In my article today for the **steemit engagement challenge** I would be sharing with you my steemit friend I want to meet. *** ##### Introduction *** A friend can be found and made even in unexpected places, one quality of a friend is support, encouragement and care, when someone wants your growth and encourages you that person is a friend and it doesn’t matter how long you have known this person. A friend can also be someone who inspires you to do better and put in more work. On this amazing social media platform I have had interactions with others and made a few friends, A friend i would like to meet is @barnabie. *** ##### How I got to know @barnabie *** I got to meet the @barbaabie when I joined the wonderful steemalive community. On my first introductory post in the community I was added to the WhatsApp group chat for members of the community in my region port-harcourt. Everyone was nice and @barnarbie was really welcoming and even made some jokes that made me feel comfortable and accepted. *** ##### What I admire about this person *** I admire the enthusiasm and spirit of @barnabie on this platform, he is always making post that educates and motivates, also he is up and about making comments that shows interaction with my post and others. I admire his friendly nature and his make a joke to lighten spirits attitude. One time when I was slacking with posting, he said to me that I should try and put in more effort that I would make impact and that got to me. I was happy someone believed in me. Most at times in life, one just needs that extra push to do the unimaginable, when you have positive friends around you, somehow their energy rubs off on you. That is the power of a friend. **** ##### Why I want to meet him *** I want the steemian @barnabie because like I said earlier he is a friendly person and from our interactions he would be a fun to be with person. Also he is a smart individual who I would want to learn a lot from. *** ##### What I would like to mention *** Dear @barnabie keep being you, their are lots of people you inspire with your lifestyle. Thanks for being an inspiration to me without even knowing. **** ##### Conclusion **** Friendship is like the spice of life, as people go along the journey of life, we each meet people we like for one reason or the other. Different and unique in their own way. There are others I consider friends I would also love to meet, but seeing that we should not include CR and Mod’s I would just like to give a shout out to them ~@focusnow, @prolee thank you all for being nice and encouraging to me and for just being you. I invite: @tunes01 @preshymukel @ijebest to kindly participate in this contest I would love to read your entry.
