Today I learned that I have no business being on steemit. I'm not an artist, I'm not a writer and I have no idea what I'm reading in most posts. I'm more into a @benjojo memes post or a @dumar022 #whysoserious post.

When I read most witness post, I'm lost. I'm laughing right now as I type this, because I realize that I have not the brain capacity to understand the content.

The computer talk or technical talk is way over my head. I have no idea what I'm reading and I catch myself reading posts over and over, hoping that I will absorb just a little more everytime I read them.

When It comes down to it, I'm more of a hand shovel ditch digger, a lawnmower operator, farm laborer or the most generic of all super heroes.

I'm @runridefly, and I appreciate every upvote and every follower. Thank you

You might not realize it, but you motivate a lot of people here on steemit...I actually look forward to your post and also your commentary...Your comments let me know I'm on the right track creatively...And also, the way you care for your sons (In your pics) Influences many men here on steemit. (Including myself) It shows us what a real "Superhero" should look like! Never doubt yourself my friend...Your presence here Is always needed:) Take care-

@steemit-life, you have to be one of the coolest guys on this crazy steemit train ride. Always enjoy hour posts. Steem On Friend!

we all belong here.

@lifeworship, i guess it wasn't an accident. I will continue to Steem On. Thank you.

post what YOU want to post.. I like writing about national security the most, but my best post money-wise was a throwaway on hot buttered rum!

there are a lot of people with different interest here!

...although it seems like EVERYONE likes hot buttered rum

mmm buttered rum its better than doughnuts.

LOL

Think of the children.
ask them to help you out.

You're one of our most fav. people on here- you are friendly and supportive. More great photos and the Steemit costume was a beaut.

I did LOL when you said this:

the most generic of all super heroes.

Hang in there! We are struggling a bit also - lets do it together!

@armyofgreenmen, hang in there...this idiot is following you.

Indeed you are, sir!
Seriously, I respect everyone who can call themselves idiots, as it shows how smart is the person. Also, I laughed, because I can relate lol

@writingamigo, I'm glad I am not alone here. Appreciate the comment my friend. Steem On Dude!

Approved
This Man insists, idiots are people too!

@nonameslefttouse, thank you man.

Anytime. Being good at being a goof isn't easy. It takes confidence and honesty to present your true self to this world. I don't worry about all of the fancy words and those who present themselves as the smart ones. We're all actors and life is a performance. You seem happy, so what the hell else matters? I doubt anyone thinks of you as a lesser person, and if they do, that attitude makes them lose by default.

You can make a baby balance while I still can't manage that.

@saiku, baby balancing is simething I understand.

Good. another one join the #whysoserious movement.

The demographics will expand, don't worry too much about it, this is "early adopter phase".

I guess the more you read them the witness posts will eventually start to make since. Of course if you really want to understand it all completely you could simply become a witness. But I think you are a writer and photographer so just stick with it. It feels like running a marathon small steps all add up and one day you can finish the race.

a journey of a thousand miles..
....begins with a single step.

I feel exactly the same, I want to understand but find it difficult, your good at what you know so stick with that :)

@karenb54, thank you for the comment. We continue to steem On!

Its too much fun not too 😆

don't feel bad about it man... I don't consider my self a genious either so I can relate. @pharesim and me had a chat at steemfest about his PEvO project during the event, I found my self in a position to try to understand how scientific community publishes researching material and scientific documents in a way to understand what kind of breakthrough his project is suggesting. I didn't get to understand everything other that my understanding for what is happening in our world is way more outdated than what it should be happening given the tools we today have.

So I guess, in the end of the day we all just try to support what we believe can make the difference and we use our votes here to achieve that.

What I want to say is " I am an idiot too, welcome to steemit and have a nice day" :D

I love @runridefly lol, supported me when I was new, and kept with me.

I am challenged w all this crypto stuff too - so for ex. I still don't even know what PEVO is lol!

Not the sharpest but I try hard!

Hello @runridefly, I'm a writer, a photographer, a philosopher, and all around argumentative little shit.

So if this is a good place for me, then it's a good place for you.

We have lots of creatives here, lots of thinkers. but what we don't have is lots of you. We only have one you. And since that's all the yous there are in the whole world, then it looks like we cornered the market.

Bonus!

It takes all types to make this big ole world go around. I have often seen where the most simple and elegant solution to a problem was given by one that thought they were an idiot when in fact they were a hero and genius. just keep on keeping on.
