Well, you have not let me down @stellabelle I just referred to you in a post I made a few days ago. You ARE a straight-shooter:

Have been on this platform for just over 30 days now and spent a great deal of that time wading through posts that had no meat. I'm hungry for content....good content that people can actually use.
It was not the cryptocurrency that lured me in (although I now see the importance of it) but was in fact the hopes of finding a new platform that would allow me to expand outreach and to coordinate with like minded people that work toward a more Fully Informed Public.
My interest in your give-away excites me because it may be that the more SP one has the more voting power is available. (I've not figured that part out yet but I think SP stands for Steem Power)
Like I said, I have spent an enormous amount of time sifting through posts looking for content. There are exceptional posts by incredible people on the Steemit platform wanting to make a difference in the world but as a little minnow I find there is never enough Steem Power in my wallet to make a vote really count.
My plans for how to best use Steemit as a resource for the coordination and information dissemination continues to grow. I would like to create a path for new Steemians I may invite which will make their experience a bit easier to get started. I do think at this point all the you upvote me, I upvote you BS would be a turn-off for many of these groups.
People are busy, we live in a precarious time. Those that are pushing themselves everyday to keep a good flow of information going are short on time. Anything we can do to make their experience more productive, we should do. I do thank you for all you do help us do better and to create a platform we can be very proud of.
Let peace be the journey!
Wow is not enough when I read what you wrote. I am amazed and feel blessed whenever I see people that makes me feel that there is hope for humanity. I really felt disillusioned yesterday when I read the truth that nobody wanted to say out loud. Appreciate the candor of the OP and it did bring this discussion of wanting to change things.
And here you are a person with so much beauty and compassion for her fellow man. We need more people like you in Steemit.
Honestly I could do away with selfies because I can look in Instagram for that. I came here to read, to know and learn new things about culture. To see how people live and record their lives through posts and to be inspired by people like you.
God you made me emotional here. A problem sir empaths like me we get too emotional at times. But thank for these words. They are a gift.
Sorry but here is a virtual hug from me.

Thank you @maverickinvictus I think it all boils down to the opportunity we can envision. This platform offers many options for the diverse users of this community. When people begin to "get out of the box" they will eventually see there "never was a box", it was only a perception they accepted as a limitation.
We, (you, me and everyone) have the ability to make the changes that are needed and each of us carry a piece to make it work for the greater good. Excited to be here with you.
