I agree with @cryptodan and I've said it almost half a year ago or maybe even more, Rok, you're one of the most interesting person on Steemit.  

For anyone wondering why I resteemed this post and why I'll share it in private with some friends, here's some of the very best excerpt below. But the whole piece is really worth the read. I'm only sharing those excerpt so hopefully it can inspire people to read it in full. 

You're awesome Rok and some of your writings are exquisitely beautiful and inspiring. I'm glad to be part of Steemit with you! 

>possibly chasing that next high - inevitably, there comes a point where the constant activity of fingers on the keyboard must rest. And in that silence, the heaviness of existential inquiries bears its face:

>Does any of this writing really matter? Who am I to speak with any sort of authority? What difference does any of it make?

>Yeah, it may get some comments from people expressing appreciation of how they've been inspired. But is that always truly genuine? Does it really make an impact and add something of value to their lives, or do they just carry on with their surfing and forget about it by the end of the day, hoping that all the votes they casted for the bunch they read will bring them enough rewards to cover tomorrow's grande soy-free machiato latte?

...

>Just like any marriage or love affair, there is the duality. Sometimes, it's love at the forefront of your consciousness, wrapped in warm ecstatic joy and appreciation in the celebration of all glory. And other times, it's a consuming frustration and anger.

>All the beauty, wonder, creative inspiration in the world to indulge the senses in - so much to love. And, all the struggle, wars, crime, conflict - so much to hate about mankind.

>Perhaps as long as we're breathing, we'll always be stuck in this dance between the two extremes.
