Emblem of the Helping Hand

The Blog world is a funny, scary, interesting fascinating place where I have been truly entertained, educated, saddened and astounded. I love being part of it and find joy in reading what’s happening in peoples lives around the world.

I want to express my admiration and gratitude to a few friends today by passing on the Emblem of the Helping Hand given to me by the amazing CurvyGurl who is like my blog sista and I really enjoy reading her stuff.

Receiving the Emblem in recognition for your mentoring, support, and encouragement to a fellow blogger is no small fete! It is evidence that you have gone well beyond the call of duty by your continued efforts to "leave the pile higher than you found it"! It is further evidence that your blog(s)has been identified as the epitome of excellence and is certainly admired.

Receiving the Emblem from a seasoned blogger is a testimony to you that you're on the right track! That your voice is being heard. And there are those out here in the blogsphere that recognize your potential even if you don't. Keep up the good work, and remember to "Pay it Forward".

3. Link the Emblem to this post: Helping Hand: Much Obliged and Paying it Forward so that others will know it origin and impetus.
