Dear readers,
Today, we posted our 3000th article!
3000 articles, spanning some 170 topics, written by over 150 authors from around the world.
Quite a milestone, says I.
I just wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation to all of those who have made this possible.
To our writers
Thank you for gracing our pages with your words. You have inspired many people, provided them with food for thought, made them laugh and made them cry. You have shared your insights and your experiences. You have opened your hearts and in so doing, you have opened the hearts and minds of people around the world. Have a peek: With the exception of a few places in central Africa, your words are read across the globe.

Life As A Human Readership
To the Life As A Human team
Thank you for your commitment to our vision and for all of the work you have done to get us to this point. Many people believe we have a corporate office where we all hang our hats when in fact, you are all located in different parts of the world. Some believe that we are a well funded entity, when in fact we are a sweat equity shop. That you continue to work towards our goals is a testament to your character and your integrity. I am humbled and privileged to work with you and to call you friends.
To our readers
Thank you for your continued support. Thank you for all of the comments you have left. Thank you for sharing us with your friends and through social media. Thank you for the times you have written me with encouraging words, ideas and the typos you spotted…usually mine! Without you, we would be a very lonely website!
In closing, I would like to ask you all a favor. Recently, we started our Making A Difference series. These are interviews with amazing people that give their time, their treasure, and their energy to make a difference in lives that otherwise might continue in hardship or be lost altogether. Please…share these stories. By doing so, you will be making a difference by encouraging those wonderful people and by bringing light onto the amazing work they are doing.
And so, we move on towards 4000.
Again, thank you all so much!
Cheers,
Gil
Congratulations on the longevity and consistently wonderful articles.
Hi Rey,

Congratulations! I am looking forward to the next 3,000. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks Susan!
I hope that all is well for you and that you have been using your lens a lot!

Gil
An amazing achievement for LAAH, Gil, and one for which the credit goes primarily to you, for your passion, your dedication to making a contribution to our world, and your perseverance in a difficult and competitive journalistic market.
I love writing and editing for this magazine and I love seeing new articles appear every day, from skilled and imaginative writers. Looking forward to thousands more articles (and I hope to write one or two of them).
Congratulations.
Thanks Ross!
Like I said to Tess, we are a great team. NO WAY I could do this without all of you. 🙂
Have a great Sunday!
Cheers,
Gil
Congratulations Gil! It’s been a gift and an honour to write and edit some of those 3,000 articles. None of this would be possible without your passion and vision, Gil. Thank you for bringing LAAH to us all.
Here’s to the next 3,000. I hope I’m there for them all.
Cheers,
Tess
Thanks Tess 🙂
That means a lot to me! We’re a great team and the pleasure is all mine 🙂
And yes yes … I shall now go raise a glass to 3000 more with Tess on board!!
Have a great evening!
Cheers,
Gil … AKA … Gileeeeeeee
