3 YEARS Around the BLOCK
Where Did the Time Go?
May 25th, 2017 I made my first "Steemit" post. I picked the most controversial topic I could think of - the name of the Messiah in the Talmud and a little later Flat Earth. If those topics weren't enough to drive people nuts, I don't know what will!
Memories
I made my first account after @mericanhomestead left youtube and was looking for a new decentralized platform for his videos.
He joined Steemit (currently HIVE). After he left Steemit, I continued posting regularly and gained over 1000 followers! Now I'm at almost 2500 followers, but many of them are dead accounts today.
Now @mericanhomestead is back on youtube, but off Steemit (currently HIVE). Go figure.
Early Posts
Looking back at my early posts, they didn't have any formatting, few photos. Had some run-ins with @cheetah, but I forgave him.
I would sign all my comments with @ironshield, because I thought it would increase my exposure.
I sold a silver dime for SBD, my first crypto sale ever!
It's Been A Great 3 Years, Many More to Come
We never know what the future will bring, but we always know what the past has been. Righting the wrongs that haunted Steemit's past, now with HIVE things are set to begin again.
Long Live HIVE!
Bless the Most High!
Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations. Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

"SMART PEOPLE today are figuring out how to trade without the creature being able to control them - using things like gold and silver products, garden co-ops, online bartering and digital currencies such as Bitcoin."
I'll say your time here has certainly been eventful. Used to love the talk show with your wife. Cheers to more fun on the platform Turner
It's been a very eventful 3 years for sure! We did a B&L show a little while ago, talking about... well what else is everyone talking about? :-)

Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 4/12)
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Congrats on your progress on the platform and in life. I don't know how I didn't meet you before.
A question about flat earth. Do you still believe it? Because I'm still pretty sure that what Nasa feeds us is bullshit.
I guess the time will tell, right?
Have a great day!
Congrats Ben! I hit my 3 years on May 24th!
From one firstborn son to another, congratulations on reaching this milestone @ironshield! 👍 I recently published my two-year version of the same thing, so you have managed to "hang in" a year longer. I could make a joke about how bright we are, but not sure my sense of humor would "make it across" ... 😉
The engagement with others keeps me going. At least so far. Last night, though, I published Memorial Day post, which included my final decision to powerdown from the Steem blockchain. Very sad to see how this "war" has wrought so much "collateral damage," but such is the nature of man ...
All the best to you and yours, heading into Year 4!
Those are beautiful memories Iron. Mine has some similarities too, it had no formating, was a bit messy and of course cheetah gave a few visits....😂😂
But look at us now. Mine is 2 years and counting... Crypto has transformed our lives and I can only hope for a mass adoption.... Where people would come to the light of cryptocurrency.
These years go by quickly, don't they?
