The Power Within Me
People around me might think I am okay.
I can smile and mingle with them.
They can't see that something wrong in me.
I have the power to keep things okay even I am not.
@shikika wrote a perfect example of inner strength and how the power within can help you succeed; or even get through every day life. Stop over and have a read of this poem; you won't be disappointed.

Thoughts On Steemit Investment Strategy- How Anyone Can Pump The Steem Price
We are witnessing a great price drop in Steem right now.
What are the reasons ?
The whole Cryptomarket (excepted for some day traders hunting, pumping and dumping different coins) with especially the No. 1 coin BTC is in a bear trap since end of 2017 (from nearly $ 20 000 USD to approx $ 6000 USD)
See what the other reasons are that @honolulu is talking about in this post. What can we, or you,do to help the price of steem go up?

My Entry For The Monomad Photography Contest
When I came across that old building I couldn’t help it. I was baffled by the sheer graffiti invasion which happened to that house given the fact that each and every other building nearby was clean to a degree where you might think that any touch of colour whatsoever certainly wouldn‘t hurt. This house however is plastered with random tags almost up to the first floor and the only one standing out
Some people say graffiti are works of art... others say they can be masterpieces... while yet more say they are eyesores. What are your thoughts? @ohmygoodness has found a fabulous example here.

From Earthy Aesthetic To Brain Damage Design
Five months ago, I introduced the news that the earthen decoration in front of the Bailian Building of Shanghai Century Avenue was dismantled because of the opening of the Expo
After the end of the Expo, Shanghai, everything has returned to its original state. Marks that had been banned from the road were removed and piled up, disposed of like garbage, while shared bicycles and courier electric cars returned to the day of rampage on the sidewalk
@kidsreturn shares a story about how presentation can be everything. When an important event is happening, everyone is on-board to have the area in ship-shape order, but when the event is nothing more than a memory, things return to how they were before.

Joint Replacement: Knee
One of the most complex surgeries in the world of orthopedic surgery are those of joint replacement and placement of prostheses, being the most common at the level of the hip and knee. Although they are surgeries that require many hours of work, they are justified by the benefit they provide to patients who recover through these surgical interventions
Have you ever had a joint replacement surgery? Your knee perhaps? Share your own recovery and surgical process with @drmaizo and other steemians in this post. What do you remember most? What was the hardest part?
Important News:
Goodbye Tiers, Hello Multiplier!
Head over to this post, we are thinking of some changes to simplify the whole upgrade system. Some input and feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Introducing Referral Bonuses!
Dear Qurites,
We know times are tough now and we all have to push a little bit harder. We came up with two programs that will help you earn some extra upvotes and visibility from Qurator, and will also help Qurator to reach more Steemians/your friends that need some extra help.
Write a post about Qurator.
Our long time members know how it all works. You have been with us through thick and thin.
Share your experience with your friends and followers. We would love to know how our members see Qurator and what they like (or don't) the most about the project.
Feel free to write in your own native language. We are open to all languages and have already translated our main Qurator post to several languages.
Well written posts will receive some extra upvote love from Qurator and a resteem. :) Feel free to drop your post link in our Daily Qurator comment section, so we don't miss it.
Invite a friend.
Do you know someone who is starting out? Or maybe someone who is posting great posts for a while but still need more exposure? Refer Qurator to your friend and after they get approved and become a member you will also receive a bonus 1SBD upvote on your most recent posts.
There are two ways to do it and this is how it works:
| 1 | You refer a friend to Qurator | You sponsor a membership to your friend |
| 2 | Your friend sends registration fee to Qurator and mentions your name in the memo: referred by @your_steemit_username | You send registration fee to @qurator with your the person's name in memo: @your_friends_username |
| 3 | Our team reviews the account | Our team reviews the account |
| 4 | Your friend is approved - you receive a 1SBD upvote | Your friend is approved - you receive 1SBD upvote |
Keep in mind that all registration rules still apply and all account will be reviewed by our team. You can read about content requirements in THIS post.
Note: Both programs are open to everyone, not only Qurator members.

Steemauto Curation Trail
 | The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. Steemauto guide and registration info |
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P
