Counting My Blessigns and Wishing I Were More Popular Here lol. / myLot

Today coming back on the access bus, I shared the bus with four badly physically handicapped young people and two older people.They were a happy bunch chatting about Christmas and New Years, None of them could walk but they sure enjoyed the ride home, Again I did count my blessings but something, pride perhaps. made me just wish I were one of the people that always gets 34 responses on every thing they write, At timesI feel likeI should not even try here any more but I will as I love mylot so I will plow along and get my 6 or 7 or whatever. We cannot all be stars I guess.

it takes time and you will have to build a rapport with others. After a while you will find what it is that has people chatting and buzzing and what you want will happen.

@Hatley when people see your name more and more from you posting stuff and constantly interacting it will be much easier and it will almost seem effortless

We've know you for a long time on that other site. I always thought you had a good group of friends who commented on your posts. Don't give up, Just keep reminding your friends you are here by commenting on their posts and if they don't respond to you then drop them like a hot potato and find new friends...

@Hatley I've also found one post a day is all I do, knowing my friends will comment instead of a handful of articles with one or two comments on each one...

its very good that you are satisfied with you responses get because i always think that when i get 50 responses but now i think some people even not get one so we have to happy what we have and if something happen then accept it,

I think you are quite popular, you just need to look at it from another point of view. I post once a day and can get anywhere from 10-20 comments on that post. I just looked at the posts you did yesterday and you had 5 posts with a total of 18 comments. It looks like you are doing pretty good to me.

I don't know if you want feedback or not (if not, you can just delete my comment and I won't be offended) but normally I find your posts too hard to read because there are a lot of typos and I have to try to work out what you mean. This one is almost perfect - did you write it on a computer instead of a phone or something like that? If they were all this readable I would read more of your posts.
