In MY opinion, the handing out of awards have always been done with a specific purpose in mind. It is to cause anybody who has been chosen good enough to be able to RECEIVE an award, to feel so incredibly proud about what they've achieved in life, that it lifts the human spirit to its highest height of individual satisfaction, thereby having such a positive effect on the recipient, that they will strive to become even BETTER than they ever were BEFORE

Here in the Internet community, those of us who have created web sites feel the exact same way about OUR awards and it is forTHIS reason that we are so very excited whenever we both give AND receive awards within the context of the Net.

Since I believe in not applying for any of my awards, the fact that my peers have seen fit to graciously bestow them upon me as the spirit moved them, attaches to them an even more PRECIOUS meaning to me. With all of that said, I would now like to publicly thank each and every one of them for lifting MY spirit to its highest height! 


YOUR AWARDS TO ME


This is my very first award so it holds a special place within my heart. 
It was
given to me by my first kindred spirit on the Internet,
my now dear and beautiful friend, (Hi Cindy! thanks so much).
Please visit
Cindy's awesome website, Friendship and Love
by clicking on the award.


  
I really do feel as if I've been kissed
by the person who gave me this award! 
You've touched MY heart too, Carol.
 Please visit Carol's website, A Kiss For 
All Seasons, by clicking on the award.

 

Oh wow I received another kiss! That's so sweet of you,
Carol to want to kiss me again. :) Once again you can visit Carol's beautiful
website, A Kiss For All Seasons,

Two deeply spiritual human beings named Hans and Thomas

experience and to view it for yourself, please click on the award.

This award has deep meaning to me for it signifies a very special honor indeed. It is my very first award presented to me since I turned my Newspage into a blog. I then went on to join several social networking sites where I met many beautiful people, such as walksfarwoman. Her wonderful blog is called Kissing the Dogwood and she puts the shmoo" in schmooze so please click on her award.




Lisa McGlaun saw fit to present me with this award and I am moved to tears at the fact that she saw something within me in order to do so. Her site is called LifePrints - Good News For a More Compassionate World and she is indeed one of the most compassionate souls that you will ever meet on the Internet.  Click on her award - you will not soon forget her site.
