Are we ready? I belive I am ✋😊

Let's make this year the BEST yet 😉👌❤️

<h6>So I have been meaning to do this Awsome idea of my sweet friend @BluefinStudios
The 10 Days countdown to new years and 10 questions... So sorry for my late response 🙏</h6>

But here it is all in one post and I will try to answer your questions the best I can! 


# 10) What was the best thing, for you, that happened this past year?

<h6>This is a easy yet hard one 😕 
I am grateful for @welcomewagon and the amazing people in it. 
The day my sapphire team @dreemsteem @BluefinStudios and @eveningart stept into my life I was soo lucky 😊 and I love that they are just as crazy as I am 😂😂hahaha 
Lots of laughter and I love you guys 🤗💕😘</h6>

*Still have to say the good news about my sister's head tumor being completely gone... Tops this years miracle* 🙏😊❤️

# 9) What was one of the most challenging things to happen to you, this year?

<h6>I think as much happened in my life with my sister being ill and needed help with her boys, lots of overtime at work and new coworkers that been a challenge to work with.
Along with stuff online and family... I always found great balance but this year I feel like I've been all over the place...

Trying to be everywhere at once... Helping the best I can and been crushed when it failed, felt like I wasn't enough 😔
This almost wore me out and I had times when I was really low and wanted to hide 

![MomentCam_20180830003952.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUMmV2BXrk9azExUqLXJHqamHFA5WsuViuRi3dGwZgKWm/MomentCam_20180830003952.gif)

Completely exhausted and felt small and useless... I know I wasn't but when you feel like that it just hits you hard. 
That's when friends who loves you and force you to talk makes a HUGE difference... You guys know who you are 😊❤️🤗 From the bottom of my heart.. THANK YOU! ❤️ </h6>

# 8) What was the single greatest lesson of this past year and what did it teach you about yourself?

<h6>That no matter how great patient I have and never gets mad... @steemmonsters just MAKES ME SOOO FRUSTRATED 😜

![MomentCam_20181121191317.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaNgajFgrawTgv8HGwPTWaVzHNDEguXksEy4hV4rToRnv/MomentCam_20181121191317.gif)

I kick butt.. Not as much as I get MY OWN butt kicked 🙈 I swear I say NEVER PLAYING AGAIN once a day.... Yet still I play... Lol.. Addicted? 

![bitmoji-20181216120752.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTriW9ChGoygh4BLwUgmkSBs4ZJ7Lq3xaWg71FiA3uNdW/bitmoji-20181216120752.png)

But if I should be serious and give another answer...🤔
I think I have learned same as @dreemsteem I guess... I can't be everywhere at the same time, can't do it all... It's OK to ask for help and I MATTER ❤️ that's a BIG lesson for me. 
It's OK to take a break, ok to ask for help!</h6>

# 7) Who has been the biggest impact on your life, in 2018?

<h6>This was a hard one... Glad it didn't say it has to be ONE person as it's more! </h6>

<h6>@snook never stops to amaze me, all she's going through and still has the amazing gift of spreading light and laughter 😂😍😘
That's just amazing to me. 
Love you ❤️🤗❤️</h6>

My amazing Sapphire team has blown me away by the kindness and love that goes beyond anything I ever could dream of! 
Love you guys 🤗❤️🤗

<h6>@enginewitty you know how much I appreciate you and thank you for always being there for me and making me smile, means more than you know 🤗😘😊 My hero! 
And this was the year my stacking begun and you know your jelly 😂😂hahaha 
Love you Titty witty 😘❤️🤗Butthugs 🤗</h6>

@c0ff33a 🤗my #teamhug partner🤗
Probably the one who has put up with my craziness the most this year 😂😂 hahaha 
You really have been the most amazing friend, I admire you a lot and much love to you 🤗💕

Others like @swedishdragon, @katrina-ariel, @thedamus @silversaver888 @Silverd510
@thekitchenfairy, @mariannewest, @ShadowsPub @thekittygirl, @carrieallen @princessmewmew, @snowpea, @monchhichi23, @maquemali 

My amazing #thealliance family and @ssg-community and @welcomewagon 
and many many many others... YOU all are in my heart ❤️

Ooo.. Can't seem to stop writing 🚫✋🙊
*sorry @BluefinStudios*

# 6) What has been the biggest regret in your life, for 2018? Is there something you wish you hadn't done? Is there something you wish you did do, but didn't?

<h6>I regret that I haven't been a Stackitus before August this year 😊
It's a great investment and I mean OMG the beautiful shiny silver just..... 
![MomentCam_20180822000922.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQF3GhLJSENrn96JMUKDqKG37c4sGZfnYSjiDFomaRpbt/MomentCam_20180822000922.gif)
Makes the heart rase and me drool... Lol 😂</h6>
This was one badass cool marvel coin! 

![20181205_183618.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVTtycwjJFL2AQhcomKJCJBhhiqD8vXqPAW5uX74kqdEU/20181205_183618.jpg)

Can't say what I regret... Hard one.. Whatever happens and what choices we make isn't always the right ones, but we learn from it and I guess whatever happened... Shaped me to the person I am.. I dunno... Hard nut Blue 😜🔵💦💙

*Not having kids yet... That's my biggest regret not only this year but my whole life.. 
My biggest Wish... Next year mabye.. Lol!*

# 5) Who have you looked up to on steemit? Admired on steemit? Been Following on steemit, that you have _NOT_ connected with? What's keeping you from starting to comment more and connect with them? No one on Steemit is unapproachable. Is there something you wish you hadn't done? Is there something you wish you did do, but didn't? Even the whales are large accounts seem to all be available to chat, or comment back and forth. It's time to actively engage, on Steemit. The more you do, the better this place is for all of us.
![bitmoji1310267535.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcTJvvaGhnZTLkFUMuCxw5ecnQzPGqFzqvEQrhjnibkyk/bitmoji1310267535.png)

Am I seing this right??? 
Wow that was like a novell question 😂 lol 
*@BluefinStudios What are you like?*

<h6>The one I think of when I read this is the amazing @ShadowsPub 
I admire her a lot and has since the first time I heard her in Ramble PYPT 😍 amazing show and she is the best host and her voice is Sooo soothing and she is the sweetest! 
Her support for others is amazing and she has great humor.. *Not sure she knows it herself*
I have talked to her and message in general, but wish I knew you better my friend 🤗❤️🤗
2019 will be the year I start bugging you with my friendship 😂 lol 
Promise no butthugs unless you ask for it 😜
Your amazing.. Much love! </h6>

One thing I DO regret.... Yes @BluefinStudios it just hit me 😜 lol.. Better late than ever? 
I have always commented on every post I read, answered all my comments...
Until this year...never been so busy and having hard time to catch up. 
I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT 🙏 really sorry! 
I still read lots of posts and resteems and comments... Just wish I could do it more as that's always been my biggest passion since I joined steemit 😊 YOU guys! ❤️

*Not sure it's what you asked for.. But it's what you got* 🤗

# 4) Who in your life is missing? Who is no longer with us, and has made a huge impact on you? Tell us a little about someone in your life and what they mean to you. Let us learn more about someone you care about and that is not here.

<h6>Finally a easy one 😉
There is of course many amazing people that I could mention and that has passed. 
My amazing grandfathers that was the kindest.
But there are 2 special ones, that just has a BIG place in my heart ❤️</h6>

My Amazing grandmother ❤️

![20181215_224700.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbiH2fYtRChpmtZotNhrf2mcFe6YCJhZgTWKrmzWATpiD/20181215_224700.png)

She passed 3 years ago and I always think of her at Christmas especially as we always spended it together. 

<h6>She was an amazing woman....always there for us no matter matter how busy she was. 
Growing up I just loved being with her in the kitchen when she cooked and baked 😋 she made incredible delicious recipes ❤️
She had the kindest heart and I admired her so much. 
I miss her dearly, but she's still with us and my mom has the same Big ❤️ and if I can be half the person they are.... I'm good 😊👌</h6>

The second one is my beloved Elvis! 

![20181215_223028.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdBqVyjL4FWDx48pYevpaSajrs7nnuyNEevrokSJDjxcg/20181215_223028.jpg)

<h6>He passed about a year ago, and those who knows me have seen me share him alot in my first year here on steemit 😊</h6>

![IMG_20170630_001256.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVhAXKBcRv3oSMnsC9NNd3KXydAYumktbAaKmC2vE6yUc/IMG_20170630_001256.jpg)

<h6>He was my best companion and friend, we had a special connection.
He gave me so much joy and blessings in life, that I can't be anything but grateful for the amazing 15 years we had together ❤️</h6>

![20181215_225039.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTPw2nYsvamrw4Rooe1rWu7P1pg1Wo5Qsf4pz4SwLkCjR/20181215_225039.jpg)
<sup>Just thinking of him makes me smile!
 </sup>

It's incredible how much love you have in your heart for people and animals 🤗❤️🤗
Sometimes I feel like I'm bursting from love that don't fit in my chest 😂😂 hahaha  
*make sense?*

# oh.. Crap I just noticed 🙈 @BluefinStudios I'm sorry.. Seems like some of my questions here actually was more than one... Guess the copy paste of your questions messed with me 😂😂 ohh.. Well.. I hope I answered them all.. Lol 

![MomentCam_20181028183445.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbDDJtcK68d9DzdEKfFbHYTnfwqJXhHZ5B6ozUkxB92Ff/MomentCam_20181028183445.gif)

So typical me... Lol 

# 3) Always give! This past year, did you give as much love, as you received?

<h6>Wow! 
I ask myself this question EVERY DAY!
I really hope I do as I'm so incredibly blessed with so many amazing people in my life. 
I receive so much love and support that I sometimes feel like it's more than I deserve 😊
makes my heart bubble with love!  
![bitmoji-20181230082850.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWT2UhWxx7G2soZxbtqXNtjTZ8vxnpxXpWwxd3UqVgScj/bitmoji-20181230082850.png)


I do my best to give back support and love, but I sometimes feel like I'm not doing enough. 
So I guess if you ask me.... I say I do what I can but wish I did more 🤗 can always improve </h6>

*Wow... Now down to Today's question*  😉👍

# 2) What Was A Successful Goal? Did you set some goals, last year, at this time? Some specific Goals for 2018? and if so, what was one, the really went well?

<h6>I don't think I actually had like ONE special goal... But I was determined not to give up no matter what happened here 😉👍 and Yeay... Here I still am... Still loving this place like home 😊 You guys makes this place what it is ❤️ </h6>

![2018-12-16_05-45-11-068.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWpJZKd9Ld8hwLzYfaYK5RrBdR5U2P5cpbwJZeWFScwTW/2018-12-16_05-45-11-068.jpeg)

I had a goal reaching rep 60 and I'm now at 63 so pretty ok... Also the things I have accomplished are more Personal changes, like not be afraid to try new things, going outside of my comfort zone, not limit myself.... And most importantly.. Belive in myself ❤️ that's been a challenge and I still work on it.. 

I wanted to do more photography and improve my pictures... And I think that's a goal I manage to reach... Not completed.. But much better than before... So much fun! 

![20181229_234433.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZk7kWF9sfhNEunB4vbPF8SmuEe1Hpjcy9QX2Va33JFLh/20181229_234433.png)

This is a favorite picture of mine that was taken this summer and with a little effect turned out pretty good 😊 I can say that now.. Well done! 
That is progress... Lol 
Also much because of amazing photographers out here that has inspired me and the support and feedback on my pictures... Has meant a lot to me and gives me the push I need to continue. 

Also am more open than I use to and today I never plan my posts.... Except for this one 😂😂hahaha 
I always write from the heart and never know when I start how it will end 😂😂hahaha 
That's why some posts are way too ooo long. 

I am what I am and that's all I know how to be so I will keep being ME 😊
 🤗Butthuglover🤗

That was my answer to those questions and only one to go tomorrow 😉

I wish you all a wonderful evening and HAPPY NEW YEAR Awsome people ❤️

¿Qué fue lo mejor para ti que sucedió el año pasado?

Hice amistad con @aibeluz y sus hijos:  @cesar.oat y  @lu1sdani, personas excelentes y muy colaboradoras conmigo en cuanto a formar parte de esta maravillosa plataforma STEEMIT. De manera muy especial nombro a @aibeluz quien me motivo a escribir, a compartir en esta página; donde he conocido a través de las letras a personas con mucho intelecto, creatividad y sensibilidad, entre ellas puedo nombrar a @carolinaidrogo,  a @etcmike, @adyorka, entre otras que escapan de mi memoria. Estoy muy feliz de compartir con ustedes. Es una de las cosas que mejor me ha pasado en este año que se está despidiendo.

 ¿Cuál fue una de las cosas más difíciles que te sucedió este año?

Estar desde el 21 de diciembre con mi hermana en Cd. Bolívar hasta el 23 del mismo mes y no poder recibir la navidad con ella, su esposo y mis sobrino; porque no quería dejar a mi familia sola en Caicara del Orinoco. Recuerdo que me decía "Hermano aquí tenemos todo, pan de jamón, hallacas, pernil, dulce de lechosa, ensalda de gallina" y le dije no hermana no puedo; porque es injusto que en mi hogar no haya para hacer la navideña y yo esté aquí disfrutando de todo eso y mis hijos y mi esposa  sin nada. Recibí la Navidad con mi familia y cené con ellos arepa asada con mantequilla y queso; luego di gracias a Dios y me acosté temprano.

¿Cuál fue la mejor lección del año pasado y qué te enseñó sobre ti mismo?

 Ser humilde, estar con Dios y compartir en armonía con mis semejantes. Debemos vivir, amar y aprender como dice Leo Buscaglia en su libro (Vivir, Amar y Aprender).

¿Quién ha sido el mayor impacto en tu vida en 2018?

A esta interrogante la voy a responder en el contexto de steemit y debo decir que fue mi amiga @aibeluz a quien le agradezco altamente sus palabras de motivación para formar parte de steemit. También voy a mencionar a mi amiga en letras @carolinaidrogo, persona que su alta sensibilidad y objetividad en sus escritos, que me ha permitido reflexionar y ver parte de la vida desde una óptica que no veía. Estás amigas, realmente impactaron en mi, para ser mejor persona y desde mi estancia se los agradezco altamente.

 ¿Cuál ha sido el mayor arrepentimiento en tu vida para 2018? 

Callarme muchas cosas que aún tengo en mi alma; pero no hay libertad para decirla como quiero hacerlo.

 ¿A quién has admirado en steemit? 
Admiro a @etcmike, @aibeluz, @carolinaidrogo,@adyorka y los sigo, muchas veces comento y voto sus post.

 ¿Quién en tu vida falta? ¿Quién ya no está con nosotros y ha tenido un gran impacto en ti? 
Cuéntanos un poco acerca de alguien en tu vida y lo que significa para ti. Aprendamos más acerca de alguien que te importa y eso no está aquí.


Tengo un hermano que vive en el Reino Unido y toda la familia desconocemos de su existencia, no sabemos si está vivo o muerto. Ya tiene 25 años que no sabemos de él. A veces entro en desespero y le escribo a la embajada Británica y no obtengo respuesta.  Lo busco por las redes sociales y no lo encuentro; vivo una gran incertidumbre, sus hijas no buscan manera de contactarnos y a veces pienso ... Ellos no quieren saber de nosotros. 
Mi mamá me hace mucha falta, ya soy un viejo de 63 años y todos los 31 de diciembre espero el nuevo año llorando y escuchando los tangos que a ella le gustaban. A solo un día y estoy con lágrimas en mis ojos que brotan de lo profundo de mi alma cuando escribo esto.

¡Siempre da! El año pasado, ¿diste tanto amor como recibiste?
¡Siempre da! El año pasado, ¿diste tanto amor como recibiste?

Di amor y recibo amor, de muchas personas incluyendo mi familia; pero hay un amor que quiero recibir en su plenitud y no lo he recibido.

 ¿Cuál fue una meta exitosa? ¿Estableciste algunas metas el año pasado en este momento? ¿Algunos objetivos específicos para 2018? 

Una meta exitosa alcanzada es estar compartiendo con ustedes y que de manera progresiva he ido avanzado en steemit y me he adaptado a la forma de hacer los post, a escribir con respecto, a seguir personas y tener seguidores.  Me tracé como objetivo hacer poemarios y publicarlos; pero no alcance la meta en su totalidad, ya que hice tres poemarios; pero me fue imposible publicar por el alto costo en las editoriales.

Ahora quiero compartir con usted este escrito
</div>
<p>

<center>

***Con tristeza decembrina
Reflejada en mi rostro
y salida de mi alma
despido al año viejo
Recibo el año nuevo
Con dolor en mi pecho
Mi pensamiento vuela
¿Dónde está mi madre?
¿Dónde está mi abuela?
Lloro buscando respuestas
Miro en el cielo a las estrellas
Pero no están mis damas bellas
Feliz año nuevo, feliz año nuevo
Y un abrazo de consuelo***
</center>

Friend @saffisara, I wish you a happy new year and with your permission I want to answer that countdown.
</div>

<p>


<div class="text-justify">

***What was the best thing for you that happened last year?***

I made friends with @aibeluz and their children: @ cesar.oat and @ lu1sdani, excellent people and very collaborating with me in terms of being part of this wonderful STEEMIT platform. In a very special way, I name @ aibeluz who motivated me to write, to share on this page; where I have known through the letters people with a lot of intellect, creativity and sensitivity, among them I can name @carolinaidrogo, @etcmike, @adyorka, among others that escape from my memory. I am very happy to share with you. It's one of the things that has best happened to me in this year that is being dismissed.
</div>
<p>
<div class="text-Justify">
 ***What was one of the most difficult things that happened to you this year?***

Being from December 21 with my sister in Cd. Bolívar until the 23rd of the same month and not being able to receive Christmas with her, her husband and my nephew; because I did not want to leave my family alone in Caicara del Orinoco. I remember that he said "Brother, here we have everything, ham bread, hallacas, pernil, milky sweet, chicken scallops" and I said no sister I can not; because it is unfair that in my home there is no Christmas and I am here enjoying all that and my children and my wife with nothing. I received Christmas with my family and I ate with them arepa roasted with butter and cheese; Then I gave thanks to God and went to bed early.


***What was the best lesson from last year and what did it teach you about yourself?***

 Be humble, be with God and share in harmony with my fellow men. We must live, love and learn as Leo Buscaglia says in his book (Live, Love and Learn).

***Who has been the biggest impact on your life in 2018?***

I am going to answer this question in the context of steemit and I must say that it was my friend @aibeluz who I highly appreciate her words of motivation to be part of steemit. I will also mention my friend in letters @carolinaidrogo, a person whose high sensitivity and objectivity in her writing has allowed me to reflect and see part of life from a perspective that I did not see. You are friends, they really impacted me, to be a better person and from my stay I thank you very much.

***What has been the greatest regret in your life for 2018?***

Silence many things that I still have in my soul; but there is no freedom to say it as I want to do it.

***Who have you admired in steemit?***
I admire @etcmike, @aibeluz, @ carolinaidrogo, @ adyorka and I follow them, many times I comment and vote their post.

<p>

***Who in your life is missing?***
***Who is no longer with us and has had a great impact on you?***

***Tell us a little about someone in your life and what it means to you. Let's learn more about someone you care about and that's not here.***




I have a brother who lives in the United Kingdom and the whole family is unaware of his existence, we do not know if he is alive or dead. He's already 25 years old that we do not know about him. Sometimes I go into despair and write to the British embassy and I do not get an answer. I look for it through social networks and I can not find it; I live a great uncertainty, their daughters do not look for way to contact us and sometimes I think ... They do not want to know about us.
My mom really needs me, I'm an old man of 63 years old and every December 31st I'm looking forward to the new year crying and listening to the tangos that she liked. Just one day and I am with tears in my eyes that come from the depths of my soul when I write this.

***Always give! Last year, did you give as much love as you received?***

I gave love and I receive love, from many people including my family; but there is a love that I want to receive in its fullness and I have not received it.

 ***What was a successful goal? Did you set some goals last year at this time? Some specific objectives for 2018?***

A successful goal is to be sharing with you and progressively I have been steemit advanced and I have adapted to the way of doing the posts, to write with respect, to follow people and have followers. I set myself the goal of making poems and publishing them; but I did not achieve the goal in its entirety, since I made three poems; but it was impossible for me to publish because of the high cost in publishing houses.

<div class-text-justify">
<p>

Now I want to share this letter with you




<p>




<center>

***With sadness decembrina
Reflected in my face
and out of my soul
dismissal to the old year
I receive the new year
With pain in my chest
My thought flies
Where is my mother?
Where is my grandmother?
I cry looking for answers
I look at the stars in the sky
But there are not my beautiful ladies
Happy new year, Happy new year
And a hug of consolation***
