You're right, we're definitely, constantly learning and honestly I'm lucky to have followed some good creators. Although I might just read and pass. Sometimes I don't follow for follow. I just follow if I know I'll be learning. I mostly don't follow because someone followed me, also, I don't expect the people I follow to follow me as well. Most times I think when people follow others for the purpose of learning I think it works better. 

I'm not sure I've written more 2000 words more than once or twice since I've been here going to 8 years.
