Life Is Awesome!

BY: @teamsteem | CREATED: Sept. 20, 2017, 6:15 a.m. | VOTES: 958 | PAYOUT: $412.77 | [ VOTE ]

Life is so awesome, most people try to avoid death until their very last breath, pretty much so no matter what. If that wasn't the case then suicide would be the number one cause of death but it isn't. Obviously it doesn't make this cause of death to be any less tragic.

But even for those who decide to end their life, it's not that they thought life was never awesome but simply that at some point, suffering began to outweigh life's awesomeness and their fear of death.

Be Awesome! We Never Know When Our Time Comes!

Now, whatever comes after death might be even more awesome than life itself but no one knows for sure, thus the logical need people feel to try to squeeze everything they can out of it.

I share this to highlight that even though there's a whole lot of suffering in this world, there's provably even more awesomeness.

In the end, maybe life's awesomeness and suffering perfectly equal one another but nonetheless the experience of life itself could always be considered a net positive and that's a very comforting thought.

My Latest Series

The current post is part of a series of post listed below but can also be read on it's own.

I Stand For What Feels Right

Source

This hasn't changed. This is why I get up in the morning, to make myself feel good and help make others feel the same about themselves.

What feels right is to feel in tune with reality, it's when we aren't engaging in self-deception. Today the whole human society is conducive to deception, in fact the higher people are in its many pyramids of power, the more they have to engage in deception, whether they realize it or not.

It's a lot easier to live in tune with reality when our whole environment is also in tune with reality than when our whole environment is constantly seeking to deceive us and each other. This is why the more someone gets in tune with reality the more in its environment will also gets in tune with reality or they will avoid one another.

Making Governments Irrelevant

Source

As I've already said in many of my previous posts, I'm seeking ways to make our world less deceiptful and less engaged in unnecessary acts of violence, by seeking ways to be more in tune with reality and to live in harmonious ways with mother nature.

I'm here seeking to create a voluntaryist society where all forms of human association are voluntary as opposed to the current form of society where governments cannot function without the threat of initiating violence/imprisonment.

There's no need to know all the answers as to how exactly a voluntaryist society would look like nor is there anyway to have all of those answers at this moment.

Anything that empowers every humans rather than give even more power to the governments is a good thing for everyone.

> "We're creating systems that make governments irrelevant, taking dispute out of their jurisdiction to allow people to interact securely with each other." - Me paraphrasing @dantheman - (source)

Creating Fairer Systems Of Governance

To make governments irrelevant we need to create better forms of money than the national currencies created by them, money which is created out of nothing at the expense of everyone else and which have help governments create misery of unparalleled scale.

Cryptocurrencies are this better forms of money first launched on January 3, 2009 with Bitcoin. These new types of money have began to shift power away from governments back to the individuals. I've try to explained some of the reasons why cryptocurrencies are a better type of money than national currencies in my post: "Understanding Cryptocurrencies: The Best Investments Of All Time".

The post also explain what are cryptocurrencies in a way anyone can understand. I feel this is very important to understand, as this cryptocurrency rise as been the biggest wealth creation of the last 8 years and if I'm right will continue to be so for many years to come and everyone holding them are the first benefactors.

No matter who benefit from them first, in the end, I feel like cryptocurrencies are truly benefiting everyone.

This whole world is set up for a big shift in power, away from governments and back to the individuals.

The Universal Fear Of Not Having Enough

Source

We all have this fear. We all want to avoid suffering so much than we'd do pretty much anything not to end up poor. Yet in today's society, the more deception there is the better but this is only for those who rule society itself. Yet everyone are pushed to deceive one another.

And before the advent of cryptocurrencies, the situation seemed very dire, as anything done to help achieve a fairer society would always end up being counteract by governments creating more money out of nothing, further empowering themselves at the expense of everyone else.

The Will To Live In The Face Of Utter Despair

https://youtu.be/2nHTsmeG22s?t=7s

This video was filmed in Egypt. This 10 seconds clip beginning at the 7 seconds mark is probably the video I've watched the most in my life. It's a very poignant clip. I don't know what the Arabic part of it means.

Egypt has been in the top 5 US foreign aid recipient from at least 1995 to 2015. Egypt isn't a developing country and the vast majority of this aid 86% in the last year was directly given to Egypt's military forces.

The militarization of the whole world through any means possible, through nowadays what is called "foreign aid" which goes on directly to fund, train and equip any forces coveted by the most powerful rulers have been happening since as long as recorded history began.

No amount of "foreign aid" is meant to really help anyone but the rulers, just like no wars is meant to help anyone but the rulers of start them. But this "aid" only exist to further deceive people and make them always more reliant and subserviant to those rulers instead of making people self-reliant and independent.

As long as I have the freedom to, I will work to bring about a better world.

Nobody Voted For People Being Left Starving To Death

I'm not okay with people starving to death, nor does anyone of us should. We should all look towards changing the current status quo and not only for those people starving to death but for everyone going through any avoidable hardships most of them created by those inherently violent governments.

If we're all scared of not having enough money then we can all easily understand how the poorest and most uneducated must feel about their situation, where not only are they lacking food, medicine and education but sometimes their whole village is.

The world doesn't lack money or food, the world is designed the way it is, having created untold hardship for most while an ever smaller group of people amass an ever increasing amount of physical wealth.

This doesn't have to be like this and it's up to all of us to take the necessary actions to bring about the world we long for.

Over time humans have been able to increase the amount of goods and services they produce at a fix amount of energy, yet all of those benefits will continue to be enjoyed by an ever smaller group if we don't unit and rise up.

Cooperation Over Exploitation

Cooperation is better than exploitation and we all need to make this an integral part of how we live.

I'm here on Steem to cooperate with others. I'm here because I know that cooperation is better for everyone than exploitation and deception. I'm here to share about these truths.

I'm here to pool my knowledge and money to create greater things than what I would be able to create on my own.

I'm here because the incentives to do good in the face of social pressure can often be a greater incentive than our own self-determination.

I'm here to speak the truth and expose the deception we're face with.

Most people won't remember much of what I said in my life but anyone can come on Steem in the future and read what I shared here and learn about me from an incorruptible source and of quasi indestructible nature. This is very priceless.

The Life We All Cherish So Much

Source

The whole money race is rigged against us. Money is being created and use against us and to rob us of the life we all cherish so much. We need to try to stop being control by fear and begin to help one another realize all of those deceptions that are being used against us. We need to stand up for one another.

This is not just talk on my part. I'm really looking to make this happen more and more each day, not just by sharing my knowledge online but also by looking to make my every actions ever more in line with my deepest convictions.

Life Is Not About How Much Money Someone Makes

It's about how much joy they create. Steem, like life is not about how much money we have or how much we've made but how much we enjoy it for ourselves and how enjoyable we make it for others. As I've said many times, this is easy for me to say as I'm not starving to death from lack of money nor am I in some other immediate life threatening condition.

This is further reasons for me to try to help others and try to inspire them to do the same. Everyone know what it feels to be in need and how bad it can feel, just like everyone know life would be worthless if there was no one to share it with.

Our Universal Desire To Help!

I've been on Steem since May 2016. I've been a witness since September 2016. I've just re-read my almost 1 year old witness application post today which was a fun read.

I currently control around 1% of the author reward pool which roughly put me in the top 20 most powerful voters. A large part of this (86%) comes from SP that has been delegated to me a couple months ago.

Over my time on Steem a lot of people have kept asking me how to be successful, to which I should answer, try to instill joy in others. Not only will it make you successful on Steem but at life itself.

The reason why Steem was created in the first place is to reduce the need for violence, it's to create a more peaceful and more enjoyable world.

The Only Meaningful Measure Of Success Is Joy

A lot of people think because their post didn't generate as much money as they wished for that they aren't successful but the money generated by a post isn't a reliable gauge for its success. If everyone created what the think would be the best post possible then everyone would vote only for themselves and everyone would receive Steem in proportion to how much Steem they own.

@freedom is the second biggest holder of Steem Power after @steemit, any post which would receive a vote by this account would receive around 528$ just from this single vote. Such a vote isn't a reliable gauge for success either and such a vote could be negated by down votes from anyone else.

To instill joy we should look toward living in tune with reality. This is the way to create consensus. Live by your truth and don't let any immediate number of votes or dollars be the judge of anyone's Steem success.

Help People And People Will Help You

There are leaders on Steem. @freedom is one and possibly the greatest but hasn't voted in a long time. I didn't provide my stats about my vote to brag about it, I provided it to empower people. I want people to look at the most powerful voters and learn about them and about why those Steemians vote who they vote for and what they vote for. Study Steem to make the most out of it.

I myself am looking to make the message of this post more accessible. I want this to be more widely shared. Not necessarily this exact post but its essence and the essence of the whole series it's part of.

Associate with leaders as cooperation serves everyone fairly. On Steem, leaders want to create other leaders as everyone empower everyone else. On Steem, trying to exploit one another will inevitably lead to being exposed as everyone as real incentive to keep everyone in check. There are no middle man who could possibly manipulate or interfere with any of the data.

Working Toward Advancing Society

We all have different strenghts. Some are better with writing, others with coding, moving others, manual labor, etc., and by pooling all of our strenght we make each of us stronger.

We need to expose the lie that there isn't enough for everyone and that the way things are, are the way things ought to be. This is a lie. Things could be a lot better for everyone.

Better systems of governance and money creation have been created than the current centralized one ran by governments and these newer and better systems are constantly being improved upon.

I'm here on Steem to help leverage these better systems to help us create a more enjoyable world.

Working Toward Advancing Steem

Source

I'm not on Steem to upvote the next celebrity fad, media sensation or billionaire's intellectual masturbation. No amount of billionaire's intellectual masturbation will solve the current inherent problem pose by the centralized money creation systems and the wealth concentration they lead to.

I'm not here to replace anyone or imitate anyone. I'm myself and that's who I want to be and that's who everyone should aim to be, themselves.

Here's a link showing the people I supported the most with my votes in the last 2 weeks. Here's a link to those who supported me the most for the same period.

Support Witnesses: Every Votes Count

Source

I want to highlight that most of the people I supported with my votes are people who support my witness. This make sense. People seek support from people whom they agree with. We should all seek to make these mutual supports even stronger as we go. Most Steemians don't support any witnesses.

Here's a link to see who are the top 50 witnesses and who support them. (Below top 50, my witness "teamsteem" is included.)

We can see that the votes from smaller voters aren't negligible for any of the witnesses and that those smaller voters often make a very important contribution to the overall support of most witnesses.

Every witness vote counts. Every Steemians can vote for 30 witnesses and those can be changed at any moment.

Click here to vote and here to see which witnesses are still active or online. (The red one are offline.)

Understanding Steem To Get The Most Out Of It

If we'd compared the individual pay made by the top 20 witnesses each of them would rank above almost all the best paid authors of almost any single day. I've discussed this in a previous post under the subtitle: "Witnesses Are Looking For Your Support!"

All of us, no matter how much money or Steem we have or make are seeking to make our life more enjoyable and this is what our posts and votes are all about. But the reward pool is limited and made of newly emitted Steem which are decreasing at a constant pace with each new blocks.

Anyone who doesn't understand Steem basic functioning might end up deceiving themselves with apprehensions not reflective of reality. This is also true of life itself.

Seek ways to make life more enjoyable for everyone and life will become more enjoyable for yourself.

I love to think that all of us will some day upvote someone primarily because they are in dire need rather then because their post is very valuable in itself. Knowing we helped someone in dire need is of the upmost value.

Steem: Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

Steem is already the most valuable place for me to share my ideas, I don't exclusively mean in a monetary sense. It has been so since I've first learned about it in May 2016. Steem allows me or anyone to be rewarded for everything we say. Sooner or later it will compete with every other websites on the internet.

As Steem becomes more and more popular, people will shun away from relying on the outdated platforms provided by news agencies owned by billionaires. Not only will the audiences have real sound incentives to leave those platforms but the same will be true of the journalists publishing on these platforms.

If we don't engineer those revolutionary technologies like cryptocurrencies, that empower the individuals over centralized power then those technologies will never come about. I'm pretty sure all revolutionary technologies and what they made possible seemed pretty absurd and impossible when they were first imagined.

All Social Networks Will Adopt Steem's Model

Source

I've watched Youtube trending page for more than 2 years now and I've seen only one video about cryptocurrency reaching the trending page, yet cryptocurrencies are the best financial investments of all time. Here's the list of the 500 most subscribed to Youtubers. I highly doubt there's any cryptocurrency expert on the list or any of them that treats of the inherent threat posed by centralization and governments.

I've watched the Reddit's front page for years now and I don't think I've ever seen anything related to cryptocurrencies, yet one would think the best financial investment of all time should be of major interest for the vast majority of humans.

The most liked pages on Facebook can be found here and from it we can rapidly determine those pages haven't been created to bring about the changes this world desperately need nor could they, even if they wished to, only Steem in conjunction with other cryptocurrencies can help this happen.

Steem Is About To Get Much More Viral!

Source

Steemit Inc which is currently the greatest force behind Steem's growth is artificially slowing down the rate at which new accounts are created. There are currently many good reasons for them to with hold account creation, one of them is that the current system is costing them a lot of Steem Power to create each new accounts as well as being prone to automated account creation abuse malicious actors. They have developed a new system to solve this issue. This new implementation will be release soon.

Obviously account creation is one of the leading metric when it comes to Steem growth as it's one directly influencing all other metrics.

I simply can't imagine how much faster Steem's growth and adoption will be in the future but all I can say is that everything about Steem and cryptocurrencies in general make me very enthusiast for a better future and more enjoyable present.

Steemit is a team of 32+ dedicated individuals including 20+ developers on steemit.com and Steem, the blockchain. [Source]

Redistributing Power!

As I wrote above, I'm like everyone else in the sense that I sometime get scared of not having enough money to get by in life but Earth is bountiful enough to fulfill everyone's need of space, air, heat, food, love, compassion etc., it's simply that these aren't distributed well enough yet, for whatever reasons. That's what we needs to be worked on.

Steem Seed

In my effor to help the Steem ecosystem, I've set up a Steem seed earlier this week. Steem seeds are like Bitcoin full nodes, they distribute blocks to witnesses and RPC nodes.

My seed should soon be added to this list of online seeds provided by @wackou.

Lack of resources is the illusion! Thank you @teamsteem for the positive messages. People don't have be pitted against others believing that there isn't enough love to go around.

It should be noted that by helping others, you also add wealth to them and indirectly to yourself as well. I look at my life and all of my blessings and realize that I would actually have less if I didn't work together with others.

Everyone is capable of finding their way in a community to help others grow, and I can see why you are such a strong advocate for Steemit. It's easy to promote ideas that you actually believe in!

I am in love with Steemit myself, there exists higher potential of possibilities where realities of love, growth, and learning are not a far off dream at all. I have no doubt in my mind that many other social media platforms will try to copy, but won't be able to have the same fundamentals and vision as Steemit.

Thank you again for your post, positive initiatives are key to everyone's success together c:

also we should warn people that faceook might try to license our blockchain ro make their own hardfork or google might try and BUY steemit! you have to plan for those possibilityies! but i hope they CANT buy steemit because of steem blokchain being decentralized

but google could end up just using delegated proof of stake and or facebook or youtube could use it to pay its commenters! all thoselikes getting wasted! instahgram could use DPOS and pay uysers and commenters, so yeah man bro OW it would REALLY help steemit and steem price WOAHHh steem price would SKYRIOCKET if for example facebook decided to use delegated proof of stake oiR a straight up steem bockchain hardfork

Life is an experience that we should enjoy(fulljoy) to the fullest. Most of us can choose to live life the way we want, and make changes at any time when it is not going the way we want it to.

@teamsteem - I am not sure if you will see this comment in the flood of comments but here goes anyway - I have to comment because I have been following you for last 1-2 months and have seen nothing but dedication to the Steemit platform and a disposition that always wants a better future for everyone. I became aware of the importance of witness activities recently and hence, this blog from you comes at an opportune time. I will go vote for you as witness. I am fully confident of your abilities as a witness for supporting Steemit growth. Your setting up a seed node is just one of the examples.

I hope to receive some guidance from you from time to time through chat or comments. I am trying to keep bringing my original content to Steemit and guidance from Senior Steemians like you always helps me to improve. Thank you so much in advance.

Thank you for taking the time to assess my blogs. I really appreciate your kind words about them. I am on PAL discord channel but it is true that I have not been too involved. Social networks and chat is a bit new for me and I do not understand much. Is there any way I can get more involved? Can i volunteer for some work - it is more natural for me to get involved rather than just chat randomly and hope to get involved. Thanks. BTW my name on PAL is also vm2904

I love the beginning of the post and the wonderful positive message it shares to all its readers, first that life is too awesome to die, depression and lack of wealth leads to suicide but beyond those two there is so much to live for and that's why humans fear death, I am with u that cryptocurrency is the new money away from government deceit, I think China realizes this that if they legalize it then they will have no control over the public but even with them closing trades etc they can't really stop the world from recognizing the awesomeness of this new currency.
Thank u for the tips, steemit is not only about earning it's also the love we share and the experience we enjoy , I love it , and wish to interact more with people and learn from amazing posts such as this one! Keep it up .

Its true, time is short and we have to use our time for positive things, that's the only way we can live more and better, time is not a measure of how much have you lived, I think the main idea is to be able to leave this world thinking that you have done the things you wanted to do and be happy with it, if we are not ready to think that way we need to change something in our lives

I am relatively new to Steem community and this was undoubtedly the most captivating and motivating post I have read so far. Very true, honest and realistic in every way.

I agree with your mindset, how you have portrayed joy and success above everything else we do or get in life. I have always believed and kept my faith that we all do get 'our break' at the right time. At times we might anticipate something good coming our way, most of the times we won't. But that's the beauty of life, isn't it? I mean, we all want the best things to happen to us on a constant basis, but that's not how the script is written for us usually.. There's a right time for everything we strive for, all we need is a little faith and the ability to still be happy about the course of our life at any given moment. I am not just saying this out of nowhere, I've been there myself, too. Have made sacrifices, have put the happiness of my blood relations above my own. The part of the world I reside in, family relationships matter a lot. I even had my low phases where I used to question almost everything, until I realized that happiness is not just about fulfillment of your own goals. It's way beyond that - only if you want to look at it from a broader perspective.

So yes, we all need to see, feel and live the joys of our lives all around us. Everything else will make it's way to be associated with our course. Nothing should deviate us or adversely affect us in any way. In my view, that's what life is all about. That's what life teaches us everyday. That's the 'awesomeness' of life! :)

Wow 1% of the total voting power of the author reward pool thats awesome

and that $400+ vote from that big whale account, that's just one vote at 100% and they can probably give out a lot of those every few days probably close to a hundred i mean they can give out thousands of dollars a day if they wanted, its crazy, the reward pool is huge and will only keep growing and we will see a lot of regret
a LOT of regret if you actually quit using steemit ....steem will be so expensive

people will be really sad if they get rid of the steem they had, people will wish they had their steem and they should remember how much they will be making off author and curation rewards....

One interesting thing about life is this; it gives you the choice to choose in any situation if you want to be happy or sad. No matter how bad it may be, you are a product of your choice. Now that whats makes life so awesome.
The awesomeness of life is what you make of it, even in the mist of obstacles make the choice to enjoy yourself. Yes its not as easy as it may sound but life is too short and one will never know when one's time is up.
The best way is to look at any situation as an opportunity to learn not to make choices that make life less awesome pick up the pieces and move on knowing you wont repeat that line of action action again, and if things turns out right then knowing better ways or improving on good choices that we make to make life more awesome.

Great post and wonderful ideas. Yet there's one thing I don't understand. You want governments to function without violence/imprisonment. How could that be possible? Even Steemit uses downvoting to punnish those who break the rules.

Is there a comunity somewhere that has no rules and no violence?

This is an awfully long post to get through! But thank you as you are sincere in your words and I have already followed you from previous posts. I admire your conviction and need to be good, that's in fact what I most admire as I feel the same. However, even though it makes no change in how I use or interact with the Steemit community, I learnt that bots get sent around and do electronic voting for investors. It' seems very unfair not because I don't care what others earn, so that aspect is not a problem, the problem lies in the fact that manual curating, no matter how you apply yourself to this, won't cut the mustard when it comes to zillions of bots crawling over the site. It surely isn't fair to newcomers but I may be wrong in this. It's a pity, as it tarnished the shining reputation I had personally thought of in Steemit. As mentioned, I won't change my habits, good posts as far as I can, giving an uplift by humour or sending a positive attitude. My curation remains the same. Sensible and random. I have favourites, I follow them, but hardly ever look at that list as I'm too busy following what's on the daily lists. Happy Steeming.

Bots can't be ban so curating bots have been a given since the inception of Steem. No matter what Steem always trickles down from the richest to those who have a bit less Steem.

I thought about this more after your response. I wasn't taking into consideration of just how big this is. You couldn't do curation on the fairest scale without bots, so bot on. I shall continue as usual and enjoy. By the way i made another milestone, I actually powered down. It's great. Now I can tell others it really works (people are sceptical) and that pleases me no end. Thanks and Happy Steeming!

"Over my time on Steem a lot of people have kept asking me how to be successful, to which I should answer, try to instill joy in others. Not only will it make you successful on Steem but at life itself.

The reason why Steem was created in the first place is to reduce the need for violence, it's to create a more peaceful and more enjoyable world."

This whole post is just awesome, and the bit I quoted above resonates SO perfectly with my personal intentions in life that it's worth resteeming purely on that couple of sentences alone :o) It's a timely reminder to me, as I've just come back to Steemit after 11 months away.

I'm still waiting on my battery with a lot of impatience too.

I'm think about writing the script and paying a professional narrator. We'll see how this goes. It's still a project and could take quite some time before being started.

OooOo yes videography is so much fun! I love filming acroyoga flows with @acromott. Good gear really makes a difference. When you film, you can even try filming at different angles. I've been playing around with that, and it makes the video much more interesting.

As for paying a professional narrator you can probably find one on fiverr. :)

Cheers to more success and fun dance videos.

Hi, I'm quite new to Steemit. Just recently, I read a post that quite a lot of celebrities are joining Steemit. I don't know if this is true, but I can well imagine that they may clog it with their money for content marketing and other marketing novelties they might invent.
Other thing is that when I started it really surprised me with what could I have possibly attracted some of the followers. I can't help myself, but I'd rather erase some of them (they make me shiver). I mean no offence, but a better society can't be build if humans don't abandon certain practices.
This made me think "should I stay or should I go now", but when I decided to stay I started participating in two contests that I really like, and now I ask myself if it is possible now or will be in the future to separate the resteemed and my posts? I'd like them neatly ordered. So, that my posts can be easily found and and those whom I deem valuable of support, too. I apologize, if this is not the Steemit developers intent.
As for the Aid goes, there is something like EU Aid, which looks fine and nice, but hearing who receives it in a Bolywood soap opera, I think it is titled Sia, is quite another thing. The soap opera was made to pay tribute to all the women whose girl babies were deliberately killed simply because they weren't male (something like 20 million are missing to make the genders in population even as in nature, and pretty much the same in China - at least their news tell us so), and among other things they also present how the landlords are using Aid. The soap opera was aired in the middle of the night. I wouldn't even believe the soap opera, if it didn't have a disclaimer, and if there wouldn't be sort of a scream throughout the Internet on this topic. I apologize if this reply doesn't contribute to joy.

Your articles are always damn hot, although they look utopian. Most people are held hostage by their governments: family, loans, mortgages .... there are many tools to keep people hostage. Many people do not have time to communicate with Steemit. I'm just trying to understand the meaning of Steemit. I find this meaning very profound.
Utopia always leads to a real or unrealizable dream. But I like your dream.

Ofcourse life is awesome, life is simple and full of colors and full of different mentalities different cultures which makes the conflict in this life and makes the life go forward because if these differences not exist so the life will be boring.
What i think always the life is the same But the people who make the change. In a good way or unfortunately in the bad way Every one have to do him self and respect the cultures if the others with this the life will go in the straight way.
As for the death; it is the fact that no one can ignore it but no one knows when this fact will happen so always every one have to do him self in a good way, treating the other creatures in a good way.

It's very simple. Just put the image in a div container inside HTML. The code should look like the following:
YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THE FULL STOPS
.class="pull-right">Insert Image here</<b>.div>

The first FULL Stop needs to be replaced with a whitespace, the second one needs to be removed completely without replacement!

or you go with pull-left if you want the image to align on the left side!

EDIT: @richhersey this doesn't have to do with any blockchain technology, this is just regular HTML, which can be found on every website on the planet.

Hope this helps! :-)

Greetings @teamsteem! Thanks for another quality post.

Suicide is a personal choice. We own our bodies, and the decision is ours. Most people will think, "It's selfish" or "I'd never do that." Those people do not know pain. They do not know discomfort.

Some pain and some discomfort cannot be fixed either. I do not fault those few in that situation who decide they are done with that part of their lives. They have suffered and seek release. Again, it is their choice.

Voluntary society shouldn't be such a difficult idea to sell. We are, unfortunately, surrounded by people who demand rulers. I reject rulers for any reason though. Just leave me alone. That's too much to ask?

On Zerohedge right now there's a contributor post by Hedgeless Horseman. Within the replies to his post, the classic problem with society is clearly displayed. Everyone wants liberty, but they don't want to let others have it.

Who are they fooling? You want your liberty, but you don't want others to have theirs?! I see countless examples of people saying or believing things like, "I want to be free to do as I please, but you damned for sure better not insult my religion or go against it's teachings." I'm going to force you to abide by my beliefs even when what you're doing harms no one or their property? Yeah, right.

They just don't understand liberty or voluntaryism. It's sad too. The world would be a much better place if all the people who want to control others just stopped. They're okay with controlling others because it keeps them in power perhaps. I'll never understand them though.

We do not need crypto to maximize individual liberty. Sure, it helps. We don't need it though. What we need is a way to exchange goods and services without banks. That is being done, and it can be done with or without crypto. The main benefits to crypto is that it is easily carried with you and can easily be sent across the globe. We cannot do that with regular barter or precious metals. Crypto, therefore, is here to stay!

I understand what you're saying about world hunger and it being a shame that some are so desperate for even basic necessities for life. However, I believe the main problem with that specific issue is governments, tax farms, preventing the free movement of people. Were you born in a desert where sustaining life is nearly impossible? Move!

Some people are born in horrible places without any economic or educational opportunities. In a perfect world, those people would migrate. They would go somewhere with better opportunities. Having a free society would of course make that possible.

Without governments and the rulers that control them, there would indeed be abundance. If you live in the right place and have very little government, you can survive off the land indefinitely without any outside support. Sure, that is not easy, and it requires work. It can be done though.

Nature provides. Even in urban areas, local communities can very easily, again in the right areas of the globe, support much larger populations of people without much effort. @grow-pro is working on ways to make local communities completely food self-sustaining for example.

The measure of success people should have in life is not how much wealth they have accumulated. Wealth is a tool. It can be used to further good things (like individual liberty) or bad things (like war). Good people must seek and obtain wealth through honest ways and by being successful too.

If they do not, only their enemies will obtain it. That is part of the reason the world looks the way it does today. I do not seek wealth to buy a "lambo" as a specific and personal example. No, I build it to further individual liberty. I'm doing what I'm doing to make the world a better place by maximizing freedom--as you are doing.

That is what myself and others mean by a person being a "Liberty Professional."

The world needs more of us, and Steemit is the perfect platform to network together, voluntarily, in mutual defense and purpose. That's the primary reason I'm on this platform, not for profit, and I know my friends believe the same.

Thanks again for your positive message and work to further individual liberty!

I think it's slowly starting to sink in, the importance of what you are saying and doing on Steemit.

Helping people to make this a positive place, very unlike most other places.

Not only are we all different, we all have different forms of joy too.

One of yours is being an inspiration!

And you just inspired me to work out what mine are - my main ones here on Steemit are to ENTERTAIN, EDUCATE AND EXPOSE.

But not so much to EEEW because the mainstream media has fully got that one covered!

This is my first time trying out Markdown, and subtlety is my middle name.

Thanks for being an inspiration.

Life is so cruel and so short.. I just lost my 16 year old son few weeks ago... just happened so suddenly, so out of the blue and still as yet we don't know why or the cause. He was my best buddy. Such a great kid who was just becoming a man and one of the reasons i not been online.. just so crazy. but life must go on for his sisters. so just got back from my brothers wedding in sicily, was not sure if we should go but i glad we did.. Not easy losing someone but when it's you child no words can explain it.. just not the way it's meant to be, every second is presious, every memory is priceless good or bad and alot of material stuff we all care about so much about is worthless.

When you say:

>A lot of people think because their post didn't generate as much money as they wished for that they aren't successful but the money generated by a post isn't a reliable gauge for its success.

I think about this often. I only recently joined Steemit in June of this year but I am already a total Steem nerd! I do see, however, how easy it is for people to get discouraged here. It takes a lot to stay motivated when you're just starting out.

I personally look at the long-term of what I'm working towards on Steemit to keep me moving forward. Steem seems to be the best place to "put your money where your mouth is"... There are so many social platforms to put our voice out into the world but Steemit is revolutionary.

Also, as you have said, I am motivated by the idea of helping others. I have chosen to focus most of my content on Steemit on controversial topics for that very reason. I want to help others and if I can do it by writing that's awesome because I enjoy it. What people have to realize is, if you write a post that's well-written, properly sourced and cited, and you write content that unveils truth or that can help another person, your post is worth hundreds in my opinion.

A lot of times when I read your posts I think, 'this guy sounds like me!' I believe that your approach here on Steemit is a good one, to inspire others towards a new way of living on the planet beyond the old centralized control systems. Your material here makes me feel like I'm not alone in my view of what the world is, and what it can become soon when enough of us realize and remember our individual power here in these current moments of creative potential.

Your words bring the feeling that we are dancing on the edge of the old worn out systems and, even better; that we know that there was already a voluntary world being created all along underneath it all-- we individuals already have the intellectual tools to foster this non-violent, natural human cooperation that has been suppressed by society for our whole lives.

Interesting that Utube and twitter have so few trending crypto-related entries. It could be that both of those entities manipulate the numbers on certain topics-- maybe cryptocurrency is more popular than they'd like to indicate. I can imagine larger companies tampering with view counts or any numbers or statistics that might affect popularity in the perception of the users who would have otherwise seen more crypto things-- those crypto things that might mean their certain doom.

Thanks for another great post, I appreciate your work here a lot.

Google's motto, and it owns YouTube of course, has changed from "Do no evil" to "Do hide evil." They even ruined Google+ doing the same thing. They were filtering out liberty related content, and us liberty lovers were basically talking to ourselves after a while even with public posts.

Agreed. Ultimately, governments own the Internet. That's a serious problem for crypto lovers. Governments are the banks, and the banks control the fiat to crypto and back process. They control the payment systems. And they control the Internet. I wouldn't have all your wealth dependent on those systems. It's a bad idea. :)

Want to know where the world has to head? Decentralized internet. Think about the control we are under by things like news censorship. Imagine, an internet controlled by its viewers. An algorithm search engine for complete unbiased accuracy, content that is paid for relevancy and helpfulness (Hello Steemit) We just need our own infrastructure to do it.

I am new to cryptocurrency and blogging as it were with the way you can go about formatting stories that one would post. It is way late here but I am so happy I was awake to find this gem of a article.
I have something major to share with the world and I already have many ways I would like to do this, but I am lacking in the computer aspect.
Also you were really helpful in getting me to see the bigger picture of Steemit, i.e. that I am personally not in a good financial place at the moment and it is I guess I can say now, unneeded pressure to figure all this out. I will be looking at this again I resteemed it so I can easily find it again and also I will look at the other parts, thanks again for all your work on here, it makes learning this all for noobs like me fun and enjoyable.

I was attracted by the cover photo of this post and clicked your post and was impressed that you have the reputation of 70. I was expecting to find how did you take this photo, but was disappointed to realize that it may be only a random photo from the internet.

I searched internet and found many results of this photo. I cannot find copyright information in your post about this photo. My concern is whether steemit can use this photo legally or not.

I noticed that many steemian use other people's photos and do not care about copyright. I don't have enough power or sp to fight for the plagiarism of images in steemit, because so many users of steemit are stealing images. I always believe the plagiarism will bring trouble for steemit.

I point this out for this post, because you have a reputation of 70 and your id makes me believe you are an official id of steemit.

I just hope I was wrong. Please clarify the copyright of the fist image of this post. Thanks

All images where I don't provide the source are image which I don't need to. I don't know the exact word. I think they are called creative common. They come from pixabay for the most part.

Copyright are a bad thing for humanity. The sooner we will do away with them the better but for some obvious reasons I respect them for now.

It is true as you convey, there is never any meaning of meaning of a life. Their survival is the starting point for their next life. they do not realize life itself is not forever and in fact we know also in this world we already have an intellectual mind to cultivate cooperation and mutual respect for human beings without the need for violence and this nature has been created for all human life until the end. to lead to an everlasting life

I agree. Instead of fighting the status quo we should continue building a new future that makes them obsolete.

Steemit is one tool that helps us do that and there are many others. The more we move towards decentralization and put power back in the hands of people the better off we will be.

This is an amazing post! So much information and links to other posts that also look amazing!

I'm annoyed that it's gone the 7 days so I can't Re-Steem it - why is it only 7 days? It doesn't make sense to me, surely we want all the really good posts to be Re-steemed and still seen and read after the 7 days?

This paragraph I love! <3

"It's a lot easier to live in tune with reality when our whole environment is also in tune with reality than when our whole environment is constantly seeking to deceive us and each other. This is why the more someone gets in tune with reality the more in its environment will also gets in tune with reality or they will avoid one another."

I feel like the world is so out of harmony with peace, integrity and how it should be that it's hard to align with it at times! I refuse to align with the corruption and evil, not for money, not for anything, so that only leaves the option of changing the world to be in harmony with what feels good for me, truth, integrity, caring and sharing - big task! but fortunately there are many people working on this and Steemit does seem to have a higher percentage of caring, aware people than elsewhere.

I will bookmark your post since I can't resteem it and work my way through some of your other articles, I feel I resonate with a few of them!

Thanks again for this post and all you do! :)

Hello my dear friend @teamsteem!))) Several times re-read your post. Every word. You're absolutely right. Life is cool. We must live every second, every moment. It is necessary not only to live, but also to try to improve it. Crypto currency. If look at the truth in my eyes, my life has improved a year and a half ago. Then I came to this system. My state could give me nothing. The state only worsens the lives of people with kadym. I have two small children. In Ukraine, it is very difficult to find a good job, in order to properly feed and dress a family. I was looking for all kinds of ways that my family lived better. I worked at home (sewing things under the order), I helped people create websites, I traded on Forex. Failures accompanied. And then I came here. I liked to write. Before that, I was leading my website about cooking and about Ukraine. And then I began to earn money here. I was immensely happy. For example, for Ukraine, to earn $ 15 for a post is chic. This stimulated me to write more, better and with all my heart. I began to travel thanks to Steemit. I did it with pleasure, went to cities, took photographs, collected stories and wrote them here. Then for some reason my posts stopped earning. But my pleasure to write remains. I wake up every morning and by inertia I sit down for my laptop. I never know what my publication will be about. Thoughts start to appear when the fingers hit the keyboard. And you know? To live is cool! You're right. I wish you sincere happiness and good luck. You write your posts so cool that they touch the soul.
