They may only be thoughts but they are honest and vulnerable thoughts of which I feel have great value.
To me health and happiness is of the utmost importance. I have been dedicated to the cause of improving the world and creating real solutions to real problems and work on it 7 days a week. It is a burden sometimes but when I am doing what I truly believe in it fuels me despite the weight of the responsibility.
I know I don't know you that well but it seems to me that Steemit is part of your destiny. You have been quite an influence over the life of Steemit and continue to help it grow and thrive.
I think you would not only help this community a great deal by just focusing on Steemit but that you would also be well compensated for it so that you may sustain your own life and not need to exhaust your self with other jobs.
I hope to be able to contribute something valuable to you one day and am grateful for all you have contributed to this community.
thanks for your kind response and opinion.
Thank you for all your love and contributions to this community and for responding to my comment!
I am finding it a bit challenging to respond to everyone...it's true...You one of the ones who I think is the next generation....I think you already live in an ecovillage eh?
Oh yes I completely understand how many comments you get and how much time that would require to respond sufficiently to each one. I don't think you should feel obligated to respond to all comments especially with how much spam and lame comments there are these days.
That is why I specifically thanked you not only for what you contribute to this community but for responding to my comment as I am aware of how much time u spend on all of that already.
Yes I am a HUGE proponent of living in conscious sustainable community. I founded and built The Garden of Eden 9 years ago and it gets better every year!
We fed 40,000 free meals in just one year, plus we educate tens of thousands a year on health, building, gardening, sustainable living, craft and trade skills and much more.
If you want to check it out you can.

this is cool, and part of the vision i have for my own community. I think I could learn a lot from yours.
Yes I am sure there is much to learn and I am sure you also have much you could contribute.
We all have our strengths and weaknesses. yet the truly powerful and revolutionary aspect of community that I love. Is that when people come together for common purpose with common ideals we are still individuals but also one in a way. We help each other with our problems and we contribute our skills/resources.
When the community is actually living together in common purpose and ideals then the problems/burdens are greatly lessoned and the contributions/skills greatly enhanced.
It is amazing what we can get done every day when working together. There are people that don't have to cook or grow food yet still every day get to eat delicious and nutritious foods. Because they don't have to spend any time cooking, cleaning, growing food nor do they have to PAY for it, they are extraordinarily freed up to focus on they skills/contributions to the greater picture.
I could go on and on but my point is that we can all be different but all participate in something together. When we let go of competition, jealousy, lust, power, control etc and focus on peace, harmony love and sharing miracles happen. What one accomplishes everyone in the community accomplishes because we are all doing it together.
Everything is amplified when in harmonized purpose∞§∞
