Agreed. I don't write about it, heck, I go months without checking my stats, and the money is a tip, not the reward. The reward is the engagement, sharing the human condition and appreciating others.

The icing is meeting people like yourself that inspire and motivate. I like this piece and maybe some writers will finally have it click that the meta and earnings blabber is not astounding or impressive. Nor is it creative. Great job.
