HOW ABOUT WE LIGHT THAT FIRE AGAIN – STEEMFIRE!

Remember those days when you wanted to change the world. And for that you planned and plotted and build castles in the skies of your imagination. All of it so that you could change those things in this world that sucked. Then we grew up….. That optimism morphed into something else and we now ascribe those feelings to the optimistic naiveté of the youth. Now we prefer to think of ourselves as realists.

Let me say this – BULLSHIT!!! I am calling this shit out and in the process I am doing the same for myself. The truth is that we just became a little more jaded than we wanted to. We can paint the picture in whatever shade we want to but the fact remains that we let that fire fizzle out…

Or did it? That desire to do shit that can bring about a change was a faraway dream and by now we should all have given up on it. But if we did give up on that dream then the question is – ‘what are we doing here on Steem?’ Is it possible that there might be a spark that burns within and perhaps that’s what brought us all together over to the blockchain technology?

Let me ask you this – ‘Why do you Steem?’ Chances are that like me you too are not making tons of money here (at least with these prices). So why are you blogging? Why are you reading this post? In fact, why are you here at all?

The answers to these questions would be quite indicative of your inner revolutionary. For me Steem means defiance. It’s a way to tell the world that we still got what it takes to be free people. It shows that communities can come together under the banner of humanity without being bound by their flags (read agendas).

So let’s keep this fire burning – STEEMFIRE!

PS: The term Steemfire was pointed out to me by Hive account@soyrosa. Although the context of it was slightly different when she referred to it but I feel that it aptly describes a mindset that could allow us to push through this crypto winter. It would be interesting to hear about it origins though….
