RE: Happy Birthday Steem! (SURPRISE INSIDE)

in #happy8 years ago

Hi Mitchell :) I am one of those people that has the unfortunate tendency of missing several turns on the way to a party and arriving after most of the people have left (or passed out), but on the bright side I end up meeting some of the best of those who attended gathered on the balcony or an outside patio engaged in the kind of deep and intimate conversations that occur when only a handful of people are left. While those who came on time and left early spent their hours with polite introductions and surface Q and A, the late arrivals get to skip the formalities and head straight into meaningful discourse.
I'm hoping that analogy describes what will happen here. (I'm Linnet by the way, but I've grown to love the 'nickname' dreemit) Having just celebrated its first year of life, steemit is still a babe in the cyber world, but it's a special child, you might say it was conceived during a full moon when all of the stars were aligned, and that its birth was attended by supernatural visitors who bestowed magical gifts upon it. (I write fiction, can you tell?) This place has drawn the dreamers, the seekers, the artists, musicians, and writers. The adventurers and the explorers. The most creative beings on the globe seem to have been called here to gather and name this place their home.
So Mitchell, it sounds like you've been called to be a beacon to all of those who have yet to discover the wonder of this platform. It is a bold role in a place such as this, and I would love to hear your vision of the TomorrowLand that is steemit, an outline of your plan to reach the broader global community, and especially what I and the dear friends I've made here can do to aid you in your quest.
Welcome to the community, and I wish you much love inspired luck in your endeavor!
