Started from the bottom, now we here (with 21 followers! Woop woop!) I'm in the for the long haul, my Mexi-Canadian friend. Whether I make a bajillion Steembucks or not, this site has given me incentive to do to things:
- WRITE MORE! When I was young, in my pre-high school era, I would write all the time. In fact, I would usually write instead of doing my homework (unless my homework was writing.) It wasn't the best, but it was good for my age, and I even had teachers who wanted to help me refine my talent. Unfortunately, shit happened after that, and it just dragged me into an abyss of being the child of a single, mentally ill mother in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere, Maine, and I lost that drive to keep putting pen to paper.
Here with Steemit, though, I have an avenue to get that practice in, and potentially reach the levels that I had for so long thought were now impossible to reach.
- Help spread the message of voluntaryism, and help other voluntaryists here do the same! I'm telling you, this place is going to make Facebook obsolete for us - at least as anything more than a place for us to promote our Steemit articles.
So whether I strike it immediately rich, or if I must endure that long haul, I'm in it to win it, baby!
@seanobi now you have 22 followers and an extra upvote! I like your attitude and what you have to say.
i do think anarchy and voluntaryist are dead end philopshies. But as I say so frequently I may not like what you say, but I'll listen to what you have to say and point out where I think you're right and where I think you're wrong. Only thing I ask is that you return the favor.
And I just added around $12 to your comment because of your attitude. Writing can be a cathartic thing, so I am all for that. You being excited about this will lead to other being excited too. I'll be following you. Thanks.
I feel the same way. Facebook doesn't exactly let me write freely. I'd rather have an unregulated huge market than only my friends judging what I write. I am loving steemit.
Wow, thanks for all the support, folks! I totally stand by my statement. Whether Steemit makes me a millionaire or just leaves me as another frustrated comedy writer, I'd rather work hard at it and see where it takes me instead of giving up.
