So much of this is true but can I just encourage everyone that investing yourself on steemit is great, even through the ups and downs, the quitting and the being on fire. I've seen a level of encouragement and friendship on steemit that is pretty great. However, investing in the lives of others on a personal basis is WAY better. I've loved the relationships that I've built on steemit, but I have to watch myself sometimes that I don't spend so much of my life in my online world that I overlook how many opportunities surround me where I can be the hands and feet of Christ. Thanks for the encouragement Hive account@papa-pepper. 2018 will be a balancing act for sure!
