The Candle Lighter Award
I would like to thank Kate of Believe Anyway for giving me the Candle Lighter Award. When you check this link you will find an explanation of the award: http://believeanyway.wordpress.com/2011/12/18/creation-of-new-blog-award-the-candle-lighter-award/.
It is such an honor to receive the Candle Lighter Award because it is meant for blogs that are positive and optimistic. And Believe Anyway is a perfect example of this, so please have a look and be inspired. Thanks Kate!
There is no obligation to do anything but accept this award, but I can pass it along to other blogs at any time. So right now I would like to give the Candle Lighter Award to breathelighter for having a blog that is upbeat and positive. Congratulations!
The HUG Award
Thank you, Francine of Francine in Retirement for giving me the HUG (Hope Unites Globally) Award! I also have an explanation of this award using the following link: http://ahopefortoday.com/2012/01/14/hope-unites-globally-hug-award-guidelines/.
I want to thank Francine for this award, and I find her blog Francine in Retirement thought-provoking and very enjoyable to read. Why don’t you visit her blog and see for yourself?
The HUG award is very special because it’s meant to keep hope alive in the world. The recipient is to pass this award on to at least one other person, so I would like to nominate Alyson from the Thought Palette and Algarve Blog. You’ll be challenged, encouraged and entertained by both of these blogs. Congratulations Alyson!
And once again, thank you Kate and Francine. I am so honored to receive these awards!
