Talking Points & Dots & Views

I originally liked the idea of reputation because it made me feel really good that my daily ramblings and experiences were helping somebody. However, my journal views have gone to almost 500 views and that blows me away. If people are actually following along with me and taking the time to respond that is the best compliment I can think of. Even if they arent responding, but just reading about me everyday, that is still awesome. I think it provides encouragement to everyone. Knowing I have some "fans" makes me feel like I am actually one of the people on tv who goes on to inspire tons of people that they have never even met. I know I have become a groupie of some of the posters in here as well. Before I used to measure my day in calories and burgers, now I measure it by how many people's lives I may have changed.
