Grateful for Over 2,200 ActiveRain Followers

 

I am grateful for over 2,200 followers on ActiveRain as we approach the end of this decade. Thanks to all for your continued encouragement and support. 

For many years, one of my daily practices has been to follow a minimum of five new members each day. Sadly, I never hear from most of those new members but every now and then I receive thanks for my encouragement.

Roy - when it comes to welcoming new members and continuing to support the many followers who actively support you, you are an excellent role model and social media friend. I appreciate all that you have done over the many years and no matter who I comment on, more than likely you beat me to it and already commented in your usual friendly manner. You represent the best of ActiveRain!

Thank you!

 Good morning, Roy Kelley I follow 654 as of this day.... and for each one, there was a reason.... if I follow a new member, it's because they are sharing some good thoughts...

As of this morning, I am following 19,470 members. I wonder how many of them are still active.

Good morning, Roy... you are an inspiration to us all in the Rain with your encouragement of both "old" and new members. I am not surprised that you never hear from many of the new ones whom you follow... I have experienced the same. But I'm more "distressed" by the number of members I follow and on whose posts I comment who never respond or comment back.

Roy, sadly after most of the new members write a post, some never return.  You have a lot of followers - KUDOS.

You deserve everyone of your followers, Roy. I too am saddened by the lack of interaction with most of the new AR members. A few stayed on for a bit, and participated, but I'm guessing they didn't get the results they wanted and now are gone. 

Congratulations to you.

WOW 2200 followers! I am not sure how many I have but I know it is not even half of how many you have. I thank you for all the support you have shown me over the years. Happy new years to you and Delores.

Congratulations Roy! I love your pictures and your post.  You always share positive comments and you are appreciated.  I can't believe you follow so many people - your post are always interesting. I thought I was the only one that followed a bunch of people but didn't get as many follows.  Of course I am not as active as you are in the rain.  Keep inspiring us!
