Sometimes I think of Steemit as a Giving Tree.
You water it with your posts and your votes and your comments and it bears you fruit in the form of rewards:
I can’t think of any place else online that gives you so much in return for your time.
If you haven’t yet found the rewards that you’re looking for, be patient. It takes time for trees to grow and even more time for them to bear fruit.
And sometimes it’s important to remember that just seeing and experiencing the tree is a reward in and of itself.
That is one of the most amazing trees I have ever seen! And I love The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. You give a great message too @boxcarblue "remember that just seeing and experiencing the tree is a reward and of itself." So true.

Nice analogy of Steemit as a giving tree. Thanks for sharing.
When you have time, please do take a look at my blog where I tried my hand at writing - a chain of thoughts on solitude - inspired by my wildlife picture instead of just putting the picture. Thanks

Are these some of the rewards, or other places like Steemit that are well worth spending your time?

I meant in monetary rewards. But obviously there more important thjngs you can spend your time on. I am not completely disagring with you. Steemit is the best in its onw category. It was just my 2 cents. Nice post.

Now I see what you meant. Thanks for clarifying. You're right, if the purpose of the time you are spending is to make money, there are other places that may reward you more heftily. Like you said, Steemit is in its own category.

Yes! Nicely put, @boxcarblue :)
That's a good way to think of it - watering a tree.
I like the Steemit leaves you put on that tree :)

I wish I could have figured out how to blend the background better. I'm glad you liked them, though.

The tree-metaphore is perfect! The newcomers' trees are seedling yet and need lots of watering. And then they begin to bloom and grow fruits

That's how it sometimes seems to me. One's blog, one's reputation, one's relationships and communications, they all need to be nurtured and grown well.
Thanks for commenting.

Yes I totally agree! I have been on FB, YT, Tsu, Rabadaba, 8app, Clickasnap, Wowapp, etc and I believe that Steemit is superior to all of them in terms of both earning money AND meeting nice folks and making friends!
Great tree BTW. It has such bowed branches! I am about a day late but I'm trying to get caught up! Thanks for doing Tree Tuesday!

Of course. It's one of my favorite events to participate in. That's a lot of social media platforms. I haven't tried half of them, but I don't think they would keep me like Steemit has.
