RE: When the Community Feels Different

Steemit has gone through several stages. The one you knew when you arrived is nothing like what it was in 2018, for example, when there was intense activity from different projects and curator accounts, all of whom later left, and it dwindled to just two large curator accounts, although other communities like rme's still exist.

What I mean is that things change, and they change again...
I admit that beyond Steemit, these changes sometimes frighten me. I tend to associate stability with security, with comfort... but deep down I long for positive changes, even though these can be scary.

In my opinion, there's no other option but to be brave.

I'm also very emotional, sometimes even tearful, and that feeling envelops me and I feel like a child, but then I understand that I must try to turn the ashes into something beautiful, even though at first it feels like an uphill battle...

Anyway, keep writing, here on Steemit, in your journals, wherever, but keep going. This might be a way to find the paths you're looking for.

Blessings to you.

You’re so right — change is really at the heart of everything, isn’t it? Our minds, our bodies, our priorities… nothing stays still. And yes, people come and go here on Steemit too, and whether we admit it or not, it does shape our experiences and even our moods.

But like you said, the only way forward is with a bit of courage. Even when things feel uncertain or a little overwhelming, we keep showing up, we keep creating, we keep turning those “ashes” into something meaningful.

And honestly, this community… it is something special. It still feels like a place worth returning to, worth contributing to, worth holding on to in our own ways.

Thank you for the reminder, and for the comfort in your words.

We keep writing. We keep going...
