RE: I Was The Patron Saint of Postcards in California: Adventure Lies on the Other Side of Fear

it did. It is partly the reason I am here. That time came because of the bankers.....I lived out this fantasy when the economy split apart due to the predatory loans, and my 401K nearly dissolved before my eyes. As I broke free, during this time Bitcoin was born. It was for me the time that i began to realize that corporations cannot really fulfill us. I also knew that I would have to rely on myself in the future. This was the beginning of those realizations. It's all connected.

Yes!! I feel connected to this because I just lost my job when I discovered steemit. But before then, I had grown tired of the corporate world and the rat race and the stagnancy. I wanted out so bad that when the axe fell, I felt nothing.

I was having my bath one morning after three weeks in steemit and I had that eureka moment. I am free, I screamed. I can be whoever I want to be, do whatever I loved to do, be wherever I want to be. The feeling was unbelievable. Since that day, I have been having the time of my life.
