Ready to turn 71 with an important message & change in tone

I have dedicated 15 months of my life to Steemit

& spent countless hours helping others here, believing this to be the future for those of us who felt out of place on Facebook & YouTube.

Now that my family & I have been living on Steem for 7 months and I am on the cusp of a 71 reputation, the time has come to air my recent feelings about the state of Steemit.

Please note

These feelings are no longer fluffy and warm as once they were. So if you want to keep living in a dream world where everything is perfect, I advise you not to read it.

If on the other hand you are interested to hear the perspective of a firmly dedicated Steemian who is currently re-assessing his ongoing dedication, please follow for more...

I am already listed on steemwhales as 71 but when the number next to my name changes here on Steemit, I will write this post.

WE WILL NOT GO GENTLE INTO THE NIGHT!
