“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” Buddha
One hundred and twenty one days ago, throngs of bloggers joined the Daily Post Challenge eager to commit to write daily/weekly/ as often as possible. It was an exciting beginning and most of us were determined to barrel our way through the challenge and see if we could find enough to say, share, and read. Along the way, we made friends, lost a few blogger friends, had days that glowed, and days that made us glower. Through it all, the best lesson has been that the collective joy has not been diminished by our shared effort to support each other, to write when/what we deem best, or to take a rest when needed. Our candles, which were lit from the first WordPress Daily Post candle of encouragement, continue to glow and grow and I say hurry to all for adding to my blogging happiness.
“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.” Epictetus
Happiness: The Candle Never Decreases By Being Shared… myriad ornate candlesAccording to a recent post by Jackie on the accomplishments to date, we have completed 33% of the challenge and we now have 243 days till January 1, 2012. I am thrilled that the journey, while challenging, has opened the door for me to meet tons of WP bloggers and make some long lasting friends… I want to thank all of you individually and maybe one day we will have a gathering. For now, we can say hello and continue to light each others cnaldes with our blog support via, likes, comments and more…
“True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.” Antoine de Saint-Exupery
