Endearment to POW

In March 2007, I joined the community of Gather after making an agreement with myself towards the advancement of my career and the advertisement of my books. I had just recently begun my involvement of the worldwide web, after an initial investment in the attainment of all new computer equipment. The advancement from dial-up to Broadband complimented this new experience adding to my wonderment as I no longer waited to upload for hours but moments an email, a webpage or photographic images.

In alignment with my books, I began writing installments from various chapters about forward momentum, nourishment and other tools that were instrumental in my own personal healing process. I learned quickly that others' commentary should be taken in attunement to making agreements to having disagreements, without taking them personally. Some comments were endorsements with agendas to the requirements of mentioning segments or titles of their own works posted, while others were obviously not read just a garnishment drive-by for points.

By April, after a bombardment of attachments to groups and various men and women, I became connected to Ernie through a Cherokee group, from there he enlisted me into his POW group and he recommended I give it a try. To my own embarrassment, my first entry had not even come close to grasping his announcement of the rules that I chose to ignore. I did not receive a banishment email, instead a comment of encouragement to reading other entries. The development of a weekly writing experiment with a 3-letter word assignment would commence and a commitment of enrichment ensued.

The enticement of friendly competition in accompaniment to the achievement of group acknowledgement and icon trophies and ribbons was fundamentally clear to the empowerment of all participating. Then, the Tournament of Champions, which stirred excitement and awe - a testament to the tremendous talent writing about environment, momentous life lessons, love's discontentment, and the awesomeness of fictional imagination and reenactments of engagements. Friends became family with sentiment shared to mend a fragmented heart experiencing loss, unemployment, annulment or confinement. Achievements were also acknowledged, as were prayer requests as this multidimensional menagerie cemented my faith by documenting wordplay with love's endorsement.

No diminishment, harassment or punishment to the involvement on a regular basis, just an assortment of mostly elemental women, mentored by a specimen of astonishment, endearment and empowerment that most men only strive to being. His judgment is fair and concise, with the betterment of our well-being as each week's announcement is regimented in accomplishments recognized, growing from first and second placements to comment queen, secret word mentions and crowns, as well as the refinement of the Hall of Fame.

The offsite web pages proves a commitment to excellence, a condiment embellishment to the phenomenal management skills this man takes immense responsibility and integrity of love's investment for our benefit. The garments are ornaments of a movement to behold, no play on words but a parliamentary place held deep in my heart. Thank you ALL for letting me fly...
