Nice to get praise, now and then.

Hey Ya’ll -
I got a very pleasant surprise when I got back from lunch – a praiseworthy email from an “ebayer” who’d purchased a Speck Macbook case from my listings on Ebay. Makes you feel really good to know somebody is pleased with your work. So, I’m sharing an excerpt below … and in doing so, want to encourage all of you readers – take a moment today and CELEBRATE something good … give you waiter a bigger tip, tell your secretary how great they are doing, encourage your staff, take your wife some flowers tonight, or ladies … well, you can probably think of some way he’d appreciate that special “thank you”. 
Here’s the email … I doubt this Ebayer would ever find my blog, and I’m not posting their userID anyway, but if by some chance you visit … “Thanks for encouraging me today!”.
Just bought the Speck cover for my MacBook after seeing that you guys had the best rating of all that sell those covers. Almost immediate communication and shipping notice came back……..I was impressed. When I saw the email address with Christian in it, I went to the web hosting site and saw your company philosophy and ‘real’ business. I’m so glad when I see Christian brothers and sisters do things right and glorify the Lord in the process.
My MacBook Pro (for which I made the purchase) is for editing Christian missionary video in the field. I’m always encourage to ‘do better’ when I see other Christians doing first class work.
Thanks! Keep up the good work.
Have a great rest of the afternoon, everyone!
Fred
