An Award and An Acceptance Speech…
Ahem Ahem!
There is an Award…
And there is an Acceptance Speech…
“Ladies and gentlemen… Hello.
Well, I am at a loss for words…
Seeing all my 3 entries, making it to the Final Nominations in Avant Garde Bloggies Awards made my many days.
Then, one of my post making it to the Final 6 was an ‘Aha experience’.
And, finding my post among winners in the Best 55-er Post category, today…. well, I am speechless!
Being nominated was an incredible honor, particularly when there were about 300 participants and 700 + nominations from fellow bloggers.
I feel humble, but at the same time incredibly proud too.
With so many wonderful, amazingly creative entries to choose from, the judges must have had a unbelievably tough task. Kudos to the Alchemist Poonam and her team.
Behind this award, there are lots of friends, and, I’d like to thank everyone who voted for me. Thank you for your support.

Congratulating you will be too much of routine.
You deserved it.
I am not surprised as much as I don’t get surprised when Lata Mangeshkar gets an award.
Keep it up and all the best.
Incidentally, congratulations.
