RE: Ode to my friends on steemit! How did I become so attached to everyone??

in #steemit7 years ago

Lynn, what a beautiful Ode to my friends post. You added that personal element by describing the individual's interest or life. I love the ocean and only someone who would take the time to read my posts or comments would know that.

Truly a lovely post and I hope everyone sees the love behind your words.

Thank you so much @beeyou! It really did come from my heart ;) And I guess you're right, some people don't actually read everything, but as you said, I do and I wouldn't have it any other way. I guess I needed to be emotionally invested to really want to continue every day here, because as you are well aware, some days it feels like a lot haha

Thank you again for such kind words!

I think many of us are still on here because of the emotional aspect of steemit. It surely is not about the post payout. We can make more a day making minimum wage elsewhere!

That's so true!! Brian was getting discouraged about it all and went to play online slots, which he loves. He won $500 US! I said he made more money than I have here; and if I factor in the hours I've spent, I'd say it's about 1/4 of minimum wage haha

...so yes, emotional it is ;)

Yes, @beeyou! I remember when we first "met", in early days, we established we were "Ocean Children"!

@lynncoyle1 that humid, salty air and surf are things fantasies are made of - especially when the "Ocean Child" is landlocked, thousands of miles away from salty water, living on The Prairies ... The majesty of the Canadian Rockies make up for it!

@kismet2018, so you're an "Ocean Child" too, and stuck in the Prairies...what a crying shame haha

You're right though...I never tired of looking at those mountains!!

Yes, @lynncoyle1 I am very much an "Island Girl" to the depths of my innards - hehe. The majestic Rockies are beautifully distracting! I can almost forget that I am profoundly landlocked and very far away from salty Surf and Air!

Thank you for your hospitality and invitation!

I know, and I love it when I run into my ocean gals @kismet2018 and @lynncoyle1. We all have to make a paradise get together one day, perhaps to visit @lynncoyle1 in her slice of paradise. ;)

@beeyou... one of your best ideas ever !!!

Anytime girls, my door is always open, and so will the drinks be haha

Whoaaa ... what a delicious idea, @beeyou!! Btw, I am missing you!!!! The nerve of life to interrupt Steemit - hehe ⚘
