My First Post: I Invite You to Follow Me On My Vision Quest

in #travel7 years ago

Hello everyone and I am grateful that you chose to visit my page, or read my post.  I am on a lifetime journey tracing my ancestry through a dna test I took some time ago.  Since finding out my ancestry I have been visiting every place on that dna chart.  But that chart has led me to many other adventures!

Before I share my adventure and life with you, I would like to tell you a bit about myself.  That way the journey will not seem so crazy, and off the chart lol.  Greetings, my name is Chappell

Long ago I was visiting my aunt Kate in Arizona. She had this VICIOUS dog chained up to a tree. My mother told me "you stay away from that dog" My aunt Kate said the same thing. While everyone was in the house and kindly sneaked out into the yard. I approached the pen the dog was chained in. It viciously barked and snarled at me. But I saw something different in that dog. I sat there and stared at it. Let it bark at me.

I eventually jumped into the pen with the dog. The dog kinda backed off. I don't remember what happened after that in detail but I do remember taking the chain off of the dog. Till this day I do not know who took that picture.  Me and this dog became best friends. Her name was Sheila.

Over the years I trained myself to see through darkness, see the good (or light) in people, creatures and even life itself!  My story is long, it is fascinating and I am still bringing myself to understanding my life.  Just a few days ago I stumbled upon "Steemit".  I took some time to see what it was about.  I noticed lots of positivity, sharing and interest from many types of people.  Something you do not see on today's social media realm.  AND TO GET PAID FOR THE SINCERITY AND PASSION OF YOUR MIND!  ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING, EXCITING!  I have found a social site in which humans write again!  Instead of talking with symbols, ME'ME's and filters.  I have seen REAL people on this platform!  I must say I am truly grateful for this site. And hope to meet many great people.

I have MUCH to share with you and hope you enjoy the trip.  From the age of 8 to my current age of 48, I hope all of you will help me confirm new realities, find new answers and observe new truths! Please feel free to follow :)
