It gets weirder the manner in which people come up to me and they are being so thanksful... - @ejemai
First of all, I don't wish to be sycophantic about this and for the record I think that would be the last thing I would ever be doing. But if you think that is what i am doing then you need to know what it is was like walking in my shoes before @ejemai @samstickkz and @vwovwe impacted my life.
The last Christmas of 2018 was in fact the worst time in my entire existence, not many people cry in that time in the year but i did make me take deep resolutions about my life for some hard and some heartbreaking reasons.
I don't think anybody prepares himself for all that much sadness as what i experienced
What was my experience?
As the 7th child of my Family I have got elder siblings and it is completely normal for anyone to think that I am properly cared for their siblings but and it makes me wonder why people think that way and it is really a limited way of thinking and I don't subscribe to that style it old fashion and couple with the fact that
i like being a my own man and it hasn't been easy.
The truth of the matter is that my parents aren't getting any younger and they are getting tired of certain kinds of responsibility and it only a year before i leave school and it really needed to hold on to something but there wasn't anything for me to that and i was completely worried about it.
I got home form the Christmas break from school, expecting I was going to be welcomed to comfort but it was entirely the opposite, the one week at home was devoid of peace.
I think as soon as my parents saw me it triggered thoughts in their head that elicited a kind of defense mechanism, we are all wired that because their thoughts probably would have been centered on how they were going to make budgets for me to go back to school. To them it was like
"What bring you dude?" or "this dude is here again"
They have actually been through a lot.
I had a argument with my mom, I always hold my parents in good hopes most especially my mom but she didn't want to understanding at this point.
I saw it was no point staying at home doing nothing so I left the following morning which was the third of January 2018 back to school. While in the vehicle on my way back I was thinking about my life although my entire journey, I asked myself question i didn't even have answers to.
I was depressed so as soon as i got back to Uyo I sought the company of my friends.
While with my friends i heard some people discussing about making some cash out from a post they made (at this point i am so proactive when i hear key words like money being mentioned)
I thought to myself that those were bloggers but i was hesitant for a while and the thought i had was something relating to the regular style of blogging and i didn't have any money for any expenditure after sometime i just told myself that i had to go talk to them no matter my constraints
I got into a conversation with one of them and discovered i didn't need a dime to be on steemit blogger, some minutes later i had my account created and the next day I was sent my password that was how I got involved with steemit,
I haven't cashed out my first earnings to prove anything to some skeptics around me because everyone has his moment and mine had come and what i needed to do was entirely in my hand to choose.
I am not interested in canceling anyone's doubt at this point in my life I am too lazy for all that and i don't think i want to be down that road anytime soon. The good news is
I have peace of mind now and i don't have reason to worry anymore about some uncertain future.
I attended the launching event of the Uyo hub accelerator this January 2018 and i came to discover a new family.
On Friday last week i attended a seminar hosted by steemit Uyo and @ejemai was the speaker, he shared his experiences and i am grateful to him and @samstickkzz for their hard work and commitment to seeing that steemit Uyo is existent today.
@ejemai said it gets weirder by the day the way people approach him to talk about how grateful they are, Sir you just haven't seen a damn thing yet, Thanks to @ejemai @samstickkz and @vovewe for bring me steemit to me.
Dream whale
