Sometimes I get my notepad to write something for you...I write for hours, only to read over what I have written and it doesn't make sense, habitually I start writing about something else but sometimes this too doesn't yield much. Days go by and there are no new posts and I start to feel terrible for neglecting you. Thing is, I don't want to write something I personally wouldn't enjoy reading, so when I write something and I am not having a good time with it, I don't post it. I have countless drafts stashed away because I find them 'dry' and missing my heart (if that makes sense), and then I have some drafts I would like to share but sometimes I think to self  'oh no! you wouldn't dare...that is too personal' so I hold back. The internet is a tricky thing, once something is published even deletion won't completely get rid of it. They are always retrievable if  you have a Zuckerberg on stand-by. 
I am not an impersonal person...When I care to know, you can't escape my gentle probing ways.  So I try to do the same with my blog, I want it to be personal to an understandable level. I share bits of me through my music, my aspirations, my thoughts and my beliefs but I do not know about you. Here I was seated in Starbucks sipping on my water pondering away and I had a 'light bulb' moment. I want to thank at least one person or two people who take their time to read my blog. I long to know each one of you personally although that is almost impossible.
Here's the plan, I want to gift one of you, (still brainstorming what exactly but I know the perfect give-away will come to me) my way of expressing gratitude (it could be anyone). The requirements are: if you have an inspiring story or done/doing something inspiring for someone else, tell me your story in an email. I promise to remain unbiased, and with your permission, I will share your story here on my blog, we can keep it anonymous or not. The gift will be posted or delivered in person depending on the distance, all these details shall be discussed at a later time. I would have loved to gift everyone of you but I am no Oprah but rest assured there's no good deed that goes unnoticed. :-)
I cannot wait to know more about you and good luck.
Ps. Please be honest about your stories.

    1. team lovers of free things...yay... hmm I started off with blog spot because it is my more serious forum and tumblr is because I am a lover of things and people have very colourful things to post there. So colourful tumblr and deeper things on blog spot..:-) I cannot wait to read your inspiring story.xxx
