Not sure if anyone here remembers me or even noticed I was gone. Not that I would take any offense if that was the case by any means, but I really wonder the impact, if any, that I was able to make on the Steem community when I was extremely active on here. Last December was the peak of my activity, but I managed to stay pretty active through the first months of the year as well. Schoolwork got ahead of me, and then a difficult internship with long hours certainly didn't help by any means for me to dedicate time.
It makes me feel awful, as I was beginning to attempt to help with the Products of Help Initiative with several users on here, and kind of just disappeared out of nowhere on them. That wasn't the best thing to do at all considering what was at stake! With all this being said, I'm not sure if I am making a full return to Steemit, but I know my account has a relatively higher Steempower compared to most, and that is definitely something that could be utilized to a degree. Whether I choose to fully utilize it will be the real question.
I know that I kind of rambled there, as well as strayed away from the main meaning of the reason behind the title of my post. What I really meant to get at is that I'm so glad to see so many of the regular posters who's content I read all the time to still be on this platform! My feed on my homepage is filled with all the same wonderful people! Makes it even more tempting to want to get back into the platform. It sure does help me believe there is a future here :)
