Hi Steemians,
I recently received an award from Steemitboard for making 7000 upvotes!
I was very surprised to learn that I have given Steem to other people 7000 times!
What is more surprising is that none of those Steem came from my wallet. They came from the rewards pool. That’s how the Steemit platform works!
This reminds me of a saying about happiness.
It goes like this:
“Just as a single candle can light one thousand other candles without decreasing it’s lifespan, so too can a single happy person give happiness to a thousand persons without decreasing their happiness.”
Your upvotes on the Steemit platform are like this too. You can give people upvotes everyday without diminishing what’s in your wallet.
You can spread happiness without decreasing your own happiness.
You can be like a single candle that lights one thousand others without decreasing your lifespan.
I am proof. I have given 7000 upvotes without decreasing the Steem in my wallet.
Be like a candle Steemians, and light the flames of happiness on this platform.
