Hi @janicewald, I saw your post in #steemsugars :)
It can be disheartening that the Steem price (or rather, most cryptos) is going down. But if you put aside the money aspect for now, and focus on the community, the time and energy you spend here will be a worthy investment on the platform (in the long run). Most of us do believe that this is just a season, and are pushing through, focusing on the other aspects of Steemit that make it such an amazing place.
Hope to see you more in Steemsugars :)
