Hi fellow steem team its the chocolate stranger here, just trying to get the hang of things

New to the site, just explorin and enjoyin. I will share a poem I wrote years back hoping it will get my time in the right frame of mind.
Why in this world is there so much anger and hate
We must take time to contemplate
With free thought you will free the solution
Just follow your mind body and soul and take down these institutions
Various institutions are what keep us bound
Bound by the chains(change)in our pockets created when America was found
Controlling us and every aspect of our life
For some to get a penny the only resort is a knife
Thats fucked up in this world that we live in
People need to stop instigatin and need to start givin
Money money money is all we ever see
people buyin houses and clothes to embody an unknown identity
the material possessions you own don't make up who you are
If you think they do, you will not travel too far
you'll be stuck where you are trying to break free
forget that shit my dude and commence the resurrection of your identity

Greetings thebrown, I hope you enjoy it here!

I have observed that people get upset or frustrated when they ask someone to follow them, and that doesn’t occur. There was a reason, following someone was reserved for someone whom you identified with, or you enjoyed their posts, things of that nature.

That kind of following is almost negligible now, since everyone wants to be followed no matter what they have to offer. I have found a sort of solution.

Now days, I follow whomever I comment upon; no matter what. I ask too, that they follow me; I will up vote them as well, if they provide decent content. If I don’t really appreciate their posts, I mute them. Problem solved. So I will follow you, please follow me.

FYI: you actually get more rewards if you up vote others posts, and comment/reply to your own postings. In other words, the more people you help, the more people help you.

I, @carltong, have all kinds of information on my blog, including faucets for free coin. Check my blogs out for that data, as this welcome greetings is just that, a sincere welcome to the greatest social platform on Planet Earth.

I would share two more things with you; first and foremost AVOID BITCOINSBRAIN! It is a HYIP site that stole about $1000 from me. It is a scam. Here is my take on HYIP’s.

IF IT SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN IT’S NOT TRUE!

I was so gullible on BitcoinsBrain, that I took all my other coins and invested them into this fund. I was still texting and sending messages a full two weeks after they quit paying me. I could not grasp that I had been ripped off.

Secondly, @jerrybanfield is perhaps the strongest Steemian on Steem today. Check his site out for a free tutorial on how to use Steem. I took it and have learned plenty.

I hope things go well for you on here and once again, WELCOME to STEEMIT!!!

Sincerely,
@carltong
