Quintet of Radiance Award :)

I logged on to my Facebook account yesterday to find a message from Stephen. (http://www.thesolitarywriter.com/) He has nominated me for the Quintet of Radiance Award. Thank you Ste! It is highly appreciated. How thoughtful of you!  If you haven’t read his blog yet, do! They’re full of energy and it’s like you’re listening to a friend speak.

Blogging has always been a nice experience for me. To share what you ponder, raise your concern over what bothers you and get appreciation in return.  I feel happy, honored & privileged to have been nominated. I am highly delighted to accept it.

I also take this opportunity to thank my readers for their support! I am grateful to my friends and fellow bloggers for your visits, kind comments. I feel super encouraged. It is always so nice to receive positive feedback from readers.

When I first began this blog last June and started sharing my poetry, stories and views, insecurity weighed heavily on my mind.  I was thrilled to have had even one reader, one like and one comment.  Then, over time, things grew…

I hope you can “feel” my sincerity when I “say” I’m very, very thankful.  And just to clarify, it’s not the recognition, but the opportunity to “touch” others, “move” others, emotionally and make others “feel” when they read ~  Thank you so much for “listening.”

Quintet of Radiance award is an award given to recognize good blogs and their fabulous bloggers. Quintet of Radiance Award are really 5 awards rolled in one: The Awesome Blog Content Award, Most Influential Blogger Award, Sunshine Award, Inner Peace Award, and The Versatile Blogger Award.

To the people I have nominated:

Congratulations!

The reason behind me nominating you is, I enjoy reading your blog and you deserve a lot more subscribers. Keep writing.

Thanks again to everyone who thinks my blog has something to offer. It means the world to me. I love to write, but sometimes I wonder if I’m actually going anywhere with this, so having this award as an affirmation really does help me get through self-doubts. :)

While you pass this award, pass on a smile to someone who needs it too.
