Inspired by Sarah Cooper's post, and Maureen McCabe's New Member MEME, there are seven beautiful women here at Active Rain that have made the past few weeks better for me personally. We all started to get to know each other via our posts here at Active Rain, slowly one by one we have picked up the phone and started talking with each other. That is where the magic all started. Each conversation got us to know each other a little better, and friendships are blossoming.
Active Rain is this wonderful community that has made my life a lot easier, and these lovely ladies all get a huge THANK YOU from me:
- Teri Isner - your kindness and willingness to share inspires me to greatness that I never really saw myself achieving before...
- Margaret Rome - finally I understand why I am the way I am, and with your gentle encouragement, I remember not to be so tough on myself. That what is happening has a purpose, there is a lesson in it.
- Ann Cummings - I am so excited that I am getting to know you -- you are a neat lady! Your post about hand written notes came at a moment that I was feeling rather unappreciated -- our conversation lifted me even higher!
- Kristal Kraft - always full of encouragement -- I am a better writer because of you! You are willing to share and help others grow...
- Monika McGillicuddy - I appreciate that you are willing to share about training with me... Opportunities are out there to teach, and I look forward to spending some time in the classroom again soon!
- Laurie Manny - always there to share dinner with me late at night willing to boost me when needed and giving me inspiration that I will get through this moment in time. Your little victory stories at the end of the day give me hope that things will turn around soon!
- Chris Elizabeth Griffith - Go Florida, so glad to see you climbing in the ranks! We have to do lunch sometime soon!
Outside of my broker's encouragement and that of my friends outside of Real Estate, it is what I have gotten from Active Rain that has made the difference. It is not just these lovely ladies listed above that have made a difference in my life and business, there are countless others who have inspired me, written a post with a great idea that I have implemented, just appreciated me with a heartfelt comment on a post or brought a smile to my face when needed.
My life is on track, and moving forward, and if it weren't for these lovely ladies, I doubt that I would be on track. Each of you have been a great source of encouragement and strength that I can draw upon to know what it is that I need to do. Each one of you has made an impact on my life that I cannot begin to Thank Active Rain enough for. You have given the the strength to carry on and keep the faith and the knowledge that what I am doing is the right thing to carry me forward!
So, each of you I ask, who are the 7 people that have impacted you? They need to be people here at AR (not just women -- it just so happens my list was all women...) and you did not know before joining Active Rain. So let them know how they have made a difference in your life... Tag your post with THANK YOU MEME, so others can read all about who we are grateful for in this wonderful community!

10 PM Still in the office, think it is time to go home now?
I think this new agent is going to be a success. What do you think? Again, here is "the power of thank you"
