I registered in Steemit almost a week ago. Since then I did not do much about it. I have published some articles, re-steemed many and made a few comments.

Yesterday I received some rewards. Or probably they were waiting for me for a while, I just did not bother to look for them. I do not know. But I was happy about that. I still fully do not understand what they are for and what can I do with them. It may sound silly, but this is the case. I feel a bit like the author of this post writes about minnows. So, probably I'm a minnow.

Whatever. Out of curiosity I looked up what is going on in my wallet and what a surprise - I found out a lot more waiting for me.

And I did nothing.

I am writing this silly post because I know that in a year or two it will be funny to read it. but it is a good way to understand that you have grown from a minnow to a little bit bigger minnow or maybe something else. And it does not matter what you call it. It is how you grow as a person. And the only way to measure it to the previous yourself.
