Falling in love could mean different things to different folks but for this blogger, it means a whole lot of things. When you love someone, you give your all to him/her. When you love a thing, a place, an outfit, you also give your all to it and dedicate your time and energy in protecting it and ensure it strives.

A great Singer "Nat King Kole" in his love song displayed how deep falling in love goes which is portrayed in his lyrics " When I Fall In Love"

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

Hmmm! What a great song...

I joined steemit by mid June 2017 and since then, my love life has never being the same. Steemit has changed my style of blogging, thinking, ways of seeing things and my social life, In fact, I see myself as a better person from my former self these few months all thanks to steemit.

Interestingly, I have increased my internet presence for over 60% more from when I manage my Facebook pages and wassap group chat during the time I was giving out free natural health tips to many that cares to listen at little or no benefits to myself except some few appreciations from some folks. But in steemit all these are different and as such, I feel deep down that I have fallen in love with this social media outfit and below are my reasons

  • Steemit has improved my income tremendously as through steemit, I have been able to raise enough funds to create multiple streams of income for myself through blogging and trading in altcoins which may not have been possible if I didn't join steemit and I love steemit for this as I am having some level of financial freedom I never had before now.

  • I love steemit because it has widened my knowledge scope. From cryptocurrency to Religion, Homesteading to Technology, Philosophy to Health etc Steemit is a knowledge bank and I am tapping very well from the free wealth of knowledge I find here in steemit, which has made me fall in love with this platform.

  • Thanks to my new found Love steemit, I am able to meet exciting people around the world. I do not wanna mention names but we know steemit has the good, bad and ugly and as they say from where I come from " If you play any tune in the compound of a great man, there is always someone to dance to it" Here in steemit, exciting people abound as such I am having good time enjoying myself and picking out many new friends on constant basis from around the world and I wonder which other platform will accord me this priviledge if not my new found love Steemit.

  • I truly have fallen in love with steemit because of the deep sense of community people have here especially according help to the needy through various support programs and helping minnows grow through many minnow support projects and competitions. This is never seeing in anyother Social media outfit that prefer to take from the poor and needy and add to their huge wealth but here it is different as such I think I have fallen deeply in love with steemit and steemians especially our 1 & only @everlove of the @gardenofeden where show of love and sustainable living through the natural bounties of the earth is at its peak.

So my question is, what of you? Do feel free to comment if you have fallen in love with steemit and why...

Ending with this Epic song from Nat King Cole, as I ask my lovely steemians to sing along with us...

Ooohhhhhh.....love is such a beautiful thing! There is so very much to love here on Steemit, in the opportunities, and in the community. I so grateful to have made a difference in your life @kenhudoy. Finding like minded people who support and care about one another truly is one of the basic gems of enjoyment for me too. I'm grateful that you're here, that you've shared your heart in so many ways, and that you keep on giving and improving our experience here on Steemit. Together we can literally move mountains, especially those that have kept us divided and apart for so long. It's truly a blessing to be here with you, and I'm grateful we get to continue sharing our lives together. Blessed be! Resteemed!

so touchy a comment from our 1&only @everlove the cute mama with the legs to kill for ;) the @gardenofeden lady that exumes pure love in nature. so honored you garnished my declaration of pure love in steemit to steemians like you. Am ever grateful I met your likes in steemit. thanks for the lovely supports and comment. and my regards to Noka and Quiqi! in Eden and their famous dad @quineaker who is tutoring me on a loving care for my unborn child!

Hehehehe--you're so funny @kenhudoy. I am grateful for all the love and for the connection we are finding with so many of us. Regards are given. You are wise to tune into what @quinneaker has to share. I've truly never witnessed anything like the way he cherishes, honors, respects and holds space for his children. The world would truly be better place if we, as parents, took the responsibility to make change. Thanks for the comment and for being here.

Mmm, what a beautiful comment @everlove. i can literally feel the love in this post!

Yay---it's YOU eco-alex!!! So glad you're here and feeling the love. So very much love!! Hopefully we will spread that through Steemit and ignite a spark that undeniably connects us all. Thanks for showing up--I'm grateful to see your shining spirit here.

Thank you @everlove ! Yes Ken brought me here with his comment about his love poem for Steemit. I just had to check it out of course ;-) I think i do need to 'get out' more often!

its lovely to be acknowledged as a shining spirit! Today I am shining a little bit more as I took up this #meditation-challenge and am learning to detach and enjoy the moment like i haven't in a long time.. Love & Light <3

I for one would sure like to see you around more.
I guess I could feel your shine come through - glad to see the #meditation-challenge is having a great impact. Guess I'll have to go that way and see for myself. Love and Light back to you!

yes, the magic is coming back! Now i just remembered i have to stay grounded as I get so much energy and can fly off to the moon if im not careful..

It sounds like you didnt try meditation before, is that what you are saying? If not, really really,.. try it for a week! Mmmmm

Grounding really does help keep things in perspective. Gratefully, I walk on the earth everyday with my bare feet, so I get the natural pull of the earth to keep me in connection.

My life is meditation, as I breathe to be present in every moment. Meditation for me is all of life, as is yoga, art, the food I eat and the air I breathe. I also do focused meditation regularly, as staying in tune with spirit is essential to my experience here in community. There are lots of energies to get tangled in if one is not centered.

I love that it is being shared here on Steemit and that there is the opportunity to share the experience with others also on the same path.

well, it sounds like you are doing more than OK everlove.. i think you nailed it there saying that life is a meditation, because that is the real goal.. to bring that state of being into every moment..

In India we call this Shanti.. Im Sure you heard of it! I have been gifted with the experience of Shanti many years ago, when for once I was totally aware and present with every movement, and even enjoying it.. Life was like an endless dance for many weeks, and even making a cup of tea was enjoyable.

I keep those memories as a guidepost to where I want to reach.. still got some ways to go!

<3 love and light <3

I also have much love for steemit. I love writing and being able to share my love with everyone else. Steem on!! 😊

welcome as always dear @etilda

Great to read about your positive experience with Steemit. It is indeed true that Steemit changes one's life in many ways.

The first thing that stood out for me was how Steemit could help so much with its projects and philanthropy. The good part was that no one really has to donate anything, but only give out a high powered upvote(I am mainly referring to those with higher SP).

Of course, Steemit has a community like no other, believing in true freedom and decentralization. It is so diverse with people from so many countries and different cultures, even speaking different languages.

Excellent comment and I couldn't agree more. Upped

Awesome inspirational post @kenhudoy ! I always loved that song , and The late Great Nat King Cole !! Thanks for sharing , upped and resteemed !

I must admit, joining this community has been a life changing experience. It helped me see life from a while different perspective and even help me grow intellectually not forgetting that it added to my income.

I'm addicted to steemit now.

Thanks for sharing

Wow. Good one. Keep it coming. Upped

I don't know many people in real life who share my interests and my fundamental principles. On steemit I have found many like-minded people. In real life I come across as strange or corky or nerdy. Here on steemit, I found a community of people more like me. So I don't stand out as a weirdo.

It's just nice to know there are people out there who think the way I do, and to see that the life I dream of is absolutely possible and within my reach.

Wow. I so much feel you. Steemit is truly a testimony for many of us. Upped

True! Discover steemit and reading everyday about the blockchain revolution is giving me hope in the future, something that unfortunately i was starting to lose in the last few years ;)

Yes! I really understand where your love is coming from.. Steemit changes lives! its really kind of strange, yet amazing. I have no interest in reading the news anymore, or facebook for that matter.. Steemit replaced it all!!

AND now i literally and suddenly lost my job yesterday, which i have had for 15 years.. and now Steemit is my only source of income.. oh my god! not sure how this happened, but it has happened!

<3

Well sorry for the loss of job but hey, see it as blessing in disguise. Steemit for me is better than crypto trading especially if you look into many diverse business here like leading of steem power and making use of bot to double your post rewards. What better business can be available if one keep powering up steem and it shoots to the moon. Let's keep steeming hot so together we pop champaighn at the very top with love...

it always IS ( a blessing in disguise) and im quite excited for a new life off of the web developing scene.. ive been doing that for about 20 years now, so Very ready for a change..
