Active Rain Success Story: A Refreshing Eagle Experience in The Rain!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with The Connection

Bald EagelMy beautiful and precious wife, Irene, created a post today entitled An Outstanding Leader Reveals How to Be An Effective Leader.  She dedicated the post to Gary Woltal because he was interested in finding out how a particular leader would impact her from a previous post she wrote. 

Well, as most of us know, The Rain is a creative and connected community of some outstanding "eagles" who love to soar on the wind of inspiration from others.  Gary had just created a post today called Reach For The Eagle's Nest so my wife and I were soaking up his inspiration in The Rain when Margaret Rome called her on the phone and left a message.  My wife called her right back and they experienced a rich and rewarding conversation about her post dedicated to Gary.  Margaret and my wife discovered they were both NAWBO members through The Rain!  

That was the first time anyone in The Rain called her on the phone!  What a miraculous moment!

My wife and I both looked at Margaret's profile in AR and were astonished.  Margaret is a soaring eagle in The Rain!  Gary is a soaring eagle in The Rain!  What an Active Rain Success Story (X2)! 

 

This Active Rain Success Story is Dedicated to Gary Woltal and Margaret Rome!

I have had someone from The Rain call me on my cell.  I was pretty impressed.

Dan, and you and your family are soaring eagles as well along with Margaret. Do you know you three are the first time I have had "three" Associates from a family? That astounded me when I saw it. It shows dedication to something and an amazing bond of love of you three. I hope more people find out about you all as I have. Thanks for mentioning me along with Margaret here.

Oh my Dan! How sweet of you!   I can see why you two have such a wonderful marriage. You love and respect each other first and then everyone else. I really enjoyed speaking with Irene today and finding out we had NAWBO ,among other things, in common. 

 Thank you for taking time to dedicate this blog to me. I love soaring in the company with Gary Wartol.

Hi Karen,  I appreciate your creative perspective.  Thank You for your encouraging words!  I am blessed with your lifting spirit!  When you wrote "AR is an extended family and we are blessed to be here" I thought of how we are blessed.  I believe that our healing community brings emotional and social health and happiness to those who grew up in dysfunctional families of origin.

Hi Margaret,  Thank You for your encouraging and kind words!  I am seeing a new perspective from your comments.  We can't see ourselves except when others reflect back to us.  You are a mirror and I can see who we are more clearly.  I appreciate your initiative of calling my wife.  You really made her day!  Thank You for being who you are!
