Today I've got a guest post at Jack Lewis Baillot's blog. Jack, in her amazing sweetness, has a book blog party for her book, Haphazardly Implausible, in which she has offered a spot on her blog to other authors . . .instead of asking us to host her. I'm hoping she'll give me the opportunity to return the favor early next year - if you haven't met her yet, she's a gem.
Another bright gem of a blog friend, Tara Tyler, awarded me with an amazing new blog banner . . .that I have yet to put up. But it's awesome, and it looks like this:
I'll either figure out that tiny technicality of putting it up today or another day. It's a result of winning the 300 follower giveaway that she had with Cassie Mae. I meant to have a huge announcement in BIG LETTERS, but this will have to do:
TARA TYLER AND CASSIE MAE ARE AWESOME!!!
Every one of us is unique, amazing, truly one of a kind.
I believe that each of us as the opportunity to shine, to light up dark circumstances, to brighten a regular day, to bring warmth to each occasion.
Each of you that has visited here on my blog, commented, been a blog buddy, given helpful advice, invited me to participate in a blogfest (or several), has been a light in my life.
Thank you.
I believe that God created each of us for the unique way that we call all fill a singular purpose - to shine the light of hope and love in other people's lives.
Keep Shining.
Together we can light up the world.
Merry Christmas!!!
BTW, I will be taking a sleigh ride around the blogsphere this week, stopping by for a jingle here and there, but this is my last "real" post of the year. I'll be back January 2nd for IWSG, which I have the honor of co-hosting with the renowned Ninja Captain Alex J. Cavanaugh and Jamie of Mithril Wisdom.
Remember to check out Jack Lewis Baillot's blog today.
Very true. We each have the opportunity to shine. And I believe we also have the obligation to shine as well. We have far too much to be thankful for to do otherwise.
ReplyDeleteJeff - I agree!
ReplyDeleteyay!!!
ReplyDelete(make sure you choose "shrink to fit" and "instead of title & description," see if that helps)
and thanks for the parting words of wisdom! merry christmas & happy new year!
Amen to the sentiments! We are all here to shine in our own way.

Jack - You're welcome! I wish the sun would come out on the beaches/water areas near here . . .or that it would just snow and not rain. Oh well. Each season has it's joys, right?
