Welcome to steemit @tony19r :) These are some pretty intelligent observations for being here such a short time!
I know you are a part of the awesome community of @asapers, as am I, but I also belong to a group here called @newbieresteemday, and I'm coming back here with that "hat" on to upvote and resteem your post. If you click on the link in that message, you will find more information about @newbieresteemday, but basically we are here to welcome, support and mentor you; we also offer a wonderful group of people for you to get to know:) Here is a link to join our Discord group as well; it is an awesome place to meet others, ask questions, or simply chat to grow your community here!
Feel free to ask if you have any questions!
Thanks for your kind sentiment @lynncoyle1 together with the upvote and resteem .
I have indeed found some great people at @asapers who have shared their journeys together with providing some encouragement and I am glad to add you to that list and hope for more future interactions on @newbiersteemday Discord group.
That's awesome! The more people you have in your community, the better I think :) Looking forward to connecting someone on Discord then !
