I can not comprehend this as a reality, since I don’t write enough… to find myself at this point in time… is staggering to my mind. LOL I had no idea this place in my time on RB would lead me to the time I might even see or say,“seven hundred works here are within my command or feasible to reach.” I did not set out to have this as a reachable goal but find it is do-able and reachable here… and very soon to be realized as true and possible. Keep a watch… and see just how long from today, Sept. 12th, 2011, I reach a goal of seven hundred here. This experience will find me with a smile and satisfaction comparable to none other thought possible… so many years of writing could ever bring me. Thanks for all of your support from through the years… each of you- my peers.
With this writing here I reach my milestone of 700 writings and submissions. Thanks to all of you that have supported me in all my efforts over the years.

Well, 700 made you a Legend in RB. Those king of legends that the one making it is not aware of it.
Some times, it’s hard to realize the incredible impact one can have over others, in a ripple effect that always reach us back, in a circle of Life. So through your art, and your passion, you have inspire many around you and that;s the magic of being in touch with your inner self and create.
I hope you new goal doubles, cause we are thirsty of minds and thought, of common sense and creative impulse. Keep it coming, you fan base keeps growing.
Congrats.

I’m not quite there yet Yago… I have fourteen (14) more to write before I hit 700, in the scope of what I’ve written already… this is very reachable. I find your kind words even more inspirational than you might imagine, and even though you and I have only known each other for a very short time your input and knowledge and friendship is highly valued and important to me. Thank you Yago.

I guess that’s what RB should be doesn’t it? A place to find our selves by others interactions.
Russell Holder:
We do need the interaction of others… as much as breathing, for it is what can cause and stir us to activity… not only beneficial to others but ourselves as well.
As to your comment on “legend(s),” I have posted below some that could be called that here… but not me. Thanks Yago.

Russell Holder:
Life gets in our own way Lisa… sometimes but we should not allow it to consume us in the process. I ought to know, I’m every bit as human as you are and just as susceptible. Much thanks here Lisa.

I thank each of you here, that have placed a comment, but would let you know… I only feel like a prolific writer- for there are some legends at RB, and these are but a few…
Sally Omar with 2,261 writings.
Suzanne German with one of the oldest groups here at RB, and over four thousand members.
The memory of Pagly2, Dear Trish, as seen in this comment by Rhonda, on one of my works… she is still loved here and a legend.
