This May, I will have been blogging for two years…yes, my Second Blogiversary is at hand! I have really enjoyed blogging the last two years and consider the people I have met to be one of my greatest joys.
I have enjoyed reading your blogs, hearing your heart on a myriad of matters and getting to know your joys and struggles. I have been enriched by my association with all of you. In total, I have connected with people from over sixty countries and by far, I am the richer for it.
In honor of each and every one of you, I am creating the Bloggers International Friendship Award. This Award is to be given to one person whom you have connected with from another country who has enriched your life and you truly consider this person a friend. Mine will be awarded annually…you may award yours as you please!
BLOGGERS INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP AWARD
My pick this year is Kavita and her Sunshiny SA blog. Kavita is a true social justice warrior and I have greatly benefited from knowing her. She shares much about life in South Africa, including its history, geography, wildlife, cities, and the social issues that people in her culture are dealing with. Today, I salute you Kavita and present you with this Bloggers International Friendship Award. May you continue to blog for years to come!
First, congratulations 🎉 second, what a wonderful idea. I love it ❤️
