Thanks for the shoutout and for always speaking your mind. I also appreciate you highlighting @kyriacos' comments. I've had many disagreements with that individual and hope for them to learn some non-violent communication for more effective relationship and community building, but I also recognize some people are just different than I am. Some people are fine with personal attacks and cussing to express their negative emotions. I can't force everyone into my box or my perspective of how communities should be healthy. We may not all agree, but I do think we can get along and respect each other.
My biggest hope:
Let's not operate under fear.
Fear Steemit will collapse. Fear we may not get noticed. Fear our investments of money or time will go to zero. Fear we will be misunderstood. Fear we won't build relationships and no one will care.
Fear turns off the parts of our brains we need most.
Thanks for being fearless, @stellabelle.
