Excellent choice @Rihana. Whenever, I think of march-past, I think of discipline. March away from the past, stay always in the present and build a bright future is how one should lead a life. I feel even to have self-esteem, we need discipline. If we don't know how to love ourselves, how can we express love to others?
Congratulations to @Laks09 for nominating the best in her very first month as a nominator. Until last month, I enjoyed reading her responses but now I get to see her nominations as well.
@beautifullife30 - Congratulations! This is a well deserved win. All of us need to learn to prioritize ourselves from time to time. You’ve articulated the steps perfectly from your experiences. Your post is a timely reminder.
Thank you sir! It’s such a pleasure being able to participate with you and Viji Aunty in the nomination committee.
@Rihana - congratulations on a job fabulously done! It seemed like you’re already a pro at responding to every nomination and picking a winner. It couldn’t have been easy but you made it seem so to me. It’s akin to how I felt when I saw Sunisa Lee on the uneven bars. Congrats once again!
WOW...thanks all! Its a beautiful day here and all your wishes and replies made it all the more memorable. When i wrote the post, i was in the same boat as OP. The post was as much for me as it was for her. After all the responses, i now believe, it is actually for every person who has been making sacrifices without a care or thought for themselves. Thanks to all the nominators and the judges choosing it! and @Rihana .. i am blown away by your introduction!
To judge is finding pearl after numerous deep dives into bottom of ocean To sort out from huge nominations is monumental effort To get to the bottom of stories requires tremendous backgrounds To focus at task demands Himalayan effort Yet you did all this and your maiden announcement in the month of India's independence for the best of the outgoing month is superb and deserves high sounding applause and standing ovation. I also salute the nominators from the panel and those outside of nomination committee as well. God Bless us All.
