0.86 cents for my last post! This "Painted Lady" Papillon (Butterfly) cries with me.
Oh yes, we work hard to place authentic posts on steemit, all with only original content. But it seems that life here is the same as in our charity world. Always a struggle for survival even if our performances are amazing.
But life goes on!
Another Painted Lady!
Here we have a red dropwing dragonfly!
A Malachite Sunbird on a red Canna!
A Sacred Ibis in flight!
And finally, this shot was taken at a huge distance, but it spoke to me, seven birds on each side and one in the middle. It seems that the white Egret in the middle is dividing the two Hadeda Ibis families in the tree.
Be it as it may, I am not complaining even now after a year on steemit and I think our highest amount of votes on a post is in the region of about 50 votes. We try our best not to miss a day with a post, apart from a few days due to a serious health issue and even now, after the event, we continue to post every day.
Like I said, it's the same in the charity world. The big names with plenty of money to advertise get almost all of the donations and the little charities have to fight over the crumbs.
Fairness is a big issue in our teachings to the poor and how can it be fair if a post with one photo gets 300 votes and a post with many more photos gets only a few cents? Do you see the correlation here? Money talks and those without will always struggle, even if their efforts are superior to the ones that have. Take note that there is no bitterness here, only the facts of life. I am afraid that even if we were to work harder, it will not be the solution.
Any ideas apart from buying ourselves out of this struggle?
Please let me know!
