This is so true and lots of you may not believe it... Last year I invested most of my time (more than 12 hours a day) to work in this amazing ecosystem, and despite I'm extremely happy of being traveling (this was my final goal), I really miss being that girl that was planning daily, weekly, and monthly every post and task.

I mean... I still do that, but due to the constant dynamism and movement, it's being very difficult to be able to achieve that previous level of organization. Anyway, I work every day to improve my performance here on Steemit.

---

This post is basically to tell everyone on this platform, how important is to be loyal to Steemit and the strength that Steemit could have in the way you live.

One year ago I was going out from an illness that was apparently COVID-19, despite testing negative to all the analysis. I was dedicated to Steemit but I still had my old job, that one that put me on the border of depression.

I was scared, I was lost, I wasn't sure about which one was the next step, and one day I stopped, and remembered this:

---

Months ago I had been asking God, the Universe, and Life about one solution. I asked for an income on the Internet to be able to leave my country and live the dream of being a nomad for a while or be able to afford the cost of emigration.

I had some money, but it wasn't enough for what my soul needed.

And at that moment I started to count how much I had been able to save from Steemit, and voilà... I had the money that I needed.

---

But something happened... doctors discovered a myoma in my uterus, so in two months I was having the surgery.

---

My decision to travel and leave the country was strong, but that surgical intervention push me to the truth: LIFE'S ONE: GO AND LIVE IT. And that's how I took the final decision and bought the plane ticket...

---

Today is day 44 of my trip. I'm happier than I've ever been. I'm full, and I thank God every day when I wake up for giving me this opportunity.

And Steemit is not God, not at all, but Steemit is the bridge that made possible this.

Thanks to Steemit I could pay for my surgery, which showed me the truth, and for Steemit I could buy the flight.

---

And tomorrow it's another important day for me: I'LL START MY 2ND YOGA TEACHER TRAINING.... and guess what...

STEEMIT MADE IT POSSIBLE.

Before, I had the money for the teacher training or for the trip, I had to choose. Now, I could make both.

You may think: what are you doing? Why don't you buy something bigger? Why don't you just stay in a place and find a job...

And you know what? This journey is teaching me how quickly life goes by... This trip is teaching me to let go of things (I had to leave an entire suitcase in some city to be able to travel lighter), and you know what?

At the end of my life, my soul won't be expanded thanks to what I have. Not because a car, nor for a house.

My soul will be bright and full for the experiences that I dared to live.

---

And for all this that I explained here, with some shy tears in my eyes, is why I'm grateful to this platform

I'm not tired of saying this a thousand times, because someone new could read it.

It wasn't magic. I was working for hours and hours, day and night since the moment that I started.

And also for all these things that I explained, is why I really want to be that obsessed committed girl again. Not for the income (of course clearly I'm being transparent and saying that I need and I use it), but for how much worth it is to be an asset for the platform.

I think about it every day. And I know I'll be here as before.

---

About tomorrow... I start my Yoga Teacher Training which is a retreat for a month!! I'm happy, but I know it'll have some effects on my presence here.

Promise I'll do my best, and hopefully, once I finish this next stage, I'll have a lot of amazing things to share with you.
