As a complete newbie here just trying to find my way around, I have to say so much of this resonates with me.

I came here, to Steemit, not with the expectation of either making a quick buck or big bucks, but rather to be part of a successful growing community of outstanding thinkers and doers, who have so much to offer. Within that, yes, I hope for my own success.

You are indeed one of those people and have so eloquently expressed yourself and have put yourself out there with a view towards not only helping us, the little guys, but to ensuring the success of Steemit long term, I both admire and thank you for that.
