Right on! It is definitely important to step back and realize what an exciting time it is to be on this platform. When I first started (just a couple months ago), I felt like I was late to the game.  I still wish I had found Steemit a year or more ago, but when you look at the big picture, we are still in the early days. I am just thankful to be here now, slowly growing with the platform, and I am trying to learn as much as I can along the way. Thanks to you, and other generous longtime Steemers, for sharing your knowledge.
