My Steemit thoughts after a week (400 follows

in steemit •  7 years ago 

I like it . My first time blogging,just saying this sounds funny to me. I don't consider myself a blogger at all I don't even like writing or texting. I like using the microphone voice recorder so it's no surprise that I chose a app called Anchor as my first app .

At 42 years old I preferred the audio app . It felt natural to me to hear people's voices, their tone , their laughter and tears , their emotions in real time but 2 years later the app changed into a version that was very difficult to communicate with people like before . Now you're a podcaster Where it's more difficult to meet and talk to people . It was not the same.
So when I heard of @steemit from my friends @allowisticartist and @unityeagle I thought of a place where I can meet people from different parts of the world and find out what they're eating what they're seeing , what they're feeling and what they're hearing but it's kind of difficult to find people here.
I'm bombarded every day by bit coin talk , currency this currency that it's all about the upvotes as a matter fact I was told today that they much rather I just upvote if I like their post rather than try to talk to them because all they care about was the upvote , they felt that me reaching out was spammy lol I get that there's a way to make money here but must we obsess over it . at the end of the day its about getting to know my fellow humans from around the world .
ITS BEEN ABOUT A WEEK AND IVE REACHED 400 FOLLOWERS TODAY .
I want to thank you all for your friendship .And since you don't have my phone number feel free to reach out to me here and ask me anything.

Amen brother... The focus should be more on the connections, not monetary rewards :)

Hey man I just checked out some of your posts I like what you're putting out there I really like that Texas holdem post I just seen it and I couldn't resteemit because it was seven days old so that sucks.

Thanks a lot. I like to post random Topics that pop into my head :) and I see you have the same type of cool random post. How cool is that? Are you involved with steem poker league? I just heard of it last night and openned an account. @spl holdem poker, winning steem =crzy shit. I'm gonna try it today.

Hey Pokerman I’m very pleased you gave it a try and yes there always will be people chasing the money or crypto but the main reason the majority of people spend their precious time on here is for the great connections and engagement so just keep doing what you’re doing I’m so proud of you. We love you 😘

And what you accomplished is amazing you gain more followers in a week then Vincent and together after a month so way to go my friend

Wow! You have come a long way in just a week here.
Congrats! I have been here a few months now and love it! Some improvements are coming soon, like communities, which should make it easier for us to find like minded people.

That sounds great

You are a very good blogger. Go ahead and be successs!!

Thank you very much

You gain, when you act as if there is nothing to gain. I think that should be the motto of steemit.

send some of your followers my way please :) lol

I'm just now seeing this and i'm passed 600 right now lol. If you want more followers try following more people . Try following people that are following me

With over 400 followers in less than a month you must be doing something right. I'm not really on here to make huge amounts of money either. It would be nice but it isn't the panacea for all ills it seems. I'd absolutely hate being famous as well. I'm on here to amuse myself not pander to others as a means to make money out of them. Good luck to you. I've followed and upvoted. You do exactly what you want lol

Preach! I first joined steemit because of the sole reason to connect and share with other people. :) Making friendship and building connections.

Exactly
