I enjoyed reading this argument and agree with your idea of prosperity and what you see/perceive becomes your reality.
I am new to steemit and not quite sure how all works, but loving that it's a place where real people are still able to share ideas and creativity w/o censorship. However, I have been upvoting whatever I like and see now that when I do it gives no $, but I still consider my upvote worth something--encouragement.
