Dear @erikaharris You're very welcome! You're right, there is - and has always been - this tendency in society to suppress what is considered 'weak', even though it isn't necessarily weak. I appreciate your kind words.
By the way, when I said I 'kickstarted' a new project, I meant 'started'. It's not on kickstarter, but I made a project page on the platform Patreon. Ever heard of it? As a creative, I have been waiting for a long time for a place where people can follow and/ or support my work and Patreon - as well as Steem it - might just be it. As I'm not a photographer or a poet, but more of a (visual) storyteller, Steemit does not really seem to take off yet, so I'm going to give Patreon a serious try. I will keep blogging on here too though.
Have a great day!
