Thanks, @raj808, for that extremely generous critique of my writing. You know you were one of my earliest contacts here. So encouraging and uplifting. If not for that early encouragement, I probably would not have stayed.
Your talent, of course, is extraordinary. You have the kind of spark that cannot be manufactured. It's a gift. But you have refined that gift. I wish for you in the future the wider audience your talent deserves. And of course, material rewards commensurate with your talent.
I'll be more diligent in checking you posts.
With great affection,
Your friend, Ag

It's easy when it's the truth :)
That is really gratifying to hear. I feel the same way about most of the people I've written about in this post, including yourself. There have many times when your feedback kept me from chucking in the towel, especially during the crazy times of the proliferation of bidbots, when it straight up looked like this platform simply didn't care about the content of peoples posts.
Anyway, I must beat myself round the head a little to make sure I'm more active checking out your posts also.
Much love!
Raj, we just can't keep up with all the good content at Steemit and still get a healthy dose of sleep at night. (Which reminds me: how well do you sleep, and have you tried the diaphragm breathing thing that's all the rage now?)
I love seeing friendships flourish here at Steem, like you and Agmoore, and I wish we could all get along like this. Making enemies is not my goal, and I have apologized to whoever I unintentionally offended, and my loyalty is not limited to one hive, one community, one hashtag. Some may seek revenge on those who allegedly didn't offer unconditional support no matter what (like these downvoters and trolls who invade our wallets with threats of a downvote if we don't unvote some witness). I'm here for the writing, the community, the encouragement and support--and I've found it with people like you, Raj and Agmoore. Thank you for being here. I sense you will never have to do 'damage control' or seek forgiveness and mercy as I've been called to do. And off I go now, Putting out fires, bringing rain to the scorched ruins, doing what I can to herald an era of peace and good will....
