As you can tell, I'm just another young teenager 17 years old, well not quite old! But what am I doing here?
Just about an year ago I had everything I could ever ask for, had a great house, went to a great school, made some nice friends and studied. In a nutshell I had a good life and wasnt really grateful for it!
Meanwhile I didn't appreciate the struggle my parents went through for me to live that great life I talked about earlier, I had no idea how hard it was to make money, my dad worked for long hours everyday at his job but hell yea it was a struggle, not for me though I had no idea what was going on, until I did!
Throughout the middle of my school year, I just walk home one day and see depressed faces, my dad had lost his job and I stood there with no reaction on my face, not a word came out of my mouth. I started thinking, what now? Where would we live, would I be able to go out anymore?
The truth to the story behind the loss in his 15 years long job was that he had been taking loans from the bank to fulfill all my needs and wants which I never appreciated. And just what as expected, there comes a time when you are tied up with loans and their is absolutely no where to go, the same happened with us! We were stuck.
My pocket money dropped down and mainly the big wide smile on my face started to shrunk and expectedly I became sad. Right 2 months after that, we lost our house and the only thing that stayed with us, was a few bitcoins,
But I asked myself, was it enough to keep us going? This was the first time ever that I began to study currency, banks, federal reserve and the monetary system. I began to take this subject very seriously and looked into the depths of it, as I came closer to the truth that money is created out of fresh air, I was shook and started to appreciate the bitcoins we had as my eyes opened towards reality!
I devoted my days and nights in the research of cryptocurrencies and why they can solve the problems of currency we are facing and I realized how important this is, it is a revolutionary asset that if we own, we may one of the wealthy people that exist when money doesn't!
The creation of bitcoin and the bigger cryptocurrencies to come after that has given my life a meaning and a greater purpose to live for!
I am now again in a great school and everyday meeting one of the best people and making great friends, in a nutshell I'm having a great time and appreciating this life! Ofcourse through bitcoin....
Throughout my research into the vast quantity of cryptocurrencies out there, I came across Steemit! I instantly fell in love with it and here I am enjoying the platform ♥
