RE: Random PIF/Steemit thoughts & New Sponsors & 24 Hours Left in Week 7

in #payitforward6 years ago

When I first started the thought process of a contest it and asked everyone what they wanted to see in a contest it was great to see how many wanted to spotlight others. Then my Kindness of a Stranger & Paying it Forward happened during the same week as I was asking for help coming up with the contest idea. I was kind of funny how the comments from both and the experience itself lead this where we are today.

@simplymike and @kaliju are great and obviously embody the pay it forward mentality.

As for @revisesociology's list, it was amazing to be listed on there with great people like yourself. Then a couple of alerts this week have happened with people talking about myself and the contest and it just kind of added up to a WTF is happening moment for me. Not an in the spotlight type of person, more of behind the curtain make shit happen guy so this is not something I'm used to. You deserve to be on that list far more then I do!

lol...one week...well if I told you what you really were getting into I might not have you here.

Sort:  

@lynncoyle1 and @thedarkhorse, I think what you’re doing here is an amazing thing. Imo, you’re providing people the opportunity to do what they want: put others in the spotlight, but within a context.

(And don’t mistake my contributions for a good-hearted deed: I just feel guilty that I can’t find the time to join the contest, so I’m simply sponsoring to ease that feeling of guilt - lol ;0P )

Now seriously: I have a great respect for what you’re doing here, @thedarkhorse, and your name definitely belongs in that list

@simplymike I'll take your guilty sponsorship...lol.

Thank you for your kind words!

Lol
You’re welcome ;0)

hahaha @simplymike; are you Catholic by any chance? :) I'm happy your contributing and appeasing your guilt :)

And thank you for the kind words too!

Lol
Now I read it again, it kinda seems I would be, but not at all 😂
I’m kind of allergic to anything related to religion 😉

haha I was raised one then converted to the same allergy as you as an adult :)

Let's say we both deserve to be on the list! And we can thank Betty for you being here too :)

lol...one week...well if I told you what you really were getting into I might not have you here.

haha maybe? :)

More I think about it I think you would have seen this as a challenge and wouldn't have been able to say no...lol.

You are probably right on that one!
