I have stopped posting in the Steem platform for more than 3 months now but some of the people that I have met in this platform I still count as friends and have joined them in other projects, talk to them in Facebook ( yes I know such a loser lol) and some I have even met physically.
I still stop by from time to time and often I miss writing in the platform not just because of the rewards but because of the community that I once enjoyed here.

Getting a huge upvote is nice and I would not begrudge anyone if they give that but to some people it doesn't matter.

I too had felt that time when SBD was in all time high and I could afford to go on vacations from writing and commenting in Steem, fund a school supplies program and even sponsor some people. Then the bear happened and I saw the communities that was in slowly lose people as it became harder and harder for them to stay.

I have been meaning to get back but feel so rusty. I don't even know what to start writing again or if any of my audience before are still here.

Yet I see a lot of people that I respect an elite to read are still here, still commenting, still writing and letting their thoughts known.

So maybe it's not yet too late...
