My greatest challenge in writing is to stick to one category. For instance, this hybrid story/review will touch on social networking, professional networking, real estate, life, cyber friendships, home and family. One category just seems plain wrong.
So, I hope if any search engines find me, they won't throw up their crawlers and will allow latitude, and be gracious because my intent is pure.
First, to make sense of this hybrid review I need to give you a little history. Let's talk about the Active Rain phenomena. You join thinking you'll probably be another face in the crowd. But after blogging awhile, learning, reading and commenting--you suddenly realize you have some true friends and just as real as if you were face to face. So it is with Debra.
When I log on and see her smiling face, it makes my day go better. She is one of the most inspiring and encouraging people I have met. She out writes me. There is no competition. I have done my share of reading, but there isn't a story that has moved me like the referred one below.
This is why I do what I do...and it began in 1918... by Debra A Brooks, Lake Livingston, TX
So, I recommend that you do yourself a favor. Have some quiet time, relax and take this story in.
Debra can authentically give us a glimpse into heaven. I, on the other hand did not die. Just almost. I think that explains why my experience was hellish. Actually, I think I can tell you that the edge of hell is "aloneness" and not being able to communicate, to hear and be heard, to comprehend and be understood. When I think back to the time I call "Tabula Rosa", it still terrifies me.
Active Rain, in the broad view is a real estate social network. I say "broad view" because you will find many different types of stories from pure real estate dollars and cents to more personal stories of REALTORSf© such as the Deb's story above. My position is that real estate sooner or later leads to life and living, and that life and living sooner or later leads to real estate.

I also believe in reciprocity. There are many Active Rain writers that will benefit by spreading some of there talent over here to SearchWarp. It will be my honor to invite special writers here.
