Hive account@davidshane, thanks for sharing about your life and daily activities. I appreciate how you have been interacting with me on my Steemit blog.

I want to give you some advice and information. It is free to upvote, but each time you upvote you lose voting power. You lose 2% of your voting power per upvote. That means if you upvote 10 times, then you lose 20% of your voting power. But there is good news.

In 24 hours you can regain about 20% voting power. Each and every day I upvote until my voting power is between 75-80%. And then during the night, my upvoting power increases about 10% while I sleep.

This is important because it means that my upvotes are worth more when I give them to people. If you voting percentage is low then your upvote is not worth as much.

If you have any questions about this let me know. I use www.steemnow.com to check my voting power.
