RE: Dreaming Big: The Steemit Way

in #steemit6 years ago

Your original motives mirrored mine -

To earn cryptocurrency or money
To write and blog
To try a new social media like website
To interact with other people

What has morphed for me since then is the desire to make the world a better place, even if it is just a small little ripple in a small little corner. I feel that the sharing of insight, knowledge, ideas, information etc is paramount to foster an evolution of enlightenment of the human species.

In addition and on a more objective perspective we also have the ability here to financially help impoverished individuals, communities and or support a cause. This is something I have been kicking around and would love some help with. What can I/we do? Sponsor a Steemian? Set up a Steemit fundraiser for a cause? I am open to suggestions, ideas and assistance. I want to do the groundwork to create something that will help.

The fact of cryptocurrency was not my main reason by any means. Writing was my priority. But after long discussions with my husband about retirement and purchasing of property, it has risen some.

I have been sponsoring homesteaders and gardeners for months now and love how I can add to their experience and some day success.

Do you have any ideas or suggestions of how I could use this platform to support a cause or a community?
