Awards, quotes and Juice
Apr. 23rd, 2011 09:11 amTHANK YOU, thank you to those who voted for my vids at DPTM Viewers Choice Awards *mega smish* It's made me *beam* like a loon this morning.
I am going to post them here because it's a nice record for me AND nice to look back on if I'm ever having a blue day. Which I did last night. Then I read a quote
wendy posted in her journal that made things better again:
"We can do no great things. Only small things with great love."
I was reminded yesterday the difference a kind word, a show of interest, a compliment, even a smile can make to someone else's life. It's going to be my goal to do these things more regularly. (I was reminded because when you get the opposite of these it can make you feel rotten).
I also like the quote
redteekal posted in her journal. I think of it often when I start feeling down about getting older.
"Do not regret growing older. It's a privilege denied to many"
INDEED.
Now. Speaking of voting and doing nice things, as you probably know (because I have raved about her before here)
juice817 is one of my absolute favourite podficcers. Rarely a day goes by that she isn't whispering in my ear.
She's entered an audio book competition and needs as many votes as possible to become a finalist. When I last looked she was only about 19 votes from the top 20. You can vote once a day. You do have to register but it takes only a minute to do so. GO VOTE! It would be awesome to see her win this.
Oh and...YAY! SHOW IS ON SOON \o/ \o/... I am BUSTING to see this one. Catch ya on the flip side. *smish*

And yep, I so agree, a simple smile or thank you goes such a long way, both in real life and here in our virtual worlds - I'm always kind of sad when I find so much spite and vitriol thrown around when it's really not necessary.

Yeah. On a fandom front it always baffles me because this is our happy place. I mean, I know we all have our favourites, pairings, likes and dislikes but at the end of the day it really doesn't matter in the larger scheme of things.
But in real life..? I think I experienced my first understanding of what a "passive / aggressive" person is. To be around someone who is only interested in making everybody else's life miserable can't be a good way to be. He got to me but luckily I have much stronger, more positive influences around me so I was able to brush it off.
Ack.. sorry. Unloaded a bit there. /o\
Thanks for popping by hun and for your kind words. <33
