Our Amazing Experiences on Steemit.

I'm not a big fan of unsocial-medias, I gave up Facebuck 5yrs ago and felt great for doing so, but Something happened about six months ago that would change my view on social media, well at least on this one particular social media called STEEMIT.

Bitcoin Bitcoin Bitcoin, let's face it that's the reason we are all here right?
I decided to give Bitcoin a try, I had always known about it but never believed in anything other than Gold and Silver.

Through Bitcoin, I learned about Steem and then Steemit,
and now 2 months later I'm sitting here writing my 20th post.

Wow! OMG! this is f#"king amazing, I can not believe the the amount of fun I've had in these past 2 months, it's been a ride of a lifetime.
In my first post, I told the Steemit community how we ditched our T.V and within 2 months of doing this, we sold everything, quit my job and went travelling with our kid's.

The response from the Steemit community was mind blowing and gave us a huge boost, I thought I might get a few funny comments from naysayers, but no, just kindness, admiration and a bucket load of uppvotes/comments/resteems and follows.

My next experience on Steemit was without a doubt the most emotional, powerful and uplifting experiences I've EVER had online.
I decided to tell my life story to the Steemit community on how I went from being a homeless drug addict to having everything I ever dreamed of.
I'm not sure what compelled me to do this, but it just felt right.

I was a very nervous when I pushed the POST button but within minutes that anxious feeling was replaced with a ginormous sense of relief. It felt like this monkey I had on my back for 36yrs was gone, and the response from the steemit community was BEAUTIFUL, the love and support I felt was mindblowing.
This would never happen on Facebuck or Instascam.

I have also witnessed this kind of brother/sisterhood in other post's, here a just a couple from this week.

Here is just one example of how steemians look out for eachother.

I now feel such a part of the Steemit Family and I hope you all continue to follow us on our amazing journey, travelling in our tinyhouse truck on our quest to find land and build our eco-community.

Thank you Steemians for bringing extra value to our lives, and helping us believe in what we are doing for our family is the right thing.

And a big thank goes to @pitterpatter who showed us a lot of support from the very begining.

Peace and love to the World...

You my friend are an amazing soul. I really enjoyed reading your post and am learning from you anything is possible. Thanks for being my friend in the amazing world of steemit. :)

Thank you @rebeccabe
It's funny how life turns out, I never thought anyone could learn anything from me, as I never really went to school, but maybe what I lack in education, I make up for in experience.
If we really learn from experiences both good and bad then In theori we teach ourselves everything we ever need to know.

We are all each others teachers. True knowledge comes from the heart. Also many people with higher education don't know how to think for themselves. Keep on steeming.. :)

Goodness I must have dreamt I upvoted and commented on this. I'm glad I reviewed your posts. We all were meant to be here and the times are getting exciting for steemers .
