John -- what a kind-hearted and absolutely generous token of love you gave to place ME -- with THESE amazing writers?! They are indeed in a league of their own, so wonderful you: it is YOU who has encouraged me.

I thank you; I'm beyond flattered -- your writing skill and generous heart will carry you far here in Medium! Much love to you!

I follow many of these phenomenal people -- in fact, two of them Mitch and Dana are very instrumental mentors and leaders for me. They don't know it yet -- but I would love to honor them as you have so nicely.

I'm so glad to be in your tribe John -- thank you for the warm welcome and kind mention. Touched! 💕
