The Pay-it-forward Community

Post by funsongs » Sat Apr 22, 2017 10:50 am

Saturday-morning greetings, Forums-Folks.
It's on my mind and in my thoughts to express my gratitude to the "pay-it-forward" mentality that is one of the hallmarks of the Taxi Community.
Reading of the success stories here, and having benefited from help from other Taxi members
(though I've not participated much in submitting to listings)... I was reminded of words I heard from a missionary serving in a foreign land:
"Until your vision is clear - help someone else with theirs."

In a way - that's been my observation around here; it's tangible... and I dig that. :)

Yes, I've been the beneficiary of that as well around here. Well said Peter!

I think many of us have been recipients of this wonderful community spirit - passing it forward is a great way to say thank you :)

I'm always stunned by how helpful Taxi folk are, and have benefited from some great advice from wonderful people who took the time to generously share their knowledge whilst seeking nothing in return (you know who you are. ;) ). One day, I hope I can do for others as they have done for me. Until then, I have to join in the chorus and say .... 'Thank You'!
