Is there anybody out there?

So as some of you unlikely may have noticed, I dipped out for awhile. Upon my arrival back, I noticed something very strange. The spam is gone. No one's begging for money. No one's posting anything that isn't of value to the community.

This pleases me.

For that reason, I can get down with the SD crash. We're not really here for the money anyway. We've created our own world, our own little village.

This is a place of prosperity.

But as I was perusing my people, I noticed that that's not all that's missing.
Where have all my Steemians gone?
My artists, my philosophers, my do-gooders, my storytellers?

If you're still here, give me a shoutout, send me a link and show me what's going on in your life.

I plan on resuming my Steemit duties of community building, music sharing, contest having, and perhaps a few other surprises, as I now find myself with an inordinate time on my hands due to an unemployable injury.

Will you help me maintain my sanity?

Will you remind me of what's good and beautiful in the world?

I will share the less cryptic details of my life in a later post, but right now I want to hear from you.
You just say the word, and you're back on my radar.

Ciao for now, my kitties ^.^
