Just returned from church and feeling light 🙂
My singular thanks to Ray, blogging as novice journal, for passing the Candle Lighter Award on 12 January 2012. Though it is the second, I am completely thrilled and humbled. As all my blogger friends know, I simply love the sentiments behind this award > to be a Candle.
The Candle Lighter Award is an award for a post or blog that is positive and brings light into the world. The Candle Lighter Award belongs to those who believe, who always survive the day and who never stop dreaming, who do not quit but keep trying.
There are no rules. If you wish to, simply accept it and you are done! You are also free to decline or ignore it. Recipients can pass it on to as many nominees as they wish and as often as they wish. This does not diminish the weight attached to this award. On the contrary, I reckon it places a huge but welcomed burden on the person passing on the award.
With joyful heart, I recognise the following bloggers (not in any order of merit) as Candles and pass them this Candle Lighter Award:
We shall not go into why the above bloggers are worthy as Candles. I have always maintained that we all look into the same mirror but each takes away a different image. Do visit these wonderful bloggers, get to know them and maybe, like me, you too will take away something lovely.
All good wishes to recipients and well-wishers, Eric

Well deserved, Eric, for a wonderful blog.
Thank you Barb 🙂
Congratulations, Dolly.
I have yet to visit a blogger who consistently makes the effort to produce/present such feasts for the eyes.
Enjoy, Eric

Hello Eva,
Hope you’ve had a great weekend.
Thank you and congratulations to you too. Do take your time and don’t let any of this build any stress.
All good wishes,
Eric
Congratualtions! You, Steph, and Aslan just stay in the spotlight! 🙂 …but very well deserved.
I just told Aslan I can tell by his blog and yours, I have been offline for a few days and have a lot of reading to catch up on. All kind of good things happened while I was away.
Dear Christine,
Welcome back and with such lovely comments too:-)
Hope to read some new posts of yours.
All good wishes,
Eric 🙂
Congratulations, Eric…well deserved!
Thank you Francina,
All good wishes,
Eric
I appreciate reading your blog…well deserved!
You’re welcome Kris and thank you, Eric
You are indeed a bright light and lovely as I shall keep saying Eric…well done buddy Jane x
Thank you my dear, dear Jane. Lots of hugz buddy, Eric
Eric, I really am so touched & honored. By now, you have an idea of how much my blog means to me, and I know you value yours as well. I am so flattered. I want to stay up & do this right now, but want to be sure I take the time to compile the right list for this award, so it may take me a few days. But, truly, i can’t say thanks enough. Coming from someone as inspiring & really talented as you are, i’m greatly honored. lol. Maybe by the time i make the post, i can think of a more creative word than ‘honored’ or ‘flattered’, both sound incredibly cliche, for how sincerely I wish to thank you. May God bless you & all those you love and pray for. ~unwritten truth
ps. you deserve this award more than any other site i’ve been to. Truly
You are very welcome and thank you for your kind words. There is no need to rush…take your time.
Regarding the clichés (honoured & flattered) no worries, I understand. But I shall give you a hint (more than a hint, really), if you feel right…call me ‘friend’. That would be nice thanks.
All good wishes, Eric
I have now made a text document containing these words: “Congratulations on your award dear Eric”, so I can copy and paste them here. Saves some time as i do not have to type them every time. With all the awards you are collecting it comes in very handy. 😀
But you deserved it, lovely Eric (as Jane calls you). Congratulations!!!!!
Love, kiss and a big hug
Steph (who likes you) xx
🙂 Hide it well, bury it deep, but your true heart I see
Every once in a while, a mischievous streak breaks free 🙂
Thank you and Luv & Hugz,
Eric
This is very sweet Eric to nominate me in this award, I’m so pleased 🙂 Thanks a lot and congratulations to you… More power to your blog and God bless 🙂
Dolly
Thank you and you are very welcome Dolly.
If you recall in one my comments, I did give you a wink 🙂
Enjoy and God bless us all,
Eric
