For good long time, I’ve had a bloggy friend named Jessica the Rock Chick. She has expanded my horizons of many things like catbooting and BonJovi trivia. Today she gave me a blogger award. Proof that she’s a little nutty ;) But seriously though, she’s a mother, a writer, and true friend to many bloggers out there. I count myself blessed to be among her bloggy friends. Her blog is entitled “Life is Rantastic.” Do visit her awesome words over there
What is this award she gave me? I’ll tell you.
It is the Proximidade Award, which translated from Portuguese means nearness or proximity. Here’s the explanation:
“Being a recipient of this award affirms that this blog invests and believes in the Proximity – nearness in space, time and relationships. I hereby nominate the following blogs to receive this great award and a further way for me to reiterate that these blogs are exceedingly charming, blogging friends who aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers!
Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this clever-written text into the body of their award. “I am grateful for an opportunity to award this to a few bloggers who are very special people. I include the following bloggers who may have received this award in the past but I’m sure won’t mind receiving it again.”
Here’s my eight Proximidade Blogger Award winners, they are all amazing and worth reading. Please pay them a visit:
- Beyond the Rhetoric
- Confident Writing
- Dragon Blogger
- Life is RANTastic!
- change therapy
- Growing Happiness
- It Might be Love
- Catatonic Kid
Please share these and other great ones with the internet. Every person can make a difference in spreading the good stuff.
