Understandably 500 Steem isn't a lot in today's market, but remember that it very well could be once things change.

Hello?? Five hundred is a lot of steem! I am a died in the wool Steemian and continue to grow every day. I enjoy the interaction among everyone, especially true and genuine back and forth.

I can honestly say that I try to help, in small ways and perhaps they are too small to count, but, I like to encourage commenting and so I upvote and tip every comment that takes the time to read my posts.

I host the #MarketFriday challenge (although people refer to it as MarketWeekend as we accept entries from any day!) :) I upvote and tip anyone who comes over and comments and I ask them to drop the link to their post there so that I can visit the post they made for the challenge, then upvote, resteem and comment on theirs. I do run down my voting power, so sometime I must give only .10 but, I try to make it up with a tip or bigger tip.

Saying that, I belong to #Powerhousecreatives, which is a wonderful place that encourages and helps many grow! That should have been my first mention, but, I was thinking individual.

Do I deserve it more than anyone? I think that anyone who is helping people grow is a great candidate! I just hope that is me! :)
