It took awhile to convince my best friend to take Steemit seriously. I had to go through the dirt and mud to show the consistency and perseverence required to be a true Steemian who is wholeheartedly engaged in the community to make Steemit a better place for everyone, contributing what quality and art I am able to and relating what success I would have directly to him. The picture above is him and I at my going away party back in 2013 when I officially moved to Germany to be with my wife @happyharmonymay right after she had just given birth to our daughter Harmony.
Here is me, @Mordiki, my other best friend @Edgarstudio, and my good friend Jeremy at my going away party
@Mordiki, who I have know for more than 16 years, is a brother to me, and is an Uncle to my two children, is hands down without a doubt a stand up, loyal person. Check out his intro here.

My favorite older cousin Tyson, and favorite younger cousin Tyler, Me and @Mordiki, at Tyler's graduation almost 8 years ago.
Me and @Mordiki have never had a proper argument about anything, he is super laid back and chill, good sense of humor, and is in tune with nature and adventurous. It doesn't matter how long it has been, when we catch up with one another it is like it was yesterday. Those are the best friendships/brotherly relationships to have. No guilt trips, no doubts. The best thing is, he introduced me to my first Youth Group back when I was 12 years old, when my faith in Jesus Christ was beginning to truly take root. A beautiful blessing indeed. All glory to God.
I often told him about how revolutionary Steemit was and I just couldn't get him to commit fully, but I wanted him to succeed because I know just how messed up life can be and I can just say, without putting his private business out there, that, he is truly one strong, resilient man who has had his share of horrible trials and tribulations, and is still pursuing life to the fullest. I am sure you all will get to know more about him and support him as he contributes a lot of great things to the community. He is multitalented to say the least, being a chef, musician, world traveler, Native American Indian and more. We have way too many memories, both crazy and funny to share. Now that he has joined officially, maybe I can open up about some light hearted and deep stuff as well.
Thanks again everyone who will give him a chance, and welcome my brother/best friend @Mordiki, it really means a lot to me and I aim that he becomes a big inspiration and person of influence here in our wonderful Steemit community.
Thank you for reading & viewing this post in its entirety, I hope you enjoyed it for what it's worth.
