Hello @getonthetrain,
I first read your post on some blog on my regular web crusing :) i believe it was this one, it was nice hearing your story on how you started with steemit, it inspired me not to give up on steemit even more, and thanks for that.
So after reading that post i decided to follow you up here :) , as your words have resonated with me.
Now i had a chance to read some of your other content, great job my friend!!
To specifically comment on this particular post, it reminded me of a great TED talk i recently watched for the second or third time, it talks about one of a kind, 75 years research done by a harvard university on happiness and it trully emphasises the importance of relationships in our lives not only for our happines but for our actualy livelihood and health.
If you didnt had a chance to see it I really recommend:

Keep writing awesome content, ill be following :)
Best of luck
Peace

Oh, wow, thanks. Yes, that is my blog there. :D
I just finished watching the TEDx talk you linked, and what a great talk it was. Thanks for linking it. Relationships are certainly a powerful link to your happiness.
I'll be looking out for your work here too.
You have some great content on the blog, though I have to be honest, it needs a little "facelift" user experience wise...
I see you using wordpress..you can try to simply using a more modern theme with better spacing and content presentation, styling, nicer CSS etc...
I have years of web programming experience, perhaps we can collaborate on that in the future ...
till then keep up the good work :)
Oh yeah, my crappy theme. That's been on my list - just that Steemit has commanded my time as of late. I appreciate the feedback on it though, I love no shit talk :D
I created the site as a way to profit off my older articles here - one of the downsides of the way we earn on Steemit.
Do you have any WP themes that you like for me to look into?
