an award

thanks to Enola at http://enola-survivor.blogspot.com/ Here are the rules for this one -The LOVE YA award:“These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in 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 cleverly-written text into the body of their award."

for those who missed it this is what Enola wrote about us " JIP - JIP has been through a lot this past year. She is a true testament to overcoming adversity. Reading her blog is a lesson on perseverance. Not only has she overcome lots of personal issues, but she has done it all while being a wonderful mother to her large family.

So here goes

MiKael from http://mycloudsandmystorms.blogspot.com/, MiKael has become a good mate of ours from across the way, her blog often chews the fat off less commonly talked about subjects of abuse and religious degradation. She helps us personally breathe a sigh of relief as we read and know we arent alone.

Kahless from http://kahlessnoise.blogspot.com/ allows us insight into her world we watch as she journeys in her life and relationships and in turn we journey with her. Sometimes she raises subjects with such passion that you cant help but be passionate with her.

Lily from http://psychosphere.blogspot.com/ gives us a chance to see inside her world in so many ways. She is so honest its sometimes refreshing she doesnt hold anything back if she is affected by something and she allows us into the rawness of both her life as a person and life as bi polar. She often writes as we have thought and we never cease to applaud her for it.

April from http://thriverstoolbox.blogspot.com/ often we visit april because she is so clever at enveloping stories of herself into lessons she has learnt and then goes from there to questions for the readers. The journey she takes us on by doing this is a journey of self discovery and growth. Sometimes we have spent days pondering one of Aprils blogs thus reminding ourselves on how much we can still learn.

Wanda from http://wandaswings.blogspot.com/ writes very little but what she writes is often raw and honest. She allows us to ride her ups and downs in shortly yet powerfully worded formats and one day we hope Wanda will write so much more as she is a very gifted writer.

Anonymous drifter from http://unknowndiarist.blogspot.com/ writes sometimes many times a day by doing so we feel often we have been in lengthy conversations with her and know her so well yet as she writes more we realise how much we are getting to know her. She gives us glimpses of her life as they happen as she struggles with depression and ill health and her own fear,she brings us into her world and helps us interact with her with ease.

lyn from http://etherealhighway.blogspot.com/ takes us into the journey of raw pain from years of abuse. She writes as we have often thought but not verbalised. Her style of writing allows us to feel our own feelings because she writes often what we have had similar experiences in but leaves no room for misunderstanding. Her rawness in her writing has also helped us in feeling things we often block.

Just be real http://justbereal77.blogspot.com/ is a new blogger for us. But each blog is thought provoking and interesting. they have a knack of incorporating their life with their faith and intermingling the two so its easy to read. We are finding reading both thought provoking and sometimes close to our heart in our own struggle in what we believe or would think we would like to
