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.
I certainly think you deserve a prize for your blog.
ReplyDeleteI stick with Louie!
ReplyDeleteI just started posting for Music Monday and so happy to find your post.
ReplyDeleteI love Abba and haven't heard this song, I love it and all of your other choices as well.
Interesting collection of songs.
ReplyDeleteWow! 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.
