The fact that you care, that you want to participate is never worthless! The upvotes are nice, and are always appreciated, but it's the comments that make what we do truly worthwhile. Knowing that someone took the time to read what we've written, to think on it, and to reply with how it made them think or feel is the true treasure of what so many here in this freewriting group want to give to Steemit. People ask questions, share jokes and personal experiences and begin to know each other and form friendships. It's a fantastic feeling and one that I hope that you'll join in and share with us! Plus, we have tons of fun together and who wants to miss out on that party?
