A note of thanks as my blog completes a year today ~

Hello people ! It's sooner than I thought but my blog completes a year today and I am quite pleased to see it reach a milestone albeit a small one but precious nonetheless. I stepped into the world of blogging just for a lark thinking I'll be sharing some of my passion and enthusiasm on interiors and gardening besides other mundane things in life but as I entered this beautiful world, I realized there was so much more to it than just having fun. The little moments of life that make me stop and smile, look back,  reflect on things, ponder over facts, be thankful , make place for improvement, appreciating people and things started finding a mention here and I'm so glad I have a little space where I discover myself time and again. I try to fit in the moments that give me happiness and peace here in this little space that I have created so that I don't lose them in the labyrinth of life. This has become a chronicle of  the moments that I cherish and that I will always be happy to relive every time I visit my posts :)

Though I feel this is a niche I have carved mainly for myself , I am happy to see some of my family and friends visiting me here, giving me feedbacks, dispensing advice and encouragement whenever I need it. Some of them were bullied, harassed and impaled by me to do so and some did it quite willingly  ;)  My  blogger friends, who always stop by and share their thoughts and appreciation, always make my day brighter . They are my inspiration and always will be :) I must thank the people who don't know me at all but still stop by after stumbling upon my blog, reading my posts and connecting with me in some way or the other. Some of them have been regularly visiting me ever since their first stop and keep humouring me with their lovely words,some of them even mailing me with their thoughts on several things. Thank you to all of you. I love hearing from you  :)
A special thanks to all of you who thought my home and corners were worthy of being featured on your lovely blogs . You have given me ammunition and a reason good enough to strive towards keeping a better home :) Also to the lovely people who have contributed to my posts by sharing snippets of their life and  corners of their homes .....you have made this place a happier one for me by stepping in :)
Last but not the least, a big thanks to my mom who always makes sure to read my posts, always calls me to tell me so and also because though she claims to be totally net illiterate ( though she's not ) she figured out all by herself and succeeded in making an a google account just so that she could leave a comment for me here. Leaving a comment was also a Herculean task for her but she always manages to surprise me. Thanks ma ! Your presence makes all the difference in my life :)

So, cutting my long story short, thank you to each one of you and I have a whole bunch of flowers that I have collected from my archives just to show my gratitude. Hope they bring a smile to your face as well :)

Flowers say so much that words cannot say. Isn't that so ? Do keep visiting. I'm always happy to hear from you. I promise to be less lazy in the following year and instead  of making spasmodic progress will try to come around with a copious supply of happy posts for you all . Till then.....keep those dreams alive !! :)
