''Life's like a play;
it's not the length
but the excellence of
the acting that matters''
Seneca
Roman philosopher, mid-1st century AD
Today it is my great pleasure to present my Awards Ceremony, already in progress;)
First, second and now ''The Excellent Blog'' taking home third place:) Kate from La Ville Est Belle gave me this award for being an Excellent Blog the other day! Thank you so much for the kind honor of nominating my work for the Excellent Blog Award, Kate! Truly I am honored.
I shall express my feelings now. I would like to continue writing for a living. In other words, I should say that I would like to make my living doing what I love to do the most: working and writing. It is a dream and a goal for me that sometimes looks far, far away but other times looks so close that I can touch it:) I reach that goal the experience is worthwhile because I am learning so much and meeting so many wonderful people during this voyage. Therefore we all are entitled to our dreams, right?
I send you this flower,
because I want our memories that last forever:)
Don't give up on your dream because if you want it enough, it will happen.
ReplyDeleteYou have a gift, and you should pursue it.
@ Beverly: A special Thank-U for the encouragement. I appreciate it:)
ReplyDeleteHi Nihal! Thanks for having been so kind to comment on Blogtrotter while I was absent! I’m back and trying to catch up with your posts!
ReplyDeleteFirst Congratulations for the much deserved Excellence award. If there is a blog deserving awards, yours is the one!
Loved to read and see the pictures of the amazing post on the Toy Museum and Mona...
Now, don't be mean and don't tempt me with those Dessert Carnival Party recipes... ;)
Finally, I was enjoying the post on inspiration and your description of Istanbul (I think you could forget Paris, Prague, Venice, Barcelona, Italy and keep it just Istanbul...) and then came the shoes. Ladies shoes always remind me of Mrs. Imelda... and that's too much... ;))
Hope you have a great Sunday!
Gil
