Breaking the Recommended Read Rules
I absolutely CANNOT take tests that have yes or no answers. I am a Gemini. There are too many ways to look at things in life. Life is not black and white/ yes and no. And I read all kinds of blogs for all kinds of reasons. Even though I work daily toward peace, I don't read that many blogs that have to do with peace and/or social justice. Sooo... I can't just award two blogs with the Recommended Read award. At least I can't do that AND keep any semblance of sanity.
So, I have categories (and if you think that I have to follow the rules just because someone says so, you're on the wrong blog!). Okay. Okay. I'll keep it to two categories. And the only way that the recipients will find out they won is if they read about it here (which won't happen) or you tell them. I am just handing out these awards so that YOU will check out their worthy sites.
In a solemn mood of decorum and honor, I pass the coveted Recommended Read award that was bestowed upon me by Robert of Left of Centrist to:
In the category of Peace Awards -
And in the category of Inspiration and fun -

Pissed Off Patricia at Morning Martini
because I never miss a day of lurking on her site and I am extremely jealous of all of the comments that she receives. Besides that, she's funny and thought-provoking.And Fred the Cat is the best.
Mary at Get Your Own
because her son is in Iraq, and I'm a mom and can only imagine what it must be like. I like the way she finds balance in her life and shares the ride with us.And in the category of Inspiration and fun -
Lymphopo of As the Tumor Turns
With wit, wisdom, and courage, she shares her healing journey. And she may be the most exotic decorator I have never met.
Brainhell of, well, Brainhell
A man with ALS who shares his frustrations, sometimes painful experiences, touching notes to his kids, and his weird dreams.

See how you are! I bet you loved listening to The Crystals sing "He's a Rebel".
But seriously, since you violated the rules, I'm going to have to take you off my top ten blogs list and put you in my top five!
There! Now see if you break any more rules! ;)
Actually, I had to look up the Crystals' "He's a Rebel" song. Good song! I could've sung that to my parents when I dated a guy in high school whose name they wouldn't even mention.
Remember: Punishment only makes one figure out better ways to get around the rules!
You are too kind Carol for Peace. I am honored to be mentioned by you. Really. Thank you.
My pleasure!
I have a friend whose son served in Iraq and Afghanistan. I told her about your blog, and I am hoping that she will connect with you.
Only those who have gone through it know what it is like.
Congratulations Carol!
Thanks Chuck! And congratulations to YOU!
