My journey to 500,000 points on Active Rain

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Sharon Lee's Virtual Assistance

Good evening everyone-On January 1 of 2014 will be 6 yrs since I joined AR.  I actually learned about AR a few months before that and started exploring it, trying to find out what it was all about. After  6 yrs., 5.9 yrs of them officially, I can honestly say it has completely changed my life. It opened up this huge window into a exciting, fascinating and incredible world that I would have never dreamed possible. I have learned so much, met virtually many wonderful people and talked to some on the phone which was cool.  I hope to meet many of them when I am free to travel.

This place is like none I have seen anywhere. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I have laughed, cried, sent prayers to folks, been encouraged by fellow members and friends, sent virtual hugs, congrats to friends and flowers on featured posts.  The education on this social media platform is unparalleled and is #1 in my book. The sharing, caring and love is simply amazing and wonderful. The staff is top notch and really genuinely care about the members.  You can build a better business by blogging, you can feel secure in referring someone to a different area of the country or Canada thru learning and reading the blogs of many consummate professionals and know they will be taken care of the same way you would.

The absolute BEST thing about Active Rain is the Heart of the PEOPLE who make up this place called Active Rain.  I know I am a much more knowledgeable person because of all of YOU.  You all have given me lots of smiles and warm fuzzies over the years and for that I thank each and everyone of you I have connected with. My life is richer because of YOU.

As I finish this post it will put me over the 500.000 mark. I thought the number it showed before I wrote this was a pretty cool number. Fitting for such a cool place to be a part of for 6 yrs. While the journey to 500,000 has been reached much quicker by some I wasn't running a race. I was learning and building friendships ONE DAY AT A TIME and that in my book is PRICELESS.   God Bless each one of YOU.

 

Sincerely Sharon Lee

One advantage of my lurking self is when I circle around and comment again I am not only a pest you get to smile at but I add to that point total for you on your way to a million. You never thought having a pest in your life was such a good thing did you? Why are you going to the cabinet under the sink to reach for the Black Flag?

Who says I am smiling lurker G, Now as far as points go. I would say I add MORE to your total than you do mine because of our shared beginning here on AR.

Sharon,

I'm sorry that I missed this post last week.  Congratulations on hitting the 500,000 point mile stone.  I agree with all that you said above - most of all the part about the heart of community.

Sondra-That is no problem. You stopped and visited and that is what is most important and you are right about the heart of the community. It is wonderful.

My friend, Sharon! Like Sondra, I'm remiss in getting to read this much later than I should have...how very wonderful of you to bestow gratitude amongst your substantial following. You are a blessing in many of our worlds, and hopefully in your very humble deep deep self, you will acknowledge that. Even Mother Teresa in her day probably said, "today I made a difference"!

Gayle my friend-I am no where near the person Mother Teresa was.  I do acknowledge that I am a deep, deep thinker and if I am a blessing to the people I know then that makes me VERY happy because the people in my life here at AR are certainly a blessing to me.

You can't get rid of a lurker. They are like a bad penny. I don't know about comparing commenting each place. VERY rarely do I miss yours....   :) Pests are very good in that area....

Mr Lurker G I am not talking about comparing comments on each others posts I am talking about the points you get every time I post because I signed up as your referral. What, you think I didn't know about that. You should know I am no dummy.
