I, thankfully accept the award. Sushree, herself is a dedicated blogger.  She writes poems as well as prose with equanimity. She is Doctor by profession, but writing is her mission, her craze and her first love.  I love reading her blogs. Thanks once again Sushree.

All the 11 friends,recommended above, deserve the award on merit. 

I am writing ten things about myself...
1. I am a deeply spiritual person. I believe in the sanctity of all religions.
2. I am reserved by nature.
3. I was born, as per the saying 'with a silver spoon in my mouth'. Life has been kind to me.I was well placed in my  profession and commanded great respect.
4. My husband is a South Indian and I am from North. We are in the 55th year of  our happy and contented married life.
5. Our children are very affectionate and loving.
6. We are living a very happy and contended retired life. 
7. I can spend long hours in front of my lap top. Writing is in my blood.
8. If I don't know or understand some thing I don't feel shy to ask for help. (At this age I find it difficult to manage somethings)
9. God has given me every thing except good health. I have had many surgeries,some serious, but I don't crib about it. 
10. I have some good friends, who  are always there for me.
 I am grateful to God   for all His mercies.

 According to rules of Sunshine Award :

A special note for Shilpa Garg.

Shilpa, as you all know, is a versatile blogger. Every body in the blogging world is aware of her writing skills and  presentation of her blogs . In spite of  her accomplishment, proficiency and excellence in this field, she is very humble and helpful. Whatever I have learnt and achieved today is because of her co operation and helpful nature. She deserves much more. I humbly request her to accept this small offer.
