That is a tremendous accomplishment, Wendy, and also a great post. Six stars for post number one thousand. I have also had some "I did it" moments in life. I wish I could remember all of them.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
1000 posts is a good accomplishment indeed.
Achieving a goal can provide a welcomed feeling of "I did it!"
200-kilometer bike ride a long way to travel, even though for a good cause.

Thank you very much for the review. Yes, the bike ride was completed on a single weekend, a very rewarding experience. More than 1600 riders on a quite tough course.

And congratulations on your 1000 post. The time sure flies when you are having fun and getting work done. It is an achievement, and you understand what that word actually means. It matters when you earn it.

Comment from LJbutterfly
Congratulations for a phenomenal job well done. I have truly enjoyed reading your reflections, stories, and experiences. As a former early child hood teacher, I marveled at your high school teaching experiences.
I'll never forget when you wrote about magpies. My mother used to call my sisters and me magpies when she felt we were talking too much. But I never wondered what the word meant. Thank you for letting me know they are beautiful birds.
I will always remember Jonathan's life story and your family's love, support, and care for him. And then there's Sunny. I fell in love. Thank you for all the entertainment, education, and joy you delivered through your writing. I look forward to your next one thousand posts.

Thank you so much for this very beautiful review, which shows the impact of my writing. You have no idea how encouraging it is to har that you remember my stories. I am truly honoured by your words, as well as by the six stars. What a delight!
(By the way, the published version of Jonathan's Story will be released on Amazon from Sunday September 1. I'll probably write a little post for it.)
Thank you again.

Comment from Patty Mazzurco
This piece beautifully captures the joy and personal significance of achieving milestones, both big and small. Your comparison between Miss Three's accomplishments and your own provides a heartfelt and relatable perspective. The reflections on personal growth, perseverance, and the support you've received from others add depth and authenticity.

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Congratulations! 1000bposts is a wonderful achievement. I agree with you, it's important to celebrate our personal achievements, as children do. We can learn much from children.
My Poetry and art is a source of pleasure and achievement. I don't always write great poems, I write many good enough ones, and bad ones. But it's those great ones that give me pride and self-esteem.
Well done!

Thank you Gypsy, for such a lovely review. You are an excellent poet, and I don't believe I have ever seen a bad one from you. It is very satisfying when we feel that we have achieved something worthwhile, no matter how small or big. Thanks again.

Comment from Jim Wile
This is indeed a wonderful milestone to reach, Wendy, and I'm so happy for you. You certainly have "done it" in a major way with extremely high-quality writing.
It's obvious you care very much about your craft and put your all into your work. And that includes not only your original works, but also your reviewing and replies to reviews. You really care about good quality writing in everything your write, and I rarely find an error in anything.
But aside from grammar, punctuation, and spelling, you write so clearly, straightforwardly, and from the heart, and it's always carefully constructed and interesting.
You are one of the writers here I especially look forward to reading and reviewing and whose opinions I really respect and treasure.
So, once again, congratulations, my friend, on this milestone that makes you proud of yourself, as well it should. - Jim
