So, some weeks ago, I can’t believe how time has gotten away from me, Terry at terry1954 nominated me for the One Lovely Blog Award.
As I understand it, in acceptance of the One Lovely Blog Award the recipient, besides giving credit to the person who nominated them, is to share 7 things about them self, and to nominate 15 other people.
Thank you Terry, very sincerely. I don’t know you well, but I’ve visited your blog a few times, and I can tell that your Faith is very important to you. I think, perhaps, these words from my favorite inspirational booklet might make some sense to you:
Some days we feel like strangers. When our heart opens, we will realize that we belong just here.
-Buddha’s Little Instruction Book, by Jack Kornfield
You struck me immediately as a “Practice Random Acts of Kindness” kind of person. Such acts of kindness are twofold blessings, once for the happiness they bring the giver, and once for the happiness they bring the recipient. I wish you joy and all good things. Thank you for thinking of me.
I have to admit however, that coming up with 15 meaningful nominations for the One Lovely Blog Award seems a bit overwhelming. I really only follow 10-20 blogs anyway, so I might as well just nominate my whole blog roll. You’d all deserve it, I wouldn’t follow you if I didn’t respect you and like what you had to say. And, of those I follow, probably only about half know I follow them. I live in a small blogosphere community. But, I’d like to believe we who are blog friends are close.
Believing that to be so, it’s also a bit difficult for me to think of seven things to share that my loyal friends and readers don’t already know about me but I’ll do my best.
- I’m a Sagittarius, but I don’t bother to read horoscopes.
- I would love more than anything to stay at home and just be a housewife. I think, if I’m allowed to say so, that I make a damned good one. Life, however, seems to feel I have another destiny.
- My favorite summer activity is sitting on the beach searching for agates and beach glass.
- I have three regrets in life, and sadly they’re big ones.
- My favorite movie of all time is Joe vs the Volcano.
- If I could live anywhere in the whole wide world I’d only need to move an hour and a half from my current house, but if I could find a job, I’d happily stay exactly where I am for the rest of my life.
- If I could go back in time just for one weekend, I’d love to spend the weekend with Jane Austen.
Happy Monday to all!
