Gratitude

How do I express my gratitude to all of the lovely people I have met through my blog? I simply did not have a clue when I started blogging in July that this experience was going to change my life.
I did not expect to receive the support, kind words and even gifts from all over the world! Patricia from Zen Crafting sent me the most beautiful scarf she made and loads of wonderful finds! Carin from Already There sent me the most adorable little suitcase. Marsha from Tumble Fish Studios sent my one of her beautiful collages and amazing ephemera. Karen Otto and Farmer Julie, Jessie Smith Larson, Vivienne Strauss, Catherine at Red Shoes, Saucy, Cha Cha , Lani, PJ, Katie, Kristen, all have gone above and beyond. The kind and generous comments have been just as gratifying and surprising. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for all of your kindness. My heart truly skips a beat when I see some one has been by to visit my little blog. Thank you all!!!

I can relate! The friendships, the kindness of other bloggers is the best part of all of this! I wanted to show my art, and get to talk, didn't know I'd get all the other with it! Have a great day! ~PJ

I think it's called karma! You put such wonderful, inspiring stuff out there for us to enjoy, Linda, and it just feels so right for your grateful readers to want to give something in return.

I really enjoy seeing your posts everyday. They are very inspiring. And I love finding other blogsites through your links and others. When its a good thing "spread the word." Have a great day!

Hi Linda,

I enjoyed browsing through your blog. You continue to have a great eye and the talent to pull things together. Now that the magazine has closed, I'll have more time to do fun things like visiting your blog. Best to Gar

Thank you all once again for your lovely comments!
Barbara, I can't tell you how sad I am about M.E.H.C., you were putting out the finest, most creative magazine I have ever read! There is going to be a huge void in the magazine world! It was nice of you to drop by.

Obviously, kind and gracious lady, you have touched a lot of people. You will always be extra special to me. I'm still thinking of sending the swan boat . . .

Isn't it great to meet people that "get" the same things you do?

Saucy said...

Mrs. G is right! Blogging is all about the connections. I have enjoyed it so much... you can't imagine if you aren't a blogger, right? Am I right?

They say you reap what you sow, and you are such a kind and generous soul! Of course you'd be surrounded by admirers. What fun to be found on the internet!
