It is an award conceded to blogs that discuss different matters, not specialized, so to say.<br /><br />The award establishes only two conditions:<br />1- You have to tell seven things about yourself, so that readers get to know you better.<br />2- You have to pass the award to another versatile blogger.<br /><br />I use the comments to tell you because there seems to be no contact email in your blog. For the same reason, if you accept the award, please grab the logo from my blog at http://www.zerebria.com/2011/05/27/the-versatile-blogger-award-zerebria/<br /><br />In any case, thank you for your blog; I hope everything in your life goes great.<br /><br />best<br /><br />Nacho JordiNacho Jordihttp://www.zerebria.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205157387819958650.post-9806573778006508402011-05-30T21:02:47.853+05:302011-05-30T21:02:47.853+05:30When I first began blogging, it was just an attemp...When I first began blogging, it was just an attempt to let others read my thoughts and get their feedback and suggestions. But what came out of the blogging world has been so much more. Love pours in and you feel so comfortable opening up to share your wit and woes with people whom you hardly know and the relationship becomes deeper with time. I absolutely endorse what you are saying! People who don't blog or see it as an unnecessary activity have no idea what they are missing in their life.Swapna Raghu Sanandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10167474469892964199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205157387819958650.post-4747756319284078932011-05-30T20:07:58.625+05:302011-05-30T20:07:58.625+05:30A couple of months ago someone introduced me to a ...A couple of months ago someone introduced me to a blogger from England ie Hilary (her blog Positive Letters).

We got to motivate others, inspire others and and definitely theirs to us. Truly, blogging has become my second home already... as for my blog - oh, my li'l poetry room where i shared most of my feelings and emotions to the world. And i am very thankful to have found this place and to have found each of you good buddies... good mentors... my blogger friends. Thanks for bein' one of them Susan.

My first experience of this feeling of well being was when Alapana whom I am yet to meet sent me flowers for my birthday. That touched my heart. I have people say "Oh you havent met this person and yet you all talk as if you have known each other for years?"

I enjoy blogging and I haven't been doing it nearly as long as many of you have. It's only been 5 weeks tomorrow for me. Yes, it's true. I am a virgin.....blogger, lol. My reasons for blogging may be different than yours or similar. I was spiritually moved to start writing again.

They noticed I have foreigners commenting on my status updates and photos, and they recognized the names from my blog posts. (I bet my bottom...um dollar, you're one of 'em, Sus!)<br /><br />One said we seem very familiar, almost like them whom I've known for more than half my life!<br /><br />When I started blogging, I just thought it was just an anonymous world out there. I'm glad to have been wrong. I've met truly wonderful people like you, Sus, who have become my friends (how strange that may be to non-bloggers) through my blog. And if only for that, it made blogging more than worth it for me. :)AJhttp://ajpoliquit.wordpress.com/about/kreativ-blogger-award/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205157387819958650.post-87106966646607248312011-05-21T06:16:27.211+05:302011-05-21T06:16:27.211+05:30I couldn't agree on how non-blogging friends f...I couldn't agree on how non-blogging friends feel about blogging friends..!<br /><br />When read what somebody writes.. eventually you get to know about the person.I sometimes catch myself saying..
