RE: Make It Easy - I Doubt That Will Happen.

in #busy6 years ago


I worked as a special education teacher for 30 years, working with emotionally handicapped children and loved every minute of it. Having a family of six and trying to make it on a teacher's salary was impossible. Side work was a must. A year ago both my wife and I retired. Now I have the time to do something like this. I have been a member since May 2018 and when I look back at the posts I have completed it gives me more satisfaction than I could have ever imagined.
The satisfaction comes from realizing that my blood will have a chance to get to know me a little better as I leave an account of a very small part of my life. Generations from now will be able to see their Grandfather, Great Grandfather and so on.
For me leaving memories is what it is all about. Don't get me wrong, I feel that I post some very good content and it is nice to be recognized by others. My father once told me nothing in life is free and if it seems to be, give it back because it will only cost you down the road.My son #ryan313 has been a member of the Steemit community since June 2017. He is the one who got me involved with Steemit. The selling point for me was that he said " Dad, you can leave an account of yourself on steemit that will be there forever."
