Thankful Thoughts: ActiveRain's November 2024 Gratitude Challenge

First off, it's been QUITE awhile since Active Rain has seen my face! I just realized that today as I was looking at posts, and people, that I have met through my longtime "membership" here in The Rain!

I truly owe part of my real estate success to some of the people that I have met here. Mind you, as they say....

BUT...then there are those that have truly come into my life...for a lifetime. I will say, I think it's sad, and my own fault, that they truly do not know how much they really mean to me and the impact they have had, and continue to have on my life both in real estate and real life.

And for that I am very grateful to some choice people like Debe Maxwell, Tammy Lankford-Baker and Chris Bohn.

Thank you for being in my life. I am forever grateful to you for your friendship, knowledge and fun times together.

Thom, Who'd have ever thought that ActiveRain could create so many relationships, share so much professional knowledge, and give us friends throughout the country? Glad to have met you, Debe, Chris and Tammy and others over the years, and maybe one of these days I'll get back down to Atlanta for a Braves game :)

Tammy Lankford, of course, would never think about going that close to your turf without giving you and Don a shout :)

Oh, you're making me tear up, Thom! You know I adore you and am so thankful for the Rain leading to our life-long friendship. My Ray adores your Ray and I know I could call you in the middle of the night if I needed you. It's amazing the depth of the relationships we have forged here.

Thank YOU for being such an amazing friend and business brainstorming partner! I am ever so grateful to have you in my life too! 😘

And, thank you for participating in this month's challenge. I love seeing you here!

Hello Thom - you don't need to search too far to see not-so-positive aspects of the online/social media world. Fortunately, there are also many stories such as yours where thankfulness and gratitude are present.

It's been quite a while and I recognize your face, but I don't think we have interacted much in the Rain and I don't think my blog has received any comments from you, haha. I hope that will change in the future!

Morning Thom !! I truly admit, that it has been a very LONG time since I've logged back into ActiveRain. In 2007, I was a newbie and a lurker here in the Rain. Time flies by. We forged some life-long friendships here in the Rain. We will talk soon, and I hope you and Ray have a great holiday season!

Hi Thom,
I don't think any of us had a clue how amazing the relationships created in The Rain would be in our lives. For that, I am truly grateful, too.

I'm thankful for you and Ray. I have called you multiple times for condo contract advice because that's so much not in my wheel house, and I really appreciate the help, but of course much more than that I am thankful for our friendship.
