Hi m8y.

Thanks for the compliment, and I do save the majority of my creative writing for submitting outside of steem these days. No luck yet, but it is only a matter of time :)

I want to toast to your values and to the positive impact that you brought in people's lives through your always meaningful, human and real words.

Amen to that. When all else is said and done this is one of the greatest successes of steem. Bringing like minded people together to grow and develop :)
