This is a great story. Yes, I like stories like this. I know you are new and learning.I think this would have been good as a two parter story. That way you could get more credit for all your hard work. A lot of people on Steemit are so busy, they do not have time to read, even a great story. Maybe there's a few. Shorter is better if you want to attract a lot of people. I've been here for 3 weeks now, and that is what I have learned.
Thank you for sharing one of your life's story. Since you know how to work very hard, I'm sure you will find great success here.
Welcome, and all the best.
