    @Rihana,

    I second the nomination of @Mist above on @DDream's Empty Nester And Thinking Of Divorce. She has given three options to think about to OP and each one of it contains what is the purpose. What a great analytical skill she has! Hats off to her for providing such crystal clear views for someone who is going through a rough weather at home.

    Viji meri jaan, thank you so much for the bhoni that came within minutes of thread starting. There have been no less than five nominations within three days!

    The Cheap Mind Set is a well-narrated snippet by @maalti with a straightforward plot. It's interesting to see how each reader drew their own messages from it and recalled incidents from their own lives based on the responses. I was remembering my own childhood and the backyards of the houses that were all connected to one another. It always piqued my interest that aunties who came to collect flowers, counted a small jasmine flower the same as a large shoe flower towards the 108 needed.

    Why offer stolen flowers to God, who knows everything? But why? A thought-provoking narrative that lingers and replays in our minds long after we've read it. Nicely written, @maalti. Looking forward to more from you.

    The "75 Hard Challenge" thread indeed exemplifies ILites' tenacity as well as the heartwarming way in which they lift each other's spirits. @Gauri03 deserves credit for starting this thread, setting an example of sheer grit in completing the 75 days, and seeing it through its amazing ride so far.

    I'll admit that reading the updates there at times made me as nervous as a cricket fan watching their favorite player bat at 96 or 97. :blush: As the requirements have been tweaked a little, I am confident that many more will join and share their experiences. And, even those who do not participate and only read will be inspired to be more consistent with whatever habits they are attempting to form.

    Thank you @Laks09 and @Thyagarajan for nominating and seconding this post by Gauri:
    The ‘75 Hard’ Challenge

    @Rihana,

    I am here to second the nomination of @maalti of @sln Sir's Contact Vs Connect. Even though the topic is much discussed regularly, there is so much power in his words. His snippets flow so naturally towards conclusion.

    @Rihana,

    I am here to nominate @nuss' thread Volunteering For A Cause. You and I know very well that every post of hers is extraordinary and I am pleased that she takes time to share some of her thoughts with us always. Service being close to my vest, I enjoyed how she decided to volunteer to give back to the community despite her tight schedule. She is setting an example for many of us.

    @Rihana,

    Here is my nomination for the response from @1Sandhya Influence Of Friends And Their Accessories On My Kid. It is imperative to listen to our children when they communicate whatever their ages might be. This brings recriproal attitude to listen to their parents. We need to listen first before we make the children listen to us as the parents. Sandhya has empahsized this very well in this response. In fact not listening to the children might stop them from communicating which is much more dangerous for the growth of the children.
