Interesting read! I see you have been on steemit for some time now so I am sending you some love. This post was nice so I upvoted it and I hope to read more from you in the future!
As a newcomer to steemit, it's not easy getting those first upvotes so you should try out Steemfollower where you can earn up to 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I have more info on it in this post where I go over the system in more depth and, believe it or not, this has become my most upvoted post yet.
Nice
