well. I always liked the idea of making a portfolio of my projects, and while making them I find all the reward that I've ever gotten from play. Here though, there is a monetary reward on top of that, and this platform has inspired me to produce more art, in the last year, than I've made in a long time. Even more reason to want to share the art here, and all the while doing what I enjoy. Yes, it is a toast to all of art, for the sake of enjoying life as it happens instead of waiting for the success to be approved by the grown-ups, or validated by upvotes.
Ah you said the magic word (which I missed) :
Inspired
It's priceless to be able to find inspiration and reward, continuously, in one place.
Keep on keeping on! 🙂
