Best of 604 – A Phenomenal Success

What transpired last night was a night of positive energy, care and siblinghood. For a few hours, the global financial crisis took second stage, and Rebecca‘s positive energy and good vibe shone all night. Last night, Rebecca was incredibly generous in sharing her night, her fourth blogiversary (which is coming up soon, I think), with everyone else who blogs in the Metro Vancouver area.

To say that I’m very proud of her and of all the people who helped her in many ways, shapes and forms, would be a gross understatement. I am absolutely thrilled and delighted. It was a wonderful evening that brought together numerous local bloggers. We did miss some members of our usual crowd but they were remembered fondly.

Thanks Rebecca, for once again, showing how to do social media for social change. You are an inspiration, a role model, and a good friend. Thanks to everyone who helped Rebecca succeed in this important enterprise in support of the Food Bank. You, Vancouver, make ME proud too :)
