Let's Bloom Together

Once there was a cocoon that lived so constricted and limited on its own covering. She would struggle to set free, moving every muscle of her body to feel the liberty of the world outside. Whenever she gets weary, she would stare at the garden, wondering how wonderful it would be to engage with all the plants and creatures around her someday. But, in her tiny capsule, she thought she was nothing.

Then, one day, the right time comes for her to be free, as she tried to extend its wings again further and further, she finally has the strength to flap it open and realize its beauty.

As she lived her life in the garden, she began to understand her purpose. As she engaged with all the living things around her, the garden became lively and colorful. Flowers bloom, and new plants are growing!

They bloom together!

I love this metaphor of the butterfly with our life as a social being. Indeed, we can do great things together.

We started out like cocoons, merely observing the life successful people have in this platform. Then by continually working the ropes, consistently writing quality content and working together with the people around us, we didn’t notice that we are already one with them. 

In my experience, I once started with four thumbs up on my first article and zero tip, I can’t even thank someone in particular because there’s no one commenting. Ironically, the title I could imagine about that time was “Where’s the Welcome Party?” and funny that there’s none but myself, LOL!

However, that never disappoints me because I know there is no instant success in everything, not even in the lottery. So, I just did what should be done. I have read lots of amazing tutorials back then, and the one that remained vivid in my memory was from @McRonald. Eventually, some great writers I have known back then have left the platform when the tipping Rusty came. I don’t know why, but there are only three most important pointers I have known so far for things to work out here: one, quality content, two, consistency and last, community engagement.

At this time, I'm already in my one year and nine months, earning has been up and down, but always wonderful, writing has been a great outlet for me to express my world and hone this craft (if there is, lol!) and I just love learning what is left to learn in the cryptoverse. Of course, a big shout out to my #Club1BCH community for the boost of inspiration to learn new things, cause I never thought that I could embark on smartBCH. 

Everything is rewarding. But, read.cash is not a job for me, though my niece would say, “You’re working again, Tita?” whenever I’m in front of my laptop, lol! I love this platform, and I don’t want to pressure myself here. I don’t want to drag and suffocate my mind with what to write, because I want to take pleasure from here. Thus, I learned to pace my time. And, it works!

Our journey in read.cash is great and everyone would agree. Let's make this a beautiful garden by engaging with the community, find friends and establish camaraderie.

Let’s bloom together!

The title was conceptualized few months ago with one of my articles, I thought that it would be a good inspiration for @Jane 's 2nd Year Anniversary #CommunityEngagementWritingChallenge that you can read here.

Happy anniversary, @Jane ! Just continue inspiring others and enjoy your blogging journey! God bless!
