Monday musings!

You discover a blog… go awwwwwwwww reading post after post. Then write a heartfelt comment… a longish one at that. Wait for the comment to be approved and to appear on the blog! Wait over… the comment appears; but mystery of mysteries… there’s no reply to the said comment! Not even an acknowledgement of sorts ๐Ÿ˜ฆ This, when there is a reply to all the comments before and after the said comment. This … is whatย stupefiesย me!!

And yes.. this has happened to me more than once! I totally fail to understand why!! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ I dont think i’m unreasonable in expecting a reply. Am I? If so, please someone enlighten me! And.. though i hop over to read their blogs once in a while, i do not leave a comment… even when the post is too good or too touching. May not be the right thing to do ๐Ÿ˜ฆ But sigh! some things do put me off terribly… at times ๐Ÿ˜•

But thankfully, this is justย minusculeย in comparison to all the support and friendship that i have received in this blog world. Seesh!! Then, what am i doing dwelling on the trivial stuff? Not me… not done… not at all! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

So here i go… and cheer myself up ๐Ÿ™‚ Presenting to me… ย 2 lovely blog awards! The blogger buddy award from Sweet Swaram ๐Ÿ™‚ … yay! glad to be your buddy Swaru!!

Thanks Swaram ๐Ÿ™‚

And Beautiful blogger award from the lovely Swati of MyAmusingMind!! thanks a ton Swati ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks Swati ๐Ÿ™‚

And in true blogger spirit, spreading the cheer to these beautiful people who enrich my life with their tales and creations!

* Shankari of Naradtales

* Momo’s ma of Mehek – the fragrance in our lives

* Trishna of My Sunshine

* Shilpa of Smile…it costs you nothing ๐Ÿ™‚

* My sis 1 who hasย recentlyย startedย commenting here! She doesnt write… just reads my blog… encourages me… and gives me some fodder for Adi posts ๐Ÿ™‚ So..she is a blogger too ๐Ÿ˜‰ wat say?

So, its three cheers to blogging and yay to all the bloggers who spread the love and cheer ๐Ÿ™‚

P.S: I hope Swaram and Swati wont want to whack me for such a late response to their lovely gesture ๐Ÿ˜‰

      And i admire you for this very fact… you make it a point to reply to all the comments… which is not very easy given that you get so many comments on each post!

  4. Oh wow! What a post to wake up to ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks so much Priya!!!

    I am totally with you on the not commenting bit. I bloghopped for close to 3 years before I started writing my blog. When I started bloghopping initially, I would comment like crazy on an post(I still do..but that’s another story ๐Ÿ™‚ and wait like the Pavlonian dog for a response from the author of the post. Sometimes I would get a response and I would be hooked onto that blog and sometimes there would be no response. I do still go and read once in a while, but there is no enthu left to comment there!

  5. I guess people who have more than 100 comments for each post find it difficult to reply to each. but yes, if I’m new to the blog, I feel a bit upset if my presence isn’t acknowledged. I usually lurk after that too ๐Ÿ˜€
