Just RE-testing the waters

in #blog5 years ago

Some may remember me!?


easy intro.jpg
So here I am doing exactly what I said i wouldn't, writing a blog on Steemit. See i have been away. far away and ventured into distant waters. Think of me as captain Janeway in Star Trek Voyager or Dorothy in the land of oz. except they had a no choice and i have been able to tap my ruby Steem slippers anytime.


So why now????

Good question!
call it fate, call a new year thing, truth is I don't know why myself. I have been swimming with the whales and they led me astray. Although we had a great time along the way, the promised land was never really there. What I mean by that is, although I have not been active here, I have been active on Whaleshares and had a really great time there too.
I built up a niche and got to know some great people. My contests were some of the best on the site and even had the highest giveaway throwout the platform too. I had created a second account just to manage the contests so it was not to overcast my personal blogs and everything was going great. **But then it happened...

Fork off gate

The last hard fork had completely destroyed the whole premise that I had built up my contests for and left me with no creditable way of running contests while growing myself. So I stopped. Then I realized that personal blogs were not working either because due to the new tipping system, I was tipping what I was earning and therefore my account was stale. Nothing smells as bad as a stale whale. Anyways fast forward several months and a mental breakdown later i have decided to just sit here at my desk and post a blog into the void of my old stomping ground here on Steemit and see if i cannot reconnect with people. Hopefully, they can shine a light in my direction and i will surely follow it home.

Nice to see you back on the The Chain, @father2b. Never doubted your return. 😎

Well I’m sorta back. If I can find that inner beauty that once was then I will be back full time for sure

Things have certainly evolved since my arrival. STEEM is no longer the one trick social media pony anymore. It is a wonderful and unique thing for a crypto community to have, however, giving personality to hash addresses.
