Here is my story. Last year I was interested in mining crypto currencies at the time I registered for Steemit thinking it was all blogs about crytpo. To me crypto was like a Mineopoly board game and I could mine them all. I found out later than mine craft already had used this name for a Minecraft Minecraft Mineopoly game. After a while of exploring Steemit I found a lot more than mining crypto. I was mining my heart.

I started by writing about groovy quotes from people I liked. Then I got more personal and shared some poems and music and paintings. I am a teacher and a father but want to grow more and share more. About a month ago I revealed on Steemit my real name is Christopher. If I could change my user name it may be Christopher but I like mineopoly better. One day I may start a user solely for groovy education as a way to reward teachers and students to engage in education innovation.

Original poem @mineopoly

Username

The product is now discontinued
The username is not available.

Search near and far in this deep blue sea
There is only one @mineopoly.

Carat, Clarity, Color and Cut make me mineopoly
Mining the heart a little deeper each time.

Each time coming up with a gem
Sometimes dull on the edges.

With passion a diamond can be cut
Revealing 81 facets of light shining through the crystal structure.

Mineopoly becomes a little brighter with each cut he shines.
The cut of life hurts.

As mineopoly digs deeper he finds great cuts where the diamond was removed.
The mending is more painful than the cut was before.

There is a time for sorrow
And there is a time for joy.

Enjoy the name you are given
For it is here to last.
