Inspired by Steem!

About a month ago I started blogging with a zero balance. It's now in the $100s! Yes that is considered peanuts to some whales.

Iam just in awe of the community and some of the people I have met. Although I have my vices, I refuse to be a hypocrite. I SHOULD be giving to charity with this extra cash.

There is one fellow by the name of @inphiknit who is making a real effort to brighten this often dark world! He reminded me not to be greedy myself! I should be working not just for myself but for the ideals that make me unique.

Steemit is changing lives in the real world. I hope you will all upvote as some of the proceeds of this post will go to his efforts. I have already donated as an advance.

Although I believe the greatest gift you can give is self sufficiency, some people just do not have the means to help themselves or their families. Food costs in Toronto Canada have gone up over %30
Please donate to @inphiknit food drive. I have already given him some SBD (modest $5 SBD).

If I can help him in his effort I can make a real change and feel even more accomplished.

Very inspired. I hope you are as well.

BB613 out and I hope you have a great weekend!

Agreed, steemit has the potential to change lives.
I am also inspired, thank you!

Nice post. I'm a newbie on steemit. Today is my fist day.

Upvoted.... That is incredible. I joined last week and I really don't understand how all the Steem Steem dollars and Steem power works yet. But I think I have made $1.08 in 3 days.

This one utmost beauty that we envision during the birth of steemgigs within steemit posts. Developers wanted a web interface outrightly but we stayed stubborn even though alot of manual compilation is involved, we know full lown #steemgigs posts can accomplish this real world beauty and incite new creativity as well as new deep-rooted relationships among steemians.

You are to be commended BB. CONGRATULATIONS. to help others is admirable.

as u wish......btw i'm helping new user

advertising your own post is tacky and irrelevant here.

B"H! I wish I could share the feeling you just gave me brother, but I don't have the right words...

I was thinking about the Rambam's charity list too. If you have any suggestions about how to anonymously help generate self-sufficiency from this platform, I would love to hear them, and would modify the goal upwards and accordingly. We should chat sometime^^

Although I want to thank you in the usual steemit way, please accept that I shouldn't vote for this...

If I had the answer to that, I would be a millionaire which I am not. Unfortunately nothing is really anonymous. I would have a farm if I could

The next best then is self sufficiency taught non-anonymously. Doing so from steemit into the real world is the difficulty in this case. (And my trade-skills are very hands-on, and not really teachable from the internet.) So far, this is why I went down Rambam's "give a fish" path.

Farming/food production would be great! That's your personal interest in an ideal world? Or the teaching others to farm aspect of it?

well really land should be cultivated. Instead humans are domesticated. Look at the grass in backyards and front lawns. So much waste. We aren't a even allowed farm animals as it's a by-law. We live in a debt based society. It's basically papered over slavery built on a ponzu scheme. Esav working his magic.

Yes. I'm immediately reminded of "Laminim v'lamalshinim" in the shemoneh esreh. B"H everyone will soon know and no one will try to replace Him anymore...
