Steemit is real! A gift from a fellow Steemian

Many people (including some friends of mine) think that cryptocurrency exists only online and that people use it to hide their identity for illicit activities. I think that Steemit and other blockchain applications provide many different ways for people to connect with each other, and this is why I try to encourage real world interactions and meaningful conversations with your fellow Steemians if this is the community that you want to see.

So a package arrives in the mail today...

I was very excited because ever since I won a contest by @armadilloman just 20 days ago:
https://steemit.com/contest/@armadilloman/winner-steem-symbol-minimalist-card-wallet-giveaway-we-have-a-winner

and was due to receive a beautifully crafted Steemit minimalist wallet (which is available for a bargain now with current Steem prices if you ask me)

...I have felt that Steemit was no longer just some fanciful thing in the 'cloud' :)

@papa-pepper also says it is one of the best buys of the year for him! I am glad to finally have something in common with him :D

The package came with a message and was personally signed by @armadilloman as well, which I thought was a nice touch. He was also meticulous enough to put the leather wallet in a plastic bag to make sure it arrived in 'mint condition'!

Well, this is to let you know that your wallet has arrived safely and I am so happy to be able to replace my current wallet, which is a piece of plastic close to falling apart...

With something that slips nicely into the back or side pocket and keeps me to only my essential cards :)

Thats must be a special thing to have when they get in touch in real life instead of virtually on steemit platform .. jeez envy grow haha

I wanted to start an 'art swap' between all the incredibly talented people on Steemit because I didn't just want to see something on a computer screen without being able to see it in real life. I am thinking of proposing it to the @steemartists Discord group and see if we can try to keep Steemit real :D

Yeah..thats a great idea..and I know there is a link to which I know doing the same thing it called steem that .. and that is one of the thing that this platform need two way trade haha

It would be great if you can find the link because I'd be keen to participate :) I do like to think of Steemit as a two-way street.

https://steemthat.com/social-portal/ here it is hope you are not lost finding lol

Looks very interesting :) I never managed to come across it before so it goes to show that you learn something new everything, especially when it related to blockchain related stuff :p

take it as one great adventure to explore the virtual world... because that the only thing I can afford to do beside stick with my gaming activity online...and there are more stuff to be explored ....with your ability I think you can be more successful than anyone else...I'm just want to learn more and I know I can't have a good quality post or articles right now i just try to forget about having a good reward too..cause I know my article don't have value or what so ever....I just try to put my message in my post..thats all

To me if you write something that come from your own heart or mind then it definitely has value on Steemit... at least you have about 700 other people that think so :)

People used to say that playing games was not something that you can take seriously or make a career out of it, but now even watching people playing games (i.e. Twitch) is big! Humans have always been playing games and it is an important part of learning.

I think we limit ourselves to what we can achieve on Steemit, and if you keep learning and growing you'll find the path to success here!

Wow, very nice wallet! That old one was way past done.

That was something that I pick up at the newsagent that you can use to hold bus tickets/metro cards, so every time it starts falling to pieces I just go and get a new one. But now I have a Steemit leather wallet I won't need to :)

The fact that it is customized makes it even more beautiful and special,not to talk of the nice note. This is lovely!

I need to start working out what I can make and give to other Steemians as well! It is such a great feeling to see something that you create in a different part of the world, enjoyed by someone who appreciates it :)

I am glad @plushzilla you finally got it. Heavens the mail is slow going that direction. I can get stuff out of China in 7 or 8 days. Enjoy and glad you reposted Wanda. She likes all the screen time she can get.

I am relieved that it didn't get lost somewhere in transit (something that happens more often than you think in Australia). Wanda was an important part of the process so I had to include her in the post somewhere :D

It's so cool! Is amazing see how the contact with the people of differents country is real. In steemit we are a lot of people, talking about sooooo differents areas, but the thing that we have in common is that we want to connect with each other, and share about the importants things that we think that the life is!

Yes, your are absolutely right! I can see that you have been busy doing some photography posts, but I can't understand any of the text :p
