DIAMONDS in the ROUGH Part 2
![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYTT4Sbi2T6bG8GLB4PvsPXPh3BiZScwuyoPwQZS3h7CA/image.png)

#### Steemit is teeming with "word of art" buried in hundred and thousands of other posts, overlooked, unappreciated, ignored. "Diamonds in the rough" digs for those gems and share them with all Steemians for their appreciation, enjoyment and support. This service only covers minnows and red fishes to help them grow, get what they deserve and become the source of inspiration for the next generations of Steemians.  

#### I have upvoted (my upvote value isn't that much at this point but I'm positive it will grow over time) each post included in this list and my hope is that you do the same should you find any or all of them worthy. If not, I hope you were at least entertained.
<br>

##### Brief Background About Myself
I'm not a writer by profession but after [Losing my Job](https://steemit.com/life/@sandalphon/i-lost-my-job-in-just-15-minutes) few months ago, I found my new passion for writing; and Steemit provided the perfect platform to savor the writer's "flow". I enjoy, appreciate and are uplifted by inspiring stories and well-written posts, especially by words conjured from the heart. 

I'm very passionate about Steemit. About its potential to reduce world poverty, promote equality and fair distribution of wealth. About its power to connect, to influence, to make an impact and to cultivate a much better world. I strive to make Steemit a better platform - [WE can MAKE Steemit a HEAVEN or HELL](https://steemit.com/steemit/@sandalphon/we-can-make-steemit-a-heaven-or-hell) ; [IMPROVING Steemit's REWARDS Structure - Creation of the REWARDS POOL](https://steemit.com/steemit/@sandalphon/improving-steemit-s-rewards-structure-creation-of-the-rewards-pool) ; [SUGGESTIONS to IMPROVE Steemit - PULITZER PRIZE for Steemians](https://steemit.com/steemit/@sandalphon/suggestions-to-improve-steemit-pulitzer-prize-for-steemians) - to be the platform second to none; to be the epitome of the world that the Satoshi Revolution envisions. 

Being new to writing, I spend about 3 to 8 hours a day in Steemit, researching and trying to find the perfect story, the right yet elusive words, which often results to procrastination, daydreaming and disappointment. What I found though is that there are many high-quality posts in Steemit that are often overlooked and ignored. And so I decided to spend my "procrastinating time" looking for those "diamonds in the rough" instead. I'm not sure if this is a better way of transcending the writer's block but it makes me smile knowing that I helped fellow Steemians in the very little way that I can.  

### Here's your list of diamonds in the rough for today:<br><br>

- [When machines destroy our jobs](https://steemit.com/jobs/@tlakmini/when-machines-destroy-our-jobs) by @tlakmini

- [World Read Aloud Day: Developing the minds of children.](https://steemit.com/steemiteducation/@what-did-she-say/world-read-aloud-day-developing-the-minds-of-children) by @what-did-she-say

- [When slugs play under a beautiful fungus](https://steemit.com/photography/@irvanhelmi/when-slugs-play-under-a-beautiful-fungus-d21b9128d30a) by @irvanhelmi

- [Our unexpected adventure - Reunion Island 2](https://steemit.com/life/@osm0sis/our-unexpected-adventure-reunion-island-2) by @osm0sis


Enjoy reading!
