Attenion MINNOWS, [You] have done well, I'm Impressed

STEEMIT is amazing and read here in this post some of the main reasons why....22 days in and [we] are just getting started.

I see many minnows making amazing posts and working so hard to get noticed. We are also upvoting and trying to make STEEM and our account values grow exponentially. While I am trying to make the BIG payday post and reading what the successful people on STEEM are going so well, I am reading all the new posts. Really reading them and leaving a reply to engage the poster (genuinely) as I am interested in their post and point of view on a subject. For the first few weeks here, I have been doing this and some days, I am very active, replying to several posts. I am meeting a lot of very nice people and hearing, in some cases, their stories about life and receiving advice.

To my surprise (I know the site works this way), but I am starting to see alerts in my wallet with a redeem button. To see that I [we] are getting paid for having conversations with people about our general interests is absolutely AMAZING. I know the amounts are small but they really start to add up. This has motivated me even further to read more, learn more and speak with even more interesting people. I got paid (a very small amount of course) to read a yummy recipe, add that recipe to my collection and enjoy it (that was the best part, next to getting paid for it).

Fellow Minnows, we need to thank the STEEM Gods for creating such a platform for us to enjoy AND they figured out a way for us to get paid doing it.

As I sit in amazement of this creation, I wanted to share something else with you.

This is my baby Gia (she is now 3 as of last week). It is the first time she ever (kind of) smiled. For some reason when I look at this picture from a video I took a while back when she was first born, I think that this, like half a smile she is doing, that she is telling me or us, that we have done something well and she is impressed. Like you just told her about a great idea, STEEMIt!! I keep sitting and watching it for along periods of time, its addictive. I know I am biased but I cannot help it. Those cheeks are HUGE and you just want to squeeze them. hehe

I hope everyone is having an awesome day!

Please leave any feedback or advice you may have.
