A couple of weeks ago, I was approaching 21,000 tweets. What an accomplishment, right? OK, just wanted you to know.

Goodnight!

No, really, I was within 10 tweets and I thought, let’s do something fun. How about for my last six tweets up to 21,000 I tell you six things about me? It was just a fun, little thing.

Here are my six things (remember when reading a tweet stream, read bottom to top);

Tweets- Six things

I know, interesting, right? Really, no sarcasm….I think I’m interesting. I mean, think about it, if I don’t think I’m interesting….why would other people?

Anyway, other people joined in and before I knew it, it was three hours later we literally had hundreds of people sharing six things. And they loved doing it. They loved to remember what made them unique, what made them special,what they have accomplished and what they have endured. It was touching, funny, sweet and fantastic.

Here are somethings I learned about people;

I learned about anxiety disorders.

Abuse survival.

Jail stints.

Secret wishes.

Long lost loves.

First jobs.

Unique jobs.

Hates.

Likes.

Lovers.

Every single person was fascinating, and that night we joined together to reaffirm that. Now, today, I will hit 22,00 tweets and we will be doing it again. We’ll start this evening sometime, no set time (after 8, for sure) and for a couple of hours encourage people to post six things about themselves. I’ll start off to get me up to 22,000 tweets and from there get the ball rolling. Join in when we are doing it or anytime in the next couple of hours.

Think of six things. Mark the tweet with the #sixthings hashtag or link to this post…..

And remember, you’re interesting, let me pull up a chair and listen to you talk about you. It is perfectly acceptable. And wonderful.
