    Thank you both for the nomination. It's an honor to be nominated and I thank you both for taking the time to do so. I have promised on may occasion to the two Mods running this show that I will be showing up here on a monthly basis with a nomination and then promptly disappear. This process works because posters take the time out to come here and nominate. Thank you for doing this for me!

    @Afresh
    Dear Afresh
    Thank you for your nomination of @Laks09 's response to How To Surmount This Problem? Thanks a lot @stayblessed and @yellowmango for supporting this wonderful nomination.
    I was struck by the opening line of Laks:
    Doesn't it make a lot of sense? I remember the opening lines of a famous song of yesteryear that emphasises:
    "Love is a many splendored thing
    It's the April rose that only grows in the early Spring
    Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
    The golden crown that makes a man a king"

    If we don't love ourselves, who else is going to love us? 20 Likes for a eleven line response is enough testimony to the strength of this post.
    Sri

    @kkrish
    Dear kk
    Thanks a lot for your nomination of 'you' And 'him' by @Ammu2886 In fact, when I read the post, I myself gave a response to it straightaway. That irresistible it is! Decades ago when phones were a rarity, I never expected that a day would come when people would have so much to communicate with each other that a cellphone would be stuck to their ears all the time. This is like Northcote Parkinson's Law that Work expands to fill the time available for its completion. The need to converse with people increases with the explosive increase in the communication channels!

    Dear Sri sir
    Yes, more communication in the form of news-feeds, alerts, and forwarded messages. They are not cell phones but "smart"phones.

    Sometimes I am glad about their "smart"ness. Yesterday during our early Mother's day dinner at a restaurant we were alerted of a tornado nearby. So we stayed longer than intended, but safely.
