My First Award!
The Versatile Blogger Award
I love blogs (duh). I love how supportive bloggers are to their fellow blogophiles. I love how the nature of blog communities promotes an attitude of abundance. There is no “Us vs. Them.” There is no “I have to push everyone else down so that I can be on top.” There is a general attitude that there is plenty to go around, plenty for all of us and that the better we all do … well, the better we all do!
I am extremely excited and humbled by this, my very first blog award. *sniff* I promised myself I wouldn’t cry *sniff*
Thank you Carrisa at Yoga Untwisted for thinking of me as a Versatile Blogger. Your positivity and enthusiasm for life is infectious. I am incredibly honored and thrilled to have connected with you here in the wonderful world of yoga blogs, or as it is often called, the cyber-sangha. Namaste, my friend, and thank you.
The guidelines for accepting this award require the recipient to (1) thank the person who gave it to you; (2) tell 7 things about yourself; and (3) pass the award on to 05 bloggers, whom you have recently discovered and think are fantastic.
7 things, huh?
1. I compulsively collect beer bottle caps. I intend to someday re-purpose them as art or jewelry or something. For now it is just weird. I don’t do it with anything else.
2. My favorite movies are comedies and animations … least favorite, horror.
3. I check, double-check, triple-check emails before I send them. Same thing with blog posts. What might take someone 15 minutes, takes me an hour. I am working on it.
4. I am currently reading (for the first time) the Bhagavad Gita. I am taking my sweet time a savoring every bit of it. The discussion over at elephantjournal.com is helping tremendously.
5. I moved to Asheville, NC 8 years ago and right now I am falling in love with it all over again. The mountains, the people, the yoga …. oh yeah.
6. However … I miss the ocean … a LOT. I grew up in South Florida and, of course, took it for granted. Fortunately, it is not far from me, we even have a coast in North Carolina. Whew.
7. I cry often. Sappy movies, yummy hugs from my kids, yoga class … you name it. Like sweating, I find it to be very therapeutic, cleansing even.
So, without further ado … I hereby present the following bloggers, who I have recently discovered and think are absolutely FANTASTIC, with the “Most Versatile Award” (in no particular order). Y’all rock. Thanks for your continual inspiration and support.
