Thank You!!!

This is the first time since my foray into the Blog-o-sphere I am writing a personal post. Even though I like to chatter with everyone, I am bit introvert and like to keep my personal thoughts to myself.

Being a typical Virgo, I am adept at finding faults with everything and everyone, and hence, I am seething about one thing or the other. Not good, I know, but I blame this tendency of mine to my sun sign and moon sign (I am Virgo according to the both).

After entering Blog-o-sphere, I got another point to seethe and simmer over – my mile-wide losing streak.

In last 8 months, I have participated in several contests and I have managed to win none except one. When I see other bloggers winning again and again, I feel happy for them but at the same time, I feel a twinge of inadequacy. One question keeps haunting me: am I that bad a writer that I can’t make a single mark of my own?

Recently when I lost a series of writing contests, I was beyond sad. I had to sit down and revaluate my reasons for blogging and writing. Without going into details, I can only say that it was a very, very dark place wherein I wouldn’t wish to see even my worst enemy ever.

But in that pit of darkness, I found a ray of hope. That ray of hope came in the form of http://topindianblogs.com/.

According to this website, this blog, Musings Of A Confused Gal, is the top blog in the Personal category. Sweet.

 

Although it may not be much in the form of achievement for many bloggers, this is enough for me to keep on going. It’s enough for me because it symbolizes to me how my readers love to read my crazy poems, nutty stories, wacky opinions and crooked photographs.

I am not much eloquent when it comes to expressing my innermost thoughts but I do have one thing to say to my readers – thank you. Thank you for reading whatever I write, thank you for giving me feedback, and most of all, thank you for being there for me.

I would also like to apologize to certain blogger friends who expressed their faith in my writings by awarding me Liebster award. Ankita, Manpreet, Suraj Mahant, Karanvir Kour, Divya and Kusum, a huge, huge thank you. I know I am supposed to answer the questions and then pass along the award, but being a bit of introvert, I am finding it difficult to answer the questions truthfully. I hope you guys forgive me for this transgression, and continue to shower your love on me.

Oh my! Today I am being quite articulate, am I not!

Once again, a huge thanks to all my readers. I am truly grateful to you for your support.
