HURRAY!!! A BELATED CONGRATULATIONS, 4000 SP UNLOCKED; TAKING THE RIGHT STEEM DECISION?

It's been a year and seven months for me on the blockchain and yesterday I unlocked 4k SP of course I know it's not something to be overjoyed about but from my perspective it is, seeing that I hardly have any constant whale support right from the beginning and goodness me! It's totally a delightful day for me. I set out on the blockchain as someone who didn't even know what cryptocurrency or blockchain meant and well steem was introduced to me by my good friend @rufans and in late December 2017 I realised that steem's potentiality has a knack to be limitless and obviously quit my meagre paying job to be on. Definitely this was a risk because someone once told me that no constant supply in a daily paying job should be sacrificed for steem and a far as I hated the statement it was true, but the blind aspect of this statement is that steem won't guarantee you anything at the present, infact you'll go hungry if you think the millions will roll in now and despite how hard it's been, how hard it is and how hard it'll be, I've found that mental strength somewhere to give my 100% to steem because with a paying job I'll be earning daily but my steem future isn't really guaranteed but like @theycallmedan said once this is the right time to stack up steem, it'll only be virtually impossible in the future I may have made a terrible decision I may have not but one thing I've learnt is that one doesn't lose with steem.

Truth is no one does it alone on steem and I'm belated because with Ik I'll definitely become a dolphins. Sometimes people think it's overrated to celebrate milestones as these but the truth is that it reminds us of how far we've definitely come, we can decide to whine and complain of the steem price and how broke we are, or we can decide to either invest, do more to have more on the blockchain. Whatever our decisions may turnout to be we need to be projective with steem because it's the biggest prospect out there that spoils you with utility. So 4k Sp, never powered down I've invested over 300 steem and earned over 450 steem in curation reward, definitely not a mouth watering stat but sometimes it's needful for us to bask in the little accomplishment we've come about because it'll remind us of how strong our reslove, faith and hardwork has definitely taken us far.

Without even saying much, it's a special day and I'm planning to become a dolphin before my two years anniversary on September 11th 2019, I'll never end this post without expressing gratitude really because the blockchain and it's community boasts of the most amazing individuals on the planet and whereas facebook is empowering people to be friendly unfriendly, steem is bringing people together in deed and in work towards actualisation of a viable goal In earnest I've formed some of the best friendships ever and @nathanmars @lizanomadsoul @streetstyle @d-pend are people who helped me a lot on this platform selflessly and verily even when they didn't get anything in return from me really. A year ago @acidyo selfless initiatives @ocd helped me reached minnowhood when I was a travel blogger and well I won't continue by not thanking @reggaemuffin and @anomadsoul people who influenced steem In a titanic way, I termed them people I want to become. @Surpassingoogle was like a lord of the way and I paved my way with his massive influence, this was even before the coming of the DAPPs.

I made so many unique friendship like @raj808 the poetically amazing one @beyou (Paula) @artwatch @kenanqhd @madushanka and @bleedpoet and the helped me I'm tremendous ways. See it isn't easy to swim the steem waters especially without dapps to help you and so many are enjoying the blessings of the dapps but back in the days it was just communities and dependence on whales. That's why I'm also thankful to accounts like @redes @newhope @mangos @ripperone I don't know the people behind them but you can reckon they're outstanding. How about @musing.io? Obviously a deteriorating project but their support was massive @dtube is definitely one, I mean the rewards for all my videos all these while. The outstanding @oracle-d that's changing the world of crowdsourcing and a huge many more. In recent times I'll like to thank @theycallmedan he's someone I'll call a pure bussinessman with the heart of communal development and individual empowerment he embodies an entity and a community and this goes also for one of the greatest visionary I've ever know @nathanmars who is rewriting the steem story and outcome from his own perspective.
In a nutshell I'm totally grateful steem and I'm hoping to unlock dolphinhood in let's say just about 3 months.
