I love #steemit, and I am beginning to wonder about the extent of its potential. Seriously: just how far can it go?
Like so many of us, well, all of us, I love steemit. "Why?" you ask. And I ask too.
It's more than the steem.
It's more than its 'gateway drug' entry point to the whole 'crypto thing' vibe.
It's more than the ideas that are blossoming here.
It's more than the community we're building.
And I'm thinking, it's more than all these things together, too.
I love steemit because it provides a place where we can express ourselves and experiment with words (poems and prose, essays and opinions) and ideas and art (art!). And reward each other for our expression.
It provides a link across boundaries of nations and cultures (if not perhaps language). And through this, it gives us an opportunity to really connect with people of other cultures and places - and discuss what really matters.
Through this, it has the potential to help us all become the human beings we want to be.
I know this is a big call - and at the moment only a possibility. But it is a very real possibility.
Because steemit has the potential.
Please share your thoughts.
