I have to say this to everyone in my Maui social media group, I can’t thank you enough for what you have done to help me up the road and support me when I’m feeling blue. You all have made a LARGE impact in my life (Spiritually, Mentally, and Physically). All the tips, advise, and training you have given me is much appreciated and all. I love you all and thank you so much for being a part of my life. You are family to me. I look forward to continuing hanging out with you all and getting to forge not only personal relationships with you, but professional relationships with you also. This is an appreciation blog for you. I again thank each and every single one of you for all the help and advise. I love spending time with you at the South Maui Social Media Users Group and West Maui Social Media Users Group meetings, tweet ups, impromptu meet ups, etc. MAUI SOCIAL MEDIA PEOPLE ROCK!! Much love and Aloha to you! With much respect: DJ Smook 
Smook, you are the man! I remember the 1st time you sent me a message on Twitter. It was a simple “Hello, how are you?” I was new to the whole thing and very caught off guard. “Who is this guy, and why does he want to know what I’m doing?” Now I understand better what social media is, and your friendly intro makes so much sense now.
You are a great guy and offer us all another reason to spend time online. Mahalo brotha!
Lovely post. We should ALL take the time to appreciate one another more.
