oNe year, 100 posts, 8662 visitors ~ Happy b'day to my bLoG ! :)

It’s time for a double celebration! Today, ‘My corner of the world’ celebrates her 1st birthday. And, a little extra celebration since it’s my 100^th BLOG POST! Yay !! This is definitely some kind of record for me since I have been constantly posting something or the other every week. This blog has never seen a dry period. So people, wish me and my blog!! Also, wish that I do not go all lazy anytime

I started with this post not knowing what to write and with weird thoughts like ‘Will I have someone to read?’. But, today, here I am pushing 100 posts with 8662 visitors. Every day with the best readers around me, I feel very blessed. Thanks for reading, commenting, following and emailing. I am happy to hear that I have inspired so many of you and I am delighted to have you all here. This one year journey has revealed so many things. Besides the fact that I can “write”, blogging has also helped me realize so many things about myself.

(i) I have something to write: I’ve realized that I can write about anything that happens in my life. Enough said.

(ii) Someone somewhere is listening to me: Initially, I wrote in isolation. Only a handful of people knew about this blog. If you dig into the archives you can find many posts with zero comments. YES! ZERO. COMMENTS. And, then at one point when I decided to go public, people discovered my blog too. With the number of subscribers and with the number  of comments today, I believe that someone somewhere is listening to me!

(iii) I love my life: ‘My corner of the world‘ has helped me capture every joy, every thought, every moment in my life. I am loving this experience. Jotting down all those happy/sad/awesome moments everyday is so much fun!

(iv) My rewards and recognition in the blogosphere: 

1. My post : wHy we MarrIeD? was selected as one of the picks for BlogJunta Editor’s choice, May 2011.
2. BlogJunta: Winner of MAY JUNTA OF THE MONTH!
3. My Indirank: 73
