I failed to remember an important anniversary.
February 21st, 2007, marked my 1 year anniversary in the Rain. Thank you Loreena Yeo, for the invitation to join.
Wow, I can't believe a whole YEAR has passed.
Time certainly seems to accelerate as we age.
I cannot even begin to describe how this year has unfolded both personally and professionally and I'm sure many of you would relay the same. Thank God we don't know what the future holds and can wake up each day with a fresh start.
I hope in the year that I've been an "active" Active Rain member, that my contributions have been worthy of your viewing and that my contributions have been of some value to you.
I know I've posted some things and have gone back and deleted and tweaked because I "matured" in my blogging technique.
Here's some insight to the people I've met and the things I've learned, done and gained:
- I discovered the power of "social networking" and having a "voice" through blogging that can relate to others
- I've tried to be myself as much as I could in my writing
- I've made some AMAZING FRIENDSHIPS here and my "distro" knows who they are and although we have not yet met in the flesh my sistahs, OH one day we shall...
- I have been contacted by some awesome people who are going to be pivotal in my growth
- I hosted the first of many AR Stager's Roundtables and had the pleasure of meeting my fellow stagers from around the state
- I have become a published author thanks to the recommendations of fellow AR members
- I have started teaching at the College level a subject that is near and dear to my heart - Home Staging
- I am seen as an expert in my field
- I have learned life lessons and grown as a human being in body, mind and most of all spirit
Thank you to all the countless RE pros who I read and learn from on a regular basis. For writing me personally and sharing yourselves with me on the Internet superhighway. I have made friends from coast to coast, Canada and beyond. I plan to meet some fellow AR members on my way home to Florida this summer and others we will plan and schedule.
This is truly an awesome network and is made possible by the souls who dwell here.
Thank you one and all and I look so forward to what lies ahead!
The journey is the reward my friends.
