Many of you may not know me well, and may not know where I live in Second Life. Those that do know just how crazy I am about all of you, and the fantastic friendship we have all developed there. So for those who don’t but who wish to be a part of a warm and friendly group of crazy people, let me explain.
I live in an estate called Bishara Resorts. An estate is a group of regions or islands, and in our case our estate or ‘Resort’ consists of 6 islands, two residential/commercial, one commercial/environmental and three for surf/windsurf/sail only. They are Bishara Island, the oldest and the heart of the resort, Bahati and Mandhari Islands our residential and commercial islands, and Majini Island, one of the most popular and famous surfing beaches in Second Life. We have two lighter weight or ‘void’ islands for surfing/windsurfing/kitesurfing and they are Pepo Island or the Island of winds, and Wimbi Island or the Island of waves.
Its one thing to have a beautiful environment, but somehow many of those would be completely useless if not filled with people. Well, I have to say that, though we are not an adult site or a gambling site or a camping site, we have that fantastic crowd of regulars that make living there so worthwhile! No amount of building, landscaping or scripting can make up for people, and in Bishara Resorts we have the people!
This posting is a tribute to those people, who make living in the resort so worthwhile, who are always there 24/7. I cannot remember a day that I have logged in this past year that someone in the group did not pop up to say hello on my arrival. There is something about that that makes everything we went through and are going through worthwhile. If you miss the same in your place of living, whether RL or SL, pop over to the resort islands. I can promise you that, even without all the activities and beauty of the place, the people will make you come back again and again!
