I'm with you buddy...still in awe at the positive community spirit here...there really isn't another social media platform like it!
And if you're ever in Playa del Carmen, let me know for sure!! I'll let Dean (aka mrmojorisin) know...he thinks you're pretty great too:)
Agreed and I will put that in my bucket list, hopefully I can make it happen! Tell Mr mojo risin that I'm honored and I look forward to seeing him too!
I just realised how it may appear that Dean (@Mrmojorisin) is my guy; actually @briancourteau is; Dean is our buddy here :) Brian, my husband, has cancer...that is what brought us to Mexico (it's a beautiful place to live out our time together:( . @johnjgeddes just memorialised our love in a poem, in his blog, https://steemit.com/poetry/@johnjgeddes/how-i-see-you.
He is another great guy here Dave....an authentic, kind heart like you:)
Having said all of that, we (me, Brian, Dean, and I'm sure we can make more friends:) would love love love to see you in person! Take a break from work, your steemit will travel with you, and come get some sun!!:) Then, and only then, can I rationalise my beach days hahaha
hahaha... yes, if we both go to the beach together then we can consider it "working" on steemit (just offline) ;) ...
I'm glad you explained more about your life so that I could know you a little better. I knew what kind of person you were without knowing hardly any details.
I'm also sorry to hear about your husband's illness, but I'm glad that you get a chance to spend quality time with Brain. You all sound like a great group and I hope one day I can be able to meet all 3 of you!
I'm also going to introduce myself to your husband, he must be a pretty good guy to have been picked by you ;)
It's funny isn't it?..I don't really know much about you either, but I do know you're a good guy! Until I felt 'safe' opening up to people here, I wasn't saying anything about Brian; but now I really feel that this is a genuine caring community (I knew that with you from the start!) so I thought it was time. I actually just blogged abt it yesterday and included a poem I wrote to Brian...would love your feedback:)
And I'm serious about a trip to Playa...geez it would be piles of fun!!:) You do drink beer right? not just coffee haha
haha.. yes I do like beer even more than coffee!
I understand and agree with you about this community here. I like the people I'm meeting and that of course includes you. :)
I would like to head down your way, its something that would be "piles of fun". I haven't been to Mexico since I was in my 20s and went to Cancun. If things slow down I will see what I can do for sure!
and yes I will go read your poem, it would absolutely be my pleasure!
Also nice connecting to you on discord, that makes it easy when this place has "bandwidth issues" ... lol
