I suppose this is the natural progression of things. Some people stay, and some people don't. I don't know if I wasn't paying attention before or what, but I noticed that many of you walked off the face of the earth recently. I'm not here to keep tabs on you or anything. What I wanted to say is that we miss you! At least I do. There are 5 of you that come to mind. How are you? Is everything okay in your life? Did you give up on Steemit?

All five of you had potential, and you left a mark here. That's why I'm surprised you are gone.

I used to think I came too late in the game. I said since I wasn't an early adopter, there is no way for me to be successful here. Then someone pointed out that we are all early adopters. Sure, there are over a million users now, but considering there are over 7 billion people on this planet, Steemit has not yet boomed. The more I thought about it, the more I realized she was right. Those holding STEEM now can really invest in their future. That's what everyone says anyway!

Hive account@carmalain7, I remember you saying once on PYPT that if anyone wants to read bad poetry go check out your blog. I just want to say it wasn't bad poetry. I really admired your use of words. Once you helped me with editing one of my poems, and I found you were very knowledgeable in the ways of literature. I had your username entered in on GINAbot, so I wouldn't miss any of your posts. You're still there actually. I need to update the list lol. Well, I just want to say goodbye if your not coming back, and I wish you the best. ❤

Hive account@kecia, as a seasoned blogger, you came in with a splash! You hit the ground running! What happened? Your posts were well worded with original images, and you were much more successful than I was much of the time, even though you were new. I loved your advice articles as you always found something interesting to write about. You even founded a discord group for moms! I went to check your blog one day, and you were gone! Maybe you found it more profitable to stay on the platforms you came from? Either way, I hope all is well! ❤

Hive account@wolfenlord, I know why you left. You announced that you were done with Steemit. I miss you though. We've had some great conversations, and you were one of my favorites. You're very intelligent and it showed in your posts. Sorry to see you go. You mentioned other platforms that you were making bank on, and you said if it kept up, you would come back and tell me which platforms you spoke of. Well you never did. Hope you're enjoying the greener grass...❤

Hive account@appiepearl, we made a couple of small connections shortly after I joined Hive account@thealliance, and I found you to be honest and interesting. Then poof! You were gone! I hope all is well, and it was nice meeting you. ❤

Hive account@cygon, what happened? I've checked your blog, and you're MIA! I liked reading your posts. You covered many subjects, such as true love, your sick cat, the government, and more! I didn't get around to your blog as much as I should've. Hope everything is okay!

💔It's not the same without you.💔

Much love, snowpea ❤
