Shauny Award for Blogging Excellence – A Celebration of Cerebration

I have been nominated for a Shauny Award by two bloggers whose blogs and writing I admire for many reasons, the main one being that they share themselves with courage, authenticity, humour, and style, and their bold act of sharing their perception of life is truly inspiring.

They are purveyors of delectable mind food.

They are…

The Infinite Abyss(es) | Life in Syracuse New York: An Insider Looking Deeper. Creating Canyons From Nooks.

The nomination is here, please check out the other nominees – The Shauny Award.

and

Madeline Scribes

The nomination is here, please check out the other nominees – Winning the Shauny Award!!

Thank you both very much for the nomination, I am… I was going to say deeply humbled, but I don’t think jumping up and down with excitement and hugging both of you in my imagination is considered the behaviour of a deeply humbled person.

When you get nominated for a Shauny Award, you also get a visit from Shauny, like this:

The rules of this award are:

Show Humanity

Show Love

Be Yourself

Don’t Be Others

Don’t Gossip

and Share This Award with 10 others.

I think I’ll just skip to the last rule, and let you decide if I happen to accidentally follow the other rules in what I share of myself on my blog.

My nominees are all bloggers whose posts make me cerebrate, and allow me to explore worlds of mind, feeling and experience beyond my own. I am going to link you to the blog and a post of theirs in my nominations:

• Let Me Reach with Kim Saeed – Why Self-Love is the Most Important Love (this post mentions my blog, so I may be being a bit ego-centric by linking to it, but I loved the way she expanded on some thoughts I shared, for me it shows how the blogging community works well together, spreading ideas and sharing how they inspire us, letting them flow and change as we each add more to them. Ideas have a life of their own fueled by our own lives).

Thank you, to all of you, for sharing your lives and views and perspectives with me.
