Welcome to OBV! I very much appreciate your endorsement. What's funny is that the same time you took notice of my blog, I also realized that one of my submission to Carnival of Improving Life (http://improvedlife.ca/content/twentieth-edition-carnival-improving-life) was awarded Top Post Award. So it was a doubly special week -- one that goes on my tipping point list. Community is obviously a very important aspect of any blog site, but I did start this site with a clear intention to build one. I believed that by broadcasting well-articulated observations and opinions, I would be able to attract like-minded people, and together we can spread the message of empowerment, healing and hope. Well -- now that sounds like an informarcial, but really, I am enjoying what I'm doing, and it's nice to know that it shows. Looking forward to getting to to know you -- ari Hi Barbara!

You've done a great job with your blog thus far. I had lots of fun checking out your posts, trying to find a few to quote. It was tough as they're all good. I'm happy you're enjoying your reign as NBOTW. In the process my wish is for you to build your community while visiting others and making new friends. Thank you so much for your kind words. I truly appreciate them.

It's funny that a few people mentioned that. I wonder what makes a blog look like it's new? Just general disorganization/lack of tolerable design? I myself would assume that a blog is new if it's using the default WordPress theme.... I do have to say, I'm glad I didn't that much recognition earlier -- as my site design was messier and clattery. When Bamboo told me that I may become NBOTW I hurriedly tweaked my site layout. Phew! ari Robin,
