It's been seven years already! Wow! On May 25th, 2017 I created my first Steemit account. I only made an account so I could upvote and comment on other people's posts. Eventually, I began posting my own content.

I even shared my experience of my first son being born on the blockchain.

Most of these years have been building building building. There's only one time that I "cashed out" and that's when the token exceeded a certain threshhold. Sadly, most of that was exchanged for BCH (intending to purchase silver with it), but I held on to for too long and I rode the token down the slide.... had I exchanged it for HBD and latter added it to savings, I'd be in a very different position today. Lesson learned.

I found a photo of myself and my wife with our first young child. A cropped version of this became my STEEMIT/HIVE photo and has been ever since.

Here's to another 7 years!

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. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.
