Dear Blog mates,

6 Sep

I had to share this today, without which I don’t think i could have slept in ease tonight. Just a few weeks ago, I was not even aware of this little world called ‘WordPress’ and its ways. I was so skeptical to even start a blog here. With so many experienced bloggers here, it kind of intimidated a complete novice like me. I was not even sure if I should be penning down anything at all. My confidence was menacingly threatening to desert me. I felt like a hapless junior on the first day of my college, with a lot of seniors around and trust me, it was scary! But somehow, i managed to pick up bits of my shattered courage and did start a blog. I wrote a few articles on topics that were very close to my heart, on topics I felt I had to share with all the people i knew or otherwise. I did, and it took a lot of courage on my part to hit that dreadful ‘Publish’ button.

To my pleasant surprise, no sooner did I publish them, I received many kind words of appreciation and encouragement. I was so touched and overcome with emotions to learn that there are so many lovely, wonderful & encouraging people out here. There is so much warmth in here, that I did not feel like an alien anymore. Like how parents guide, encourage & motivate their children, i too was guided by my new wonderful blog mates who have now become my friends. I now feel so comfortable & at home here, thanks to all you lovely people out there.  I would like to sincerely thank all my blogger friends for taking & making me a part of your WordPress  family.

To my lovely blog mates turned friends turned family,

I owe you all this- Thank you so much for encouraging, motivating me and for ensuring that the fire of creativity inside me never extinguishes. I won’t let you down.

Love, hugs and best wishes to you all.

Teju  ♥ ♥

    Glad you could converse yourself with the typical confusing and sophisticated feature…i too tried my bit with Word press but after a dismal attempt…i swayed away from it…!!!

      Hey Anjan, i had initially found WordPress quite complex too, but I’ve now come to realize that it’s really user friendly, trust me & i highly recommend it as against its counterpart. Maybe, you should explore it once again… 🙂

    you’ve been one of my number one blogger friends out there. I am always happy when I see you have liked my post. In the begining I thought many times who am I kidding, nobody wants to see what I have to offer. I kept on and I may not get all these wonderful awards, but I didn’t come here for awards ,I just wanted to share my photographs. Thank you, Everyone

      Dear Jim, you are my favorite blogger friend too! I really love your blog & the pictures you got to offer as they always have a meaning to it, which are sometimes very obvious, sometimes subtle & sometimes totally concealed. I always like stopping by your blog 🙂
