I was writing I am good in bed when I saw the notifications from i-rise WhatsApp group, the busiest steemit WhatsApp group I came across sometime in February. I was new to steemit at this time and was just learning the ropes. My payouts were continuously $0.0s but I wouldn't give up. The highpoint of my days were the chats at night. I would wonder, don't these people ever sleep? But believe me, during that time, I met some of the best people I could meet. No, they aren't whales, infact, we aren't dolphins but we are a group of minnows that look out for each other.
We had the She fell in love with...challenge in July and we are on the #icewaterchallenge right now.
When I joined steemit, I joined so many communities, hoping to network.
But all my efforts be like say baboon dey chop as monkey dey work.
I gave up on the dreams of ever making friends
I often wondered, is this how it ends?
Suddenly, the night watch started
I become so lighthearted
A new course has just been charted
Almost everyone here is bighearted.
and I would drag the last woman standing
I came to love
ever so helpful
always celebrating people
and
always making me wish I could sing
reminded me of me a time ago
witty and ever dependable
so large hearted
and
chasing the airdrops
Anonymous I met and everything became coded
and our occasional interesting chats
and his humor
ever friendly
my demon
we always have our differences, but we cool!
always current.
my Ijesa blood
I'm really sorry I can't tag you all, but I do love you so much
It'd be an understatement to say, I've met the best of people on steemit here on I-rise.
This group never fails to energize me
The way we synchronize, it's just so mesmerizing.
I love you all and it can not be overemphasized.
