Ooh, thank you Debs, whose blog is utterly fabulous by the way, for this gorgeous award.
The "Your Blog is Fabulous!" Award stands for: Integrity. Commitment to Excellence. Stubbornly Optimistic.
THE RULES:
List five current obsessions:
1. My wonderful family and friends – No explanation needed.
2. Writing – See my blog for details.
3. Injustice – Ooh, I could go on and on and on about this – but I won’t. We see injustice in every corner of the world and sometimes in our own lives. And, in truth, I try hard not to obsess about it NOW – So it’s not, in fact, current – ooh, er have I broke the rules? But the way I see it is this, if there’s a way to solve the injustice, I will do everything in my power to do so. But I’ve learnt, as I reach the grand age of 25 (Okay, okay, 30 ;-)) that sometimes you just have to let go.
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Reinhold Niebuhr
4. Bullying - See above!
5. The baggage retrieval system they’ve got at Heathrow. ;-) – Best ask Monty Python about that one!
I would like to pass the award on to the following super-duper blogs. I know some already have the award, but hey what the heck, let’s live a little!
