Here in SteemWorld we are all identified as whales, orcas, dolphins, minnows base on how much steem power we have. Fixated on monetary worth, we often neglect to see that we are so much more. Steemit ocean is so vast, diverse and colorful, and you don't have to limit yourself to be identified by one of those few options. Be whoever you are, be whoever you wish to be...steem power is not the only power you have, you have so much more to offer, you are unique, there is room for all of us in SteemWorld.
Yes, the mighty voting power, and ability to have an impact on peoples economic situation with your single vote (be it a penny, a dollar, or more) is such a great feature that we have never seen before and it bring joy for both receiving and giving. However, Steemit offers so much more. It lets us be who we are. You are not all only whales, orcas, dolphins and minnows, you are also gold fish, jelly fish, turtle, octopus, clown fish, star fish, crab, sea lion, etc. Identify yourself, and don't feel limited.
Consuming the content for last couple weeks, I have traveled with some of you to different places, I have tasted the great food you share, I joined you in laughs of funny posts and videos you share. I have learnt more and grown together with you in inspiration and knowledge. I have enjoyed shared art, opinions on various subjects, analysis of cryptocurrencies, and so much more.
I have met so many of you, and exchanged intellectual, casual, and funny conversations. Your power is not limited to your steem power, your power is what you bring to this world: your thoughts, your creations, your knowledge, your experiences. They all bring color and meaning to this community.
Your attention is your power. I don't care which tier of economic voting you belong to, your attention means much more. Thank you reading my content, thank you for replying to my comments, thank you for commenting, and yes thank you for your votes and resteems. Your attention is your power. All members bring unique perspective to any subject, your comments are important, your posts are important, your attention is powerful.
The photos you share is more than an power. They bring so much color to this world. Its like being in so many places without leaving your own. They make us laugh, they make us think, they make us appreciate things we have.
Some of you do giveaways, start games. Engagement is your power. We all engage and have fun together. We win or not that's not the gain, the gain is in our participation. Thank you for giveaways for those who do, thank you for your engagement for those who engage. Use your engagement power, be active, reward others, and be rewarded.
There are many more powers we have, unleash them, share them, enjoy them, don't limit yourself. Because you are so much more than a whale, or orca, or dolphin, or minnow. On that note, I am transforming myself to a Steem Cactus.
