Now that the Vivis are over, I just wanted to say a few things. First, I would like to congratulate the Vivi winners. You all write exceptional journals. It is okay that I did not win a Vivi Award, just being among you was a great experience.
I would like to thank Jesus. Without Him my life would be meaningless.
I want to thank you, my readers. You who read me, you who nominated me. You are such an important part of my life. You mean so much to me. And to John. You have become more than just readers, you have become a support system to us. We are forever grateful.
Thanks a lot, Krissy :)
Well, I voted for you my dear, so I'm sorry you didn't win. It's good that you feel this way about the awards though, you're right, those who won all have great journals. And for us who didn't, it was an honour just to be nominated :o)
ReplyDeleteTake care hon.

Beautiful, simply beautiful! Your Concession Speech is better than some of the Acceptance Speeches! There are no winners and losers in life. We all succeed, and you are a shining example of that. With that said, you and John are at the top echelon, above us all in eloquence and graciousness. Always have been, always will be.
ReplyDeleteBest to you both,
