Are We Scared of Resteeming?

I was just thinking about this. I have seen a lot of people who hasn't resteem anything. Maybe not anything, but they almost never resteem. Why? What are we afraid of? That it will ruin our feed? That we will lose one out of 945 followers? That somebody will earn more money than you would? Why?

Resteeming and Steemit

Resteem can mean a lot of things: That something was funny, that something needed more attention, that someone needed support, that something was interesting.

When you resteem you are basically saying to everybody else: I liked that post, maybe you will aswell

On Steemit we are supposed to support eachother. That's why we upvote. We are saying: Here! Take some money that I have no idea where came from!

But most important

By resteeming we are rewarding the author. We are thanking him/her for the time they spent on writing that specific article. We are rewarding with money by upvoting. We are rewarding with love and respect by commenting. We are rewarding with everything we can give by resteeming.

When we resteem we are rewarding the author, while supporting the life of this community.

I am not saying you should resteem everything you see. Neither do I. I probably resteem 5 post a week. I made this post to inspire myself to resteem some more.

An inspiration to us all must be @craig-grant , @andrarchy and @fyrstikken Just to mention a few.

Check them out. They resteem like it was their life. Love it!

Thanks for reading!
