Hello to all the beautiful people on steemit!!!
I'm am so excited to of finally found a platform where I can truly express, inspire, be inspired and be apart of a growing and loving community. It is so refreshing as for the last 10 / 12 years I feel like I've been sucked in with sites like facebook, twitter, Instagram (and as much as I did love it) youtube has started to decline and become way too centralized.
I was trying too upload content and reach out to people, but it always seemed like a lost cause most of the time as it seemed that the majority of people using these sites preferred the more silly/comical side of videos rather than something that could be truly inspiring to people. Now I'm not by any means saying that comedy isn't inspiring (as I love comedy) but, it seemed that a lot of these "comical" videos were more veering towards a stupid side with cats blindfolded on skateboards, dogs farting out of windows or people standing on chairs deliberately trying to fall through them that seemed to receive 50/60/100 + million views and I guess I began to lose patience and energy with it all.
However, this year I really do feel like I am on to becoming someone who, cannot only finally reach his own goals and ambitions, but be able to contribute and give back to communities, help others through inspiration and bringing people together from all walks of life.
This year, I am currently in the process of creating my own festival which is all about being part of a family network. I know that this would be a great event to give something back to communities, help struggling artists/musicians like myself reach a bigger platform and to bring as many people as I can together who can feel that there part of something special.
I'm also looking to create music and art work shops for children with autism in the future (as i have asperges syndrome level 1 and really great with kids), but I will discuss this in more details once I've developed more towards getting my first festival created this year.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to watch and read this post, I will be back with another post tomorrow and any upvotes or comments for my first post, is greatly appreciated : )
Much love to you all
