I'm Sentimental


Today, I feel very sentimental because I have to remove this logo from my sidebar. The site doesn't exist anymore.  It shuts down permanently starting from today.




It was in the world wide web for quite some time before I discovered it. I started blogging in August 2009 but then my blog was like a ghost town. I felt there was a need to get connected with bloggers across the globe. There were a few other sites but, personally, this one had the appeal, so I joined it in August 2010. Since a member, I got to know many nice bloggers and some have become close friends since then. I loved the site for its awesomeness, for example other members could review my blog, voted my posts or wrote messages on my page, engaged in talks and lots more. I will miss it.

Thank you so much to bloggers' team for everything they had done and good luck in their future undertaking.

I bid you Adieu bloggers.com

Don't Laugh At Me





I love this video which was uploaded by broche4m3 at youtube. There are other videos of this song but I chose this one to be shared here. The messages in it are so touching. Actually, I got to know about this song,  original version sang by Mark Wills, in one of the workshops I attended last month. The lyrics teach us a lot in what life is all about and our acceptance of  its reality.

Every time I listen to songs, I appreciate the "stories" in them which in many ways touch me so deeply.  I hope it doesn't sound lame when I say some could even make me cry. Sometimes, I could relate to some of the things mentioned in them while at other times, I empathize with the real situations going on around me. Yes, "Don't Laugh At Me" because we are born different but we are all unique!
