RE: Two months on Steemit. What have I learned & how can it help newbies?

in #life7 years ago

Good on ya @bearone Wow you're young! Mine was 1973ish Shit I'm old 😂
I was terribly aggressive for years as a result but it wasn't who I wanted to be. Took a long time for me to change and I had to leave the area, and indeed the country to achieve it. When you travel to some of the poorest countries in the world and see people who are stuck in a miserable existence with no possibility of escape you learn humility and the shit you went through seems trivial in comparison.
The old me is still lurking underneath but hopefully he'll stay there.
Thanks for sharing your story and reading mine.

I hear you. I'm glad you've risen above it. Yes life gives us some shitty situations but ultimately we have the power to choose how and who to be and youve done that ❤

I find my aggressive alter ego comes in handy sometimes lol Id rather not whip out the old girl but somedays she just gets the job done you know?

The old me pops out now and again to deal with morons but he's under control 😀
I did this piece today as I was sick of hearing people go on about whales and their money.

Hahah I read it, commented and agree with all your points. Still it was very mild and mellow :)
