HI Guillaume, thanks for all your hard work & positive vibes you put on this platform. One of the first posts I read that made me realize what Steemit was about was one of your looong posts. At first I wasn't using it "properly", just posting and waiting, not interacting with others. Steemit already changed my life. It's helping me keep my passion for art as my full time career.

 I don't own a car or have tons of "things" I buy on credit. I don't believe in debt. Debt is what gets people into the money system with no escape because they fear losing everything they come to rely on. So I don;t have a lot of expenses, but with the corporate censorship on other platforms preventing my posts from being seen by even my own followers, I was close to giving up and getting a job for a while. Now Steemit is filling in the blanks for me! I think I share a lot of the beliefs about the possibilities of a future without a corporate for profit government. Looking forward to getting to know Steemit and you better over time. Are there any Steemit events in Montreal? Maybe we'll meet in real life some time :)
