Brevity Rules... Thus Meet Brian England

By

Short and sweet, that describes Brian England 's blog posts. I'm not sure if Brian ever meets the 50 word minimum for posting points but I give him kudos on getting his point across without his posts running on and on and on like many bloggers do.

While his posts are the definition of brevity I appreciate that between his posts and comments on my and other posts his dedication to his faith and his love of others come through crystal clear.

Brian's dedication to his faith is very admiral. While I am not Catholic it's easy for me to see his love of Christ just as I do. Brian is not a "closet Christian", he puts it out there as I did when I was active. I'm sure both of us have lost business for being so forward with our faith but so be it, nothing is more important than a sound faith.

Brian has lived in Arizona for over 45 years and has an extensive knowledge of the area.  He has witnessed immense growth and diverse changes in the local economy and housing markets.

Brian enjoys being a Realtor because of the happiness that is shown on client’s faces when their Real Estate transaction progresses very smoothly. He enjoys working with all people and cherishes the diversity that is found.  He values honesty, integrity and commitment.  Brian has enthusiasm and the drive to succeed and treats each transaction as if he were the client.

Brian's education, experience and passion for the business have all contributed to his success as a REALTOR®.

Many of the words above can be found in Brian's "About" page here in the Rain or on his website but I wanted to add my words of admiration as well. I look forward to meeting Brian this year, and I'm sure I will, but I also appreciate our friendship which continues to grow right here on Active Rain.

Do you enjoy the cartoons written by my son (Timmothy N. Timm) which I use as a springboard to write my daily posts? His strip, Titus & Philemon, has run in two newspapers for years as well as being printed in my blog every day. Titus & Philemon (pronounced Phi - Lee -Man) are guinea pigs. Their owner is Joe. Timmothy has never repeated a joke/comic strip in the 12 years he has been writing it. He has never copied another strip, such as Peanuts or Garfield. You can follow Timmothy on FB as Titus & Philemon and you can also check him out on Instagram as Instagram.com/titus and philemon/ .For Timmothy's website type timmtimmothy.com into your browser. I tried to put it in a link here but it refuses to work. Do NOT put anything in front of timmtimmothy.com or it will not work.

HI Bob- nothing wrong with brevity!  I love his weekly video updates that are short and to the point!!!  What I admire most about Brian England is his deep faith and commitment to his family.

Brian England has a wonderfully strong faith Kathy Streib and not everyone is comfortable expressing such a strong faith. I was very vocal when active and it probably cost me more clients than it brought me but at least I was working with like minded people and that was great.

What a thoughtful read about Brian England, Bob "RealMan" Timm. The way you highlighted the heart behind those short posts made the whole story feel even richer, and it was a joy to take in. Thanks for sharing something that hits with both warmth and clarity, and somehow still keeps things light on the page.

Wow, what a nice surprise that you chose me to write about Bob "RealMan" Timm and I really like the idea of being able to meet you in person this year!  I definitely like to keep things brief, but contrary to popular belief, all of my posts have at least 50 words, or whatever the minimum quota is, although some of those words might just be marketing fluff, haha.

I was very comfortable expressing my appreciation for you Brian England , just like my post about Wayne Martin my thoughts are very genuine.

Good morning Bob. Brian England is a terrific guy. We have spoken in his tongue, briefly, a few times and become drinking buddies from afar. One of these days we may get to having an adult libation together in person. Now if he would change the music on his Friday post I could give up taking aspirin on Friday's ha, ha.

Bob "RealMan" Timm

LOL that is a fun comment Wayne Martin . Maybe we could arrange to go see Brian England together.

Wayne Martin might I suggest cloves instead of aspirin, haha.
