Blogging

To My Recent Follows…

Welcome, Bloggers, Networking, WordPress, Blog, Community, Appreciation

I would like to appreciate all my recent follows of the past few weeks. Forgive my tardiness for failing to do this earlier and for not stopping by to visit and say hello.

I am not that ill-mannered and can only offer the excuse of the deluge of emails, blog posts and duties that besiege me each day. That’s one hazard of blogging and running two blogs, but I am loving it nonetheless.

Now, a proper thank you to you and you and you. In this space, my vision is to keep things positive and warm, to engage and inspire others whenever possible and to build an interactive positive-minded community that hopefully transcends the online blogging community into our various lives.

This community is such a supportive one and in my own little way, I seek ways to create more cohesion in our midst and appreciate those around me. Asides from my regular posts, I have a series ‘featured posts’ where I share weekly posts of others and ‘author zone’ where I spotlight the published work of others.

I also offer guest posts, bloggers interview and partnership opportunities, as well as a recurrent monthly blog party for the purpose of networking and growing. I’ll also mention that I offer a few services that might interest you and you can always shoot me an email through the contact page.

Once again, you are welcome to my house in bloglandia. I look forward to furthering interactions with you and extending an early invitation to the month’s end blog party coming up on Sat/Sun 29/30th of July.

My regards,

Jacqueline

Tag along a poem

The Bats From Hell and the headless man with an axe

descended on him with bloodcurdling screeches.

He tried to run, but his feet could barely move

terrified and rooted to the spot, he waited for the axe to fall

Do You Remember?

I’m sure you remember Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller.’ That music scared the heck out of me. What about you?

‘PLEASE KEEP SENDING IN THE LINKS.’ 

Today’s featured blogs posts are:

Ex-pat This poem from Rick makes me smile because it hits home. As one who has lived the life of an ex-pat here and there in the past decade, I sometimes find myself adrift in my cup, pensive with thoughts of nostalgia of home across the ocean in Africa and home across the ocean in North America.

Hurricane Matthew Haiku The gust of the wind and ripping sounds captured in Pamela’s short video and haiku tells you how of the beautiful  side of nature even when it’s furious and frightening.

You are who you are? Who are you in all these things? A thought provoking poem.

Experience as an Untrained Teacher Have you ever taught before or imagined teaching? What was your experience as a rookie teacher?

Do step in and show some love.

‘PLEASE KEEP SENDING IN THE LINKS.’ 

Today’s featured blogs posts are:

Monday scenery: Great photos that make you want to wander and see things 🙂

Aerial antics: A hilarious recount on an aerial yoga attempt. I would like to give this a try, that’s if the hammock or string or whatever does not collapse under my hefty portion 😉

Small steps up mountains: All you need each day are baby steps and before you know it, you are going full throttle.

TMI: How much information is too much or too much opinion? Is the deluge of digital information robbing us of the good old habits of credible research work?

What is it? Can you figure this out? Let me know if you know what the answer is.
