The first month on Steemit: How did all of it begin. Thank you all!

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I have been a member of the Steemit for a month now and everything started quite unusually...
One thing is certain about me - I am extremely curious. So one day my husband came back home for lunch and casually asked an innocent question: "...would you like to have a Cryptokitty?"
"Cryptokitty?" - I repeated confused. I already have a bunny, why now a kitty?.... "Crypto + kitty... wait what?!".
He laughed since he knew that by now he has my full attention.
Some ladies get jewelry as gifts and me - things like a live bunny instead or Cryptokitties in this case... :)
"Yes" - he exclaimed... and proceeded to explain the concept vaguely.

At that point, they were a brand new thing so information was pretty scarce. I had to get digging... and here it was - a glorious Steemit. Full of juicy information, opinions, thoughts, experiences and even analytical data! "Wonderful" - I thought to myself trying to press the up-vote button on the few articles that I found particularly helpful. I couldn't... membership was required. Silly me...

Well, here I am. A month later, finding myself getting more and more addicted to the feeling. I believe I might even be accidentally falling in love with the constant stream of information, a variety of content all the colors and... all of you! The community. Each of you sharing your individual lives and unique experiences keeps me coming back every day wanting for more and... wishing to become a proud part of it. That never happened before, but the fact that the entire world is represented in the single place is amazing and to have a possibility to connect with it through the ordinary and extraordinary lives that you share is something unbelievable.
So thank you! Thank you for being, being so amazing and a special gratitude for those whose support and approval from the very first post really encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and become an active part of this amazing project!
