My very first award - the Sunshine Blog Award - thanks to Emily @ My Inspired Life with Fibromyalgia! This award is given to "bloggers who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogosphere".
Here are the rules:
1. If you are nominated, you must blog a post linking back to the person/blog that nominated you.
2. You must answer some questions, nominate ten fellow bloggers and link their blogs to the post!
If you do this, you get the award! You can use the image above to either put on your post or on your blog itself!
3. You should comment on your nominees' blogs to let them know you've nominated them.
Here are my questions:
1. Who is your favourite philosopher?
Actually, I don't really have a favourite per se, or many that I even read about. But one of my favourite wise-men is a man called C.S.Lewis. He wrote many books including the famous Narnia series, a lot of books that have shaped my life and thinking.
2. What is your favourite number?
My favourite number is 3 - I believe all good things come in three (well, actually not really, I just really like the number). Plus three reasons why always looked good in essays at school! :)
3. What is your favourite animal?
At the moment, elephants. I just came back from Sri Lanka where I visited the Elephant Orphanage, one of my most favourite places in the whole world - check out these cuties!
4. What are your Facebook and Twitter urls?
Facebook: Faith&Fibromyalgia; MyHandsStillWork
Twitter: @DharshiSpeaks
5. What is your favourite time of the day?
The first six seconds after my alarm rings; For six seconds, while I am still waking to the world, for six seconds, there is no pain; for six seconds, I am a normal person & Fibro is just a word; for six seconds, I can jump out of bed and do whatever I want; for six seconds, I can be the me I want to be. For six seconds, then it all comes rushing back .
6. What was your favourite vacation?
My favourite vacation in the whole world so far was when I visited Switzerland. It's such a beautiful land, full of nature (which I love). Mostly, it's a place where you can go up a mountain & enjoy some freezing cold weather, get sick of it and within 15 minutes come down & run across some meadows under the warm sunshine.. Absolutely perfect! :)
7. What is your favourite physical activity?
Physical eh? Well, Fibro pretty much stops any physical activity possible, but I do love dancing! When I'm alone in my room, and especially when I'm feeling down, I play my favourite tunes & dance away (regretting it ten minutes later, when Fibro delivers the pain) .. I'm the strange person you see on the train, with their headphones in their ears, drifting off in their world and tapping their feet and dancing..
8. What is your favourite non-alcoholic drink?
This one's easy... tea of course. I love tea & I drink it like a newborn drinks milk. I love all forms of tea, normal, herbal, uncaffeinated etc. My favourite ones are: Dilmah Extra Strong (when I need a gentle wake me up), Rooibos & Chammomile (when I need a chillax) and trying as many new varieties of teas as I can find!
9. What is your favourite flower?
My favourite flowers are daisies. For a similar reason as Emily, I love the simplistic nature of daisies. Yes they are weeds & they do grow freely in all sorts of random places. But to me, they're sunny and bright even when they are growing out of difficult places.
One of my mates at university told me if I had a boyfriend, I would be the cheapest date ever, because the guy could just break into someone else's backyard and rip off a few of their daisy weeds and I'd be thrilled! Lol :)
10. What is your passion?
My passion is to a person that is caring and always there for anyone I call friend. I want to paint the world in beauty. I want to make this world brighter even when I cannot muster a smile.
