RE: The Difference(s) Between Freedom, Rights, and Entitlement
i missed that resteem for which i am happy. It is always painful to loose something you took for granted because of frequency and duration but it is extremely sad to not look thankfully back to it and go into the dramatic entitlement role. Thumbs up for how you handled this!

Ya, I wish I had missed it honestly. It was literally the first thing I saw when I turned on my phone that day, and I spent a huge portion of my day responding to the allegations & claims being made.
What's the old saying, "no good deed goes unpunished"? I obviously don't actually feel like that, and even this situation has actually brought more support & empathy from folks, by I'd be lying if I said there wasn't part of me that gets the urge to just shut the whole thing down when this sort of thing happens.
Having been on steem for almost 4 years now and riding the waves from my posts making $200+ each to making no more than $3 each for months on end, and lots of places in between, I have always (ok, not always, but for the most part) found it easy to just keep plugging along, knowing that the reason I'm doing this is because I like researching, sharing my thoughts & experiences, having a creative outlet, the money is just a bonus. Really, the best part of the money is the fact that I've been able to give SO much away to so many people through this project.
Thanks for your comment and support!
Ha, "no good deed goes unpunished", seriously never heard that one :-)
I remember a saying of Osho "Don't be a good doer" which took me a long time to understand.
Anyway, much love brother,we all know better. Keep shining, keep giving, Steem is rainbow, "the more that i give, the more i got to give" :-)
