accolades
i was truly amazed and privileged to read an article written about none other than me in the forbes website. it was a major lift-me-up and in many respects i feel i don't deserve it, yet i'm not complaining. what i particularly liked is the way it commented on my blog as a nearly completed work rather than concentrating on only one specific post or one post at a time. it meant a lot to me, larry husten and for your more than kind words, i thank you.
for those new to this blog, it is also a nice way to link to some of the old, forgotten posts that are quite often a lot better than the current material. for established readers, the links are still refreshing in that one can rediscover old unpolished gems.
also, it in itself is a well written piece (with fancy capitals and everything!!)
for those who would like to read it, the link is here.
Well-deserved, my friend. Well-deserved.
ReplyDeleteNice article! Thanks for sharing. One of my favorite posts of yours wasn't mentioned though - the one where you described the sense of hospital community that arose naturally from having a tea room where people at all stages of their training could come. Does anyone have a link to that one?
ReplyDeleteVery nice profile of the blog, and by association, of you, on the Forbes article.
ReplyDeletesermelyThanks so much, Bongi. I agree with anonymous: any dedicated reader could produce their own list of terrific posts. I had a very hard time winnowing down my list.
ReplyDeleteEvery bit deserved.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you receiving this recognition! Well-deserved.
