Blog of the Year Award 1 star jpegdoncharisma-org-the-inventive-blogger-award (1)

There are all sorts of Christmas gifts. Getting awards as a blogger is indeed a special one because it gives me the opportunity to share it with all the wonderful people from 100 countries (as at the time of doing this post) across the world who have taken out time and resources to visit, read, comment, follow, reblog and make useful criticisms of my blog/posts. I really appreciate you all 🙂 Thus, I am dedicating my gifts/awards, The Inventive Blogger Award and The Blog Of The year 2013 Award to you all. Thanks a lot for the inspiration and encouragement 🙂

Thus, my friend DON CHARISMA, has, indeed, given me my most appreciated Christmas gifts. Thanks a lot Don. I really appreciate the gifts and wonderful/thoughtful gesture 🙂

As part of the instructions for accepting The Inventive Blogger Award, I am supposed to state 5 things I enjoy about blogging. Here I go….

1. It has provided me a platform to do what I have wanted to do for long, and that is to write for a large audience, in this case, using an e-magazine

2. My blog/posts have been a source of blessing (in countless ways) to its visitors.

3. People now know me in 100 countries (as at the time of doing this post) 🙂 This is quite interesting to 🙂 It further portrays the power of the internet.

4. I have made a lot of friends and come across a lot of people from diverse background, one of which is a gentleman, DON CHARISMA, who have deemed me fit to be awarded this Christmas gifts of THE INVENTIVE BLOGGER AWARD and THE BLOG OF THE YEAR 2013 AWARD 🙂

5. For me, writing over 150 posts (so far) has been a very good mental exercise. You can only understand by joining us in blogging 🙂

  1. Congratulations Michael on landing these awards. Thank you also for nominating my blog.

    You are right – there is so much to be gained by blogging – mental/writing exercises is so very important, I reckon – as important as keeping one’s body in shape.

    All good wishes for 2014,
    Eric

  2. Thanks a lot dear sister for your ever-inspiring words. I really appreciate it. God-given people like you have continued to give me good reasons to continue doing what I am doing on WordPress. It becomes natural for me to remember people like you whenever an award comes my way 🙂 Thanks a lot 🙂
    I hope you and your family had a good time on Xmas day? 🙂 I wish you all a blissful 2014 🙂 Do have a splendid day.

  3. You’re welcome my friend. Even though you have stopped receiving awards, I know you will not reject my sincere appreciation for supporting my blog 🙂 Thanks for making my efforts on WordPress to be worth the resources. Best wishes from me to you and your family in 2014:)
