What did I learn in the last 7 days!

Today is the 7th and the last day of the Write Tribe Festival of Words. I have been participating in this festival since the last six days. Today I am listing 7 points about my feelings about these last six days.

1. Happiness is a state of mind when you like something and it  just happens. The article that announced that a seven days festival of words will be held from 1st to 7th September and that the theme of the festival would be 7. This cheered  me and without any fear or a second thought I filled the form.

2.My first entry was seven days of the week. I was quite apprehensive how it will be taken by others. My fears proved to be baseless. Right from day one I got good feed backs which was encouraging.

3. I found a good spirit of camaraderie  in other  participants.Veterans in the world of blogging  came forward to read my posts and gave encouraging comments.I  mention the names of Corinne, Shilpa Garg, Rachna, Vidya Sury, C Suresh and others.

4. Without knowing them personally I  felt a bonding with Suzy,
Susan, Ruchira...

5. I have learnt that if we take up a task there should be sufficient will power to achieve the goal.

6. The comments from fellow bloggers always act as a booster.

7. The soul stirring encouragements that I have received has acted as ambrosia which has helped me to resolve that I will participate in future such festivals and challenges.

  5. Good to touch base with you again Usha, after that brief encounter on Rachna's blog :) And I felt like I was my DAD :):) I am Suresh or C. Suresh if you prefer :) Unless it was some other Chandrasekaran you meant, of course :)
