Is there anything like "The human behind the steemian"? Hahaha, i have talked of this since day one!
Sometime 4 months ago, i spoke of the existence of this concept and of how it very much affects our steemit success. I also integrated "the human behind the steemian" into the model of @steemgigs
Steemit's Untalented became full blown on steemit a few days ago as a branch of and its very first contest was launched and "the human behind the steemian" became even more prominent but we will talk about this extensively in a very separate post.
To Grasp A Bit.....
Please join me once again in reading the comment section of "Steem Untalented first contest post".
It is pregnant with awesomeness. Filled with "humans".
When you read those comments, fill yourself in and be re-told of your awesomeness and that 'awesomeness' still existent in the world. There is hope!
There are wars, injustice, cruelty but there are humans; steemians! So stay awesome and let's go!
One more thing.....
"There is brotherhood". Brotherhood appears rare in the world today, but it exists still; so hang in there!
I am still reading.....
A lot of beauty happened with that "untalented contest". There have been around 150 full-blown post entries already and i am visiting them gradually over time. Voting power has been a factor too as i curate these posts, so i am having to wait to recharge but i will get to each entry.
Overall intention is to upvote each entry, resteem for friends too, to render support and eventually, to leave an empowering comment after reading each entry.
Hahaha, i forgot to indicate the use of a tag, to easily locate every entry. I thought it will be easier to have entries submitted as a comment to the original contest post but the number of comments arose drastically and my PC browser crashed each time i tried to load it.
I had to improvise somehow, using google search as well!
Participants also improvised as many started using #untalented and that helped matters.
I tried to gather all the entries together on. I had that account months ago and was able to find the key.
Thus, if you would like to join in reading all the entries and support each, please check out the resteems on !
I am so grateful for the turn out! "Steemians are creating the best version of human!" They allowed themselves to be touched; to be human and many kept returning to the untalented contest post not only to submit their entries but to draw inspiration and give out some.
Giving & Receiving
Below are two weighty comments that was left on the original untalented contest post. Please read, then go visit the comment thread itself, to see "steemians indeed" in hearty loving action.
1. @abeem90:
Oh my! What do I write. You know not how strongly you have pulled me up with this write up. Just before reading this, I was at the brink of making life threatening decisions but you have shown me there is more to life than I see. I do not need their applause because they can't do what I do. They are not me... I am a genius in my field needless of "their" approval. I don't know if I made sense but you have taught me there is sense in nonsense... Thank you so much for this... You just saved a soul!

's eventually entry to #untalented: WHO AM I?????
2. @olufunke:
Since I read your post yesterday, even after commenting, I couldnt rest my mind because it felt like the peace I needed was lost. Peace from the time wasted in waiting for people's acceptance of my true self, this singular thing has robbed me of my joy for the better part of growing up. With my plight yesterday, I read your post to a dear brother who literally suffers from glaucoma and has since lost sight of things and events. After I was done reading, he was quite for about 10minutes and when I looked his eyes, it was soaked in tears, he said and I quote "I could have believed more in myself before life happened to me, knowing I wasn't born blind".
You see, you just bridged the road between death and life. So many of us today are walking dead because of the choices we have made just to fit into what the society thinks of us rather than believe in ourselves.
Thanks once again @surpassinggoogle for this initiative. I don't know where to pick it all up from but I sure know you have given the best clue. Thank you.
The Sound Of My Speechless..
Your brother is next to you!
Everyone Wins.....
