0.000 HBDReady to turn 71 with an important message & change in tone
 ## I have dedicated 15 months of my life to Steemit & spent countless hours helping others here, believing this to be the future for those of us who felt out of place on Facebook & YouTube. Now that my family & I have been living on Steem for 7 months and I am on the cusp of a 71 reputation, the time has come to air my recent feelings about the state of Steemit. ## Please note These feelings are no longer fluffy and warm as once they were. So if you want to keep living in a dream world where everything is perfect, I advise you not to read it. If on the other hand you are interested to hear the perspective of a firmly dedicated Steemian who is currently re-assessing his ongoing dedication, please follow for more... I am already listed on [steemwhales](https://steemwhales.com/?p=5&s=reputation) as 71 but when the number next to my name changes here on Steemit, I will write this post. ## <center>WE WILL NOT GO GENTLE INTO THE NIGHT!</center>   ## <center>Who is @samstonehill?</center> <center>He was a London based filmmaker until he sold everything and set out on a barefoot journey around the world. Currently based in Bali he travels with his partner & two children. With no bank account he has been living on STEEM & crypto for over six months. https://steemitimages.com/DQmVtdxoWFJY6RrAXq5sCStfAY8vXRK5DDoRFWsWJdM3fST/p.jpg ### All content created for this account is 100% original (unless otherwise stated), produced by @samstonehill who invites you to use & share freely as you wish. ## @samstonehill is the creator of: @steemshop account where you can buy or sell anything you like using your steemit wallet [SEE MORE](https://steemit.com/news/@samstonehill/steemshop-launches-to-life-with-an-upgraded-system) @steemmasters which provides [FREE TUTORIALS](https://dtube.video/c/the#!/c/steemmasters), personal training & resteeming services.
