Hello Mom and Dad .

I think i have some fault in the upsetting since I mentioned I onboarded at least 8-10 musician friends , started a group over whatsapp with all local friends and though about pushing it through the platform as a little music wolf pack , two of them were regular open mic winners.. all of them left. The dollar sign on the posts has some psychological weight and the ''what I expect'' to ''what actually happens'' can drive them away. Eventually this little whatsapp and google hangouts group we did with @meno evolved to @helpie ! so.. from an 8 people whatsapp group we are now a family of 300! ( yes.. just checked the number now ) .

Many people don't understand and don't have an investment mentality , specially among musicians where we basically have to ''catch the gigs'' on a weekly basis to survive. Usually when someone comes around and tells us ''I have a project and we'll see down the road how it goes and we can make some profit'' we run away. So .. i think that mentality is quite attached because of how daily life works ( though it shouldn't ) .

Why I stick around? Well , it's fun and I think I am building something personal , I am building a ''secret'' personal career here and It is great :P , most people outside Steemit don't even know I write songs ! I mean.. I am recording an album thanks to the response I have gotten here , if it wasn't for friends in this platform that cared a little I wouldn't have bothered at all ! So.. yay Steemit!

I guess it's not for everyone but those who left and come back later will regret have doing so ( not meaning it in a mean way , I'll be here trying to help them get back on the train ) . So , as many other stories , I came for the money , stayed for the people. I'm not even a social media person... if you go to my Facebook , or Instagram.. they are quite dead.. I find them to be a burden.. I keep them so people can still contact me if so needed.

Also , you said we should not compare ourselves but .. mom and dad.. why do you both have light eyes and I don't?? Why did you cheat on me on the eye deal? ... filling in a complaint letter...

Also , since one of the points is cats , here.. have a Simba trying to steal my alfajor.

Much Love
