Great story about your Steemit journey - I think we've all been there. I've been so grateful to have found meaningful interactions here, and I'm sincerely touched by your finding some value in my work. It's a shame the medium keeps us at arms length, but it's a blessing that we're able to connect in this way. Way t' be, thank you, and continue on because your voice matters a great deal.

Hello @insight-out😉 I like your featured bloggers post but I almost missed them out Of I didn't set my feed for #payitforward 😊 I thought you were running out of the RC so you haven't submit your link on the comment pifc post😉 welcome to pifc and hope that you'll enjoy your steemit journey with us.

> and the amazing @egotheist

Oh no, now I have to live up to another high standard people place me at ._.

@bbblackwell ... I smile. I had some interesting conversations with him. It's a wealth here I'm afraid of sometimes because I can't go with all people equally often or on deep ground. With Brian you can. 

I did not know this initiative. It's nice that you take care of it. 

At the very beginning, I also had a mentor here: that was @reinhard-schmid. We often, long, &"dirty" talked a lot and commented on each other's posts, also chatted in the outside rooms. Now it has fallen asleep a little - but that's how it is: you don't have to be equally good and in dialogue with everyone. It's the intervals, sometimes more, sometimes less. 

Offer support to someone: most people welcome it. 

Greetings to you, dear Valeria!

Wow, it is nice to see someone finding my content useful and worthy enough to write about it again in the PIFCC. I actually use to write for this contest not that long ago and feel guilty for forgetting about it. I'll get back on-board soon though. To @insight-out, thank you for taking the time to have a look at my blog.

Thank you so much for a fantastic entry @insight-out!  Your attitude is exactly what we're all about at @pifc ... paying *it* forward and helping others out :)  I loved your two choices and have shown them both a little upvoting and commenting love :)  Great job!

It is very good to you getting support form @abigail-dantes. I supported both of your bloggers. I like to create a bonsai tree but I don't know how to do it before.

Thanks for your entry and have upvoted both of your featured bloggers. I added you to the list of entries, but jump over to the post and leave a comment with the link to your post. I upvote this and this will get you part of the bounty, plus more important it's how I know you entered the contest on a normal basis. If it wasn't for @roleerob I would have missed your entry.

Good evening @insight-out!  Just before calling it a day, stopping by and checking into some people who I am  ... uhh ... kind of watching over a little bit ... 😉  Glad I did!

First, very encouraging to see you creating a post for the PIFC Community contest.  Great job! 👍

The only issue is making sure you get the recognition drawn to your posts you would like, for your effort.  What we do is reply to the weekly contest post of @pifc / @thedarkhorse and then he updates that post with all the contestants for the week.

Once on that list, the judges know who to visit, the sponsors know who to support, the communities curators know who to go check out, etc.

Please go to the [Week 26](https://steemit.com/payitforward/@pifc/week-26-pay-it-forward-curation-contest-take-2) post and you'll see in the replies down below that post what I mean.

Great timing as this is the ½-year mark for this community, with some special features!  They have been "paying it forward" for a long time ...  You'll want to get your post here listed over there before tomorrow night.

Hope to see your post here on "the list" there soon!  👋

P.S.  Please @thedarkhorse, if you see this message before @insight-out is able to respond to this, I would appreciate it if you would ensure her entry here gets on our list.  Thanks!

Dropping by and supporting your post @insight-out.  Unfortunately, I have very limited time at the moment, so upvoted them, before the pay-out expired.

Hope to be able to come back later and comment on their work.




Thanks again for your effort to produce your first PIFC Community post!
