@raj808 you do have a way with words! Thank you for sharing them so vividly!

I applaud you for facing the struggles and your commitment to unencumber your life. Steemfest is truly a dream. I have no doubt that if it is important for you to be there, so shall it be. Blessings on your journey!

Thank you @everlove, I wanted to do something different for my entry, and when I looked at the other steemfestdreams posts, no one had written or performed poetry. Fiction and poetry are kinda my bag 🙂 so I thought why not.

The unencumbered life.... That seems like a dream sometimes too. I had plans to travel the world as a digital nomad, which I haven't given up on, but this illness needs to be sorted out first. Sometimes it feels like an uphill struggle but I try to look on it all as a challenge to overcome, rather than something I will have to live with for the rest of my life.

Thanks for your comment and support 👍

I love that you chose an inspired way to make your entry and that you gave the contest a fresh perspective.

Challenges are opportunities for solutions, and for upgrades that make our lives richer and us more empowered. Go @raj808!!! I hope to see you at SF3. May the force be with you!

Thank you for making a submission!

Thanks for the opportunity to enter such a great competition @dynamicgreentk. I'm staying hopeful, but have read some of the many other deserving entries and know there are a lot of hopeful people out there. Best of luck to everyone and to the steemfest team in general.

I couldn’t think of a more deserving Steemian to send to Steemfest than you @raj808! I’m constantly amazed by how you can remain so active in so many different great projects on the Platform, yet consistently produce such quality content on a day to day basis!

Best of luck on the contest 🙂

Thanks Tristan. It would be amazing if I get to go and rep Project Giving as well as myself. 🙂 Fingers crossed for SF Krakow 2018.

Good luck with the contest @raj808. We would be proud to have you represent Project Giving at steemfest 3 in Krakow.

Thank you Project Giving. After all that waiting to find out about Sndbox cohort 2 and now I've found myself another thing to wait and wonder about lol. It's all good though, thanks for the luck I'm keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

Hi raj, i'm fara, can i have your personal discord? Its about project giving that i want to discuss to you

Hi @fararizky. My username is the same on discord as steemit: raj808 :-)

can you reach me at fararizky#6541

People seems to be fine but some goes thru a lot quietly. It is hard to share some personal struggles but helps when you talk about it. I hope you get that ticket and I hope steem rises up again real soon. It would help a lot people. Take it easy bro.

Thanks for your understanding @watersnake101

It is difficult to live queitly with an illness sometimes, but I have found over the last 4 years that I do more harm than good talking and thinking about it all the time. Some people can find solice through sharing, others just end up obsessing about what they can't change. I'm in the latter category. Anyway....

I am keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 for the competition and hopefully, maybe.... I may be rockin it in Krakow in November 🙂

Cheers for your support.

This is such a great post! I hope you win, even if that means I don't. ;)

Awww thanks @katrina-ariel that is such a kind sentiment. I wish you all the luck in the world with your entry too!

I am keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 for the competition and hopefully, maybe.... I may be rockin it in Krakow in November. If it isn't me, I hope you will be the lucky one 🙂

Cheers for your support.

Fingers crossed for you that you win a ticket! And fingers, toes, arms, legs, and eyes crossed for you that the market turns around and you can pay off that bill, and not be as financially strapped as you are. Best of luck! 💜

Thanks @traciyork

I am keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 too. Cheers for the possitive energy on the bill also, it is more possative energy than the energy company have been sending my way recently 😏

Cheers for your support.

You're very welcome, @raj808! 😊
