Hello! From #Nigeria, I bring a warm greetings to everyone in this wonderful community @aroundtheworld and @steemit at large.
And it is a great honor paticipating in this self experience contest.
My name is @vibrant6689, I'm here to pour my heart on the topic...
TELL US ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF STEEMIT IN YOUR DAILY LIFE.
Is there anything else that could be more important than a saved life? Thanks to @steemit.
Is only he who wears the shoes that knows where it pitches him most.
Every average individual that listens to news regularly does not need to be told how the economy and security of Nigeria had totally crashed.
Killings, kidnapping, etc and the government is really not doing anything tangible. People's safety is not guaranteed, crops in the farms are destroyed. The worst aspect is that curfew is also decleard, so everybody has to stay indoors with empty stomach.
I am also a young gentle man who is currently in the university, all by myself and I must confess that it had been really difficult working really hard to fend for myself and pay my tuition fees in this present condition of Nigeria.
It's my 4th year in the institution, and it is a practical year that requires a lot of money to pay so many bills, therefore, I have to stay out of school for a while to see if I can get a job that could serve as my back bone in this trying time, but I'm not just going to see any tangible one because nothing is really working especially now.
At a time I was beginning to think otherwise, I was considering giving up on so many things including education, atleast, for the main time.
Because I'm so emotional I easily get depressed when ever life is treating me bad, I could consider hurting myself. Or can you tell me,.... How do you usually handle this type of situation in your case, especially when the person that you are supposed to be confineding in suddenly becomes too busy that she hardly picks your calls nor returns your messages. It's very painful 😭.
Everything turned upside down for me and you can use me as an example of depression, my heart was really heavy because I've got a mother that looks upto me for a daily bread.
I was just in an awful dilemma without any positive clue of what to do next.
Then it came as a miracle when I received a phone call from my very good friend and a fellow student @kingworldline. He told me about this platform @steemit and I picked interest at the first thought.
He put me through the processes, I made my introduction post which got me enough money to transport me back to school, and same is still sustaining me till now.
*Now I have become so addicted to this platform such that I no longer bother about who calls or who doesn't. And I see future in this platform.
*As a result of daily diaries games and so many challenges and contests, my horizon have really been broaden.
To cut the whole story short, I call steemit, a
PEACE OF MIND
*Steemit had really made me understand the real definition of integrity because I just have to depend on myself for a very healthy and original article without having to plagiarize.
*It saved my life and I'm very grateful, at such, I will ensure I engage actively in every activities going on and also, I will never stop spreading the gospel of this platform to the world. #longlivesteemit
These are just few of the lots ways that steemit had helped my life but I just have to stop here so that you don't get bored with my lengthy write up
Kudos to @art-bangladesh and co - moderators for making me see reasons to be grateful.
