Maybe everyone of us have a personal things we treasure the most, maybe it's from the person we love or maybe we bought it by our all efforts, sweat and hardworks and maybe it's expensive or maybe it's cheap but for sure it's priceless...
Everyone has a thing that's everything from them, for some people it is a ring who witness the promise of lovers, maybe it's a trophy from a retired athlete or maybe it's just a simple things which reminds us of a very special events in our lives...
Look at that pair of shoe maybe for you it's just an old pair of overused and dirty shoes, maybe for some of you this pair of shoe is ready for disposal or maybe if I gave that shoes to you you won't accept it, but I understand your thoughts about it because you don't know the story behind that shoes, and for sure some of you just don't care even if I told you the story behind it.
who's insterested in stories about old pair of shoes? for sure no one around here Lol, but here I am telling a story about my old pair of shoes, sorry for that LOL.
So here's where it started, Almost 2 years ago(dec 2017) I bought that pair of shoes on a international online store for 1,369php/27usd (50%discounted) using my sbd/steemdollars earnings here on steemit, the value of SBD that time is very high, as far as I remember the value of SBD that time runs around more than 10usd so I bought that shoes for just less than 3sbd.
I want to buy that shoes using my personal money and buying that shoes using SBD is not on my plan, but some of the people I know or even some of my friends don't believe that I can earn money by blogging here on steemit, some of them discourage me they said that I'm wasting my time and efforts here and some of them said that steemit is a scam.
That's the reason why I bought that shoes using my SBD to prove to them that they are wrong, to prove to them that I'm not wasting my time here and in the first place I enjoying what I am doing here. And after I recieve that shoes, I posted it on facebook (here's the link) to show to my friends that steemit is legit and to encourage them to create an account here on steemit, after I posted that on facebook some of my friends message me they ask me to help them to create an account and to teach them on what they need to do here.
And that's why that shoes is very important to me because that shoes is the first thing that I bought from my earnings here on steemit and also that is the reason why my brother @jamescarlo and my friends like @yhel21, @angelicamaniquis entered steemit platform.
Maybe for some of you this story about old shoes is quite boring sorry for that Lol, but for me the story about that old pair of shoes is remarkable, and I feel that I need to share this story to my fellow steemians, because this is part of my journey here on steemit...
