This is my last blog entry in this luxury real estate blog. After more than a year of blogging on my ActiveRain blog, I'm afraid my time has come to an end. I'm about to move on to something new and scary, but I suppose change always involves some degree of fear and discomfort.
Thank you very much, everyone who has taken the time to share their thoughts on this blog. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to respond to all of your comments, but I definitely read them all and tried to incorporate what I learned into future posts. I have grown a lot in the past year and a half and I think you can definitely see that by going back through my many blog entries and seeing me try to articulate my feelings and ideas.
I don't know if I'll be able to respond to your comments on this blog entry, so I hope you won't be offended if you write me something and I am unable to respond for some time. Thank you again for sharing a wonderful discussion with me. I would say more, but once again I feel compelled to hold my tongue and simply encourage you to keep holding to hope in these perilous times. Don't put your trust in men, but build your foundation on something sure.
Farewell, my friends.
Sincerely,
Robert Lockard

Dear Randall,
Unfortunately, both. I'm about to leave my position at LuxuryRealEstate.com in Seattle and do something different. I'm sorry I can't be more specific, since it's a bit personal, but if you are interested I can certainly talk about it in private emails via my personal email account, which I added a link to in my signature. Thanks for asking.
Sincerely,

Dear Ron,
Good point. I'm not leaving because of any problem with demand for my services or anything like that. It's just an incredibly positive change in my life is about to happen and I have to change along with it. Thank you again for your comment.
