Music Monday - Songs of Thankfulness

Everyone wants to be wanted, and I am no exception.

Yesterday, I opened my browser to find I had been nominated for something called the Versatile Blogger Award. There are various reasons why I do not accept these awards, but I am always thankful that someone has thought of me.  It made me realize that, once again, I need to thank my readers.  You could have chosen any blog to read - there are millions of them out there, after all.  But you chose me, and I thank you.

On this Music Monday following Thanksgiving in the United States, a few songs about thanking and thankfulness.

"Thank You for Being A Friend" - Andrew Gold

"What a Wonderful World" - Louis Armstrong (the video is a must-watch).

Abba - "Thank You for The Music".  A lesser known song from a beloved group.



Finally, "Someone Saved My Life Tonight". Sir Elton John's song isn't, perhaps, about the kind of thankfulness I am thinking of (he's thankful he was saved from a marriage) but I love the song and the feel of the lyrics.

So, although I did not accept the prize - I thank you, Darshana, for allowing me once again to reach out to my readers and say "Thank You for Being My Reader".

Day 28 of NaBloPoMo.

  3. Wow! Thanking the readers is such a wonderful gestures. Although even I am wary of awards - not that anyone's ever nominated me - I think being in touch with the readers is more important. And Enjoying the process of writing.
