The Very Inspiring Blogger Award

What a surprise and an honor for me to receive an award as a blogger recently.Thank you, Superphoenix for nominating me for the The Very Inspiring Blogger Award. It makes me happy just to realize that I am able to inspire others although I believe that I am inspired every day by reading other blogs as well. Superphoenix review books, posts awesome photos, is extremely creative in her drawings and is always very positive in her writings, truly an inspiration. You will definitely want to check out her blog.

The rules of receiving this award involve the following:

~Thank the person who nominated you and link back to them in your post.

~Nominate 7 bloggers you admire

~Share 7 things about yourself

~Leave a comment on each of the blogs letting them know they’ve been nominated.

I would like to nominate the following bloggers for this award as I have found inspiration from reading their blogs.

Landon James – A very young blogger with wisdom and inspiration beyond his years.

Composerinthe garden – Awesome photos of a lovely garden and a beautiful way of writing about her love of her garden and her music.

Italiagal – Another young blogger who loves all things Italian with a passion!

Walking with a smacked Pentax – Amazing photos and escapades with a sense of humor from places in Yorkshire and northern England.

A New Beginning – A fresh look at achieving goals and overcoming obstacles no matter what they may be. Very inspiring.

Two Black Dogs – An awesome blog about travel with great photos and sometimes through the perspective a dog or two.

A Modern Christian Woman – An inspirational blog about family, food and spirituality written in a very inspiring way.

Now as to seven things about myself:

1. I didn’t learn how to say no until I was 40 years old.

2. I have always had the philosophy of taking advantage of opportunities now because you never know what lies ahead.

3. I don’t require much sleep.

4. I am addicted to the computer.

5. I feel fortunate to be able to say that I had a happy childhood.

6. I will never get tired of traveling to faraway places.

7. I only recently realized that I am creative.

PS When I was a lot younger I would never have even thought of writing or sharing anything about myself, and now I really enjoy it especially when others find it “inspirational.” Thank you again for this honor, superphoenix!
