Indeed Eve! I am particularly happy to be part of the Promo-mentors and everything that we are doing to make Steemit easier for new folks.
It gets overwhelming at times when I get so many messages and I try to do my best to help out.
The interactions in itself is reward especially when you see someone get a curied vote or featured in OCD. You are happy for the success of other people.
Indeed I count a lot of people here in Steemit as close friends now and always look forward to their new posts and talks in Discord.
