With a firm belief that inspiration is contaious I have created a Bliss Day After Day addition to the sidebar on the riht . This daily link will lead you to news, events, discoveries, delihts, and pursuits that I have discovered or have been made aware of. This is not a site of the day it is simply somethin that I wish to draw your attention to. It is also a place where I can hihliht some sites that we can all visit to show kindness If you have a moment please consider a moment of Bliss Day After Day.
A Bliss Request:
I am considerin creatin a weekly post celebratin A Moment of Bliss. This Monday mornin post would offer a place to list a moment of bliss or wonder that you experienced in the past week. Althouh it will be open for comments I would like to make it more than a simple comment post. My idea is to have a few of my blo friends e-mail me a short fifty word or less bliss moment and I will include these in an extend post with a link. This link can lead other Moment of Bliss participants to your site where they can visit or comment or possibly read more of your blissful contribution. If you are interested in writin a bliss post on your own site you could simply email me the teaser which I would include to lead others to your site.
Please consider celebratin the moments of bliss in your life and sharin the memory of these moments with all of us. If you are interested in participatin please leave a comment below or email me.
The first blissful moment can be found in the extended post.
A Blissful Moment:
My moment of bliss was very small. Since I was working from home
today, I took my daughter into school later than usual . . . .
Please visit Amy here to continue reading her blissful moment.
Amy's moment is linked here because she has the honour of being the
first person to send me a moment of bliss. All other moments with links
will be offered on Monday. Please try to email me before Sunday
evening. Also remember you do not have to have it posted on your site,
I am willing to post it on mine with a link to your site.
Hi Michele, maybe it is me, but I could not get to California Hammonds on your link, that you posted, I got to him from your side bar. xoxo

I absolutely don't think you have indulged in too much saccharine. I think it is a fabulous idea. So many of us often forget those blissful moments when we are too busy focusing on the non-blissful. *(*hugs*)*

Greg Hammond has made me feel as if Cheryl was my sister, and even though he really doesn't know who I am, his writing has made me feel like a part of his family. I'm usually too choked up or dumbfounded to comment on his site but I read it regularly and today, I left a comment because today it really matters.

Went to California Hammonds, and sure I'll participate and Sev, is there anything left above Godess? Perhaps.. "THE" works?

Michele: A belated thanks for the post and referral of folks. We had many visitors here from MA, and we did have a successful event. We raised over $2600, twice as much as we had hoped to, and all but two of my co-sponsors have already fulfilled their pledges to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Thank you to you and your readers for your support. We had quite a few "non-blog regulars," who were very impressed by the show of support from our community. Our next Commentathon is scheduled for 4/1/05. Thanks.
