Thank you so much Jyoti for remembering me and am sure you will forgive me for the delayed response ππ
It has been such a pleasure knowing you Jyoti. You are so young (almost my grand daughters ageπ) and yet filled with love and joy. And you engage so beautifully with all.
I always look forward to seeing your posts and would encourage all to do so at :
About the Blogger Recognition Award
The Blogger Recognition Award is an award given in recognition of all the hard work that goes into creating a blog. It is a way for bloggers to support, motivate and promote other bloggers who have clearly put in huge amounts of time and effort, and produced valuable content.
Bloggers are very talented people β they work hard, they promote, market, advertise, run a busy site.
They organise all kinds of activities, they encourage, motivate, interact, engage and are community orientated. It matters not if they are shy and reticent or loud and personable β each actively progressive blogger is the same β they all work hard and passionately with their blogs, they put the hours in to deliver to their audience each day a welcoming location to read, absorb, learn and have fun.
To escape the hustle bustles of city life, or the begrudgeries of boredom β they entice readers to peruse their pages to look for entertainment.
That is what the BRA celebrates.
Award Rules

β’ Thank the blogger(s) who nominated you, and provide a link to their blog.

How my blog started
When I returned from my trip around the world earlier this year, I wanted to write a book on my experiences. But my son told me : Pa your book hasn’t get done for the past 15 years π Better start blogging and then we can look at the bookπ
And there is a close friend, Seema, she had been telling me for a long time to share the pics I take with a larger audience, by blogging, Instagram etc.
Am thankful to both of them for starting me on this journey. Am not only writing but have made such awesome friends and have found wonderful reading material and learning more about life ππ
