Why I Sponsor the Weekly Thursday Poker Tourney

Do the right thing and it will all work out. This has always been a life mantra of mine. This has be reinforced dramatically since I became apart of this amazing Steemit community. The amount of good being down on this platform is absolutely incredible and it defines the ideal platform of mutual obligations.

O someone just help me out, who can I help now?

I love this aspect of Steemit and it truly has the ability to be one of Steemit's defining differential attributes compared to other social media platforms.

The feeling of doing good is just that contagious. It absolutely an incredible pattern to see at scale.

Everyday I see Steemians giving positive feedback & energy, stimulating thoughtful, meaningful discussions, and working on ways to create real, positive change.

How blessed are we of Hive account@dan , Hive account@ned , and all the witnesses and other Steemians behind the scenes to make sure this amazing platform is alive and thrives.

This leads me to why I sponsor the Weekly Thursday Poker Tourney.

It's the right thing to do.

When I first joined Steemit, the Steemians apart of the Hive account@spl like Hive account@tuck-ftheman , Hive account@guyfawkes4-20 , and others helped me so much feel apart of something special. I think that's even where I had one of my first interactions with Hive account@acidyo , the leader of Hive account@ocd . He has only played in one poker tourney and if my memory is correct I sat at his table and we interacted. It really gave me that extra positive reinforcement us humans need sometimes. I can't say my transition into becoming a Steemian would have been so positive if it wasn't for these experiences.

I feel very blessed and appreciative to have found about Steemit when I did. The people, the content, and the experiences I have had on here has taken me to a whole new level.

So Steemit, Inc and fellow Steemians thank you for being you and doing all that you do. You have changed me to be the person I have always dreamed I would become.

I hope by sponsoring the Weekly Thursday Poker Tourney and all the other work I out into this platform I can give back to a community that has given me so much.

Thank you as always for your time and attention.
