Yesterday I got the idea for My Picks For 2012′s Most Influential Blogs after visiting the blog of  The Blissful Adventurer. He has a post on his amazing blog entitled “The Most Influential Blogs of 2012“. And I thought what a wonderful idea.

 

I posted my version of 2012′s Most Influential Blogs and it was chock full of the blogs I find inspirational and informative. Wouldn’t you know it, because I’m 175 years old and starting to get senile, I missed a few of my favorite bloggers and their blogs.

 

So here we are at 2012′s Most Influential Blogs Part Deux!!

 

The Rules:

There are no rules for this award except you MUST pay it forward, and that means, sometime in the next 6 months, you “should” chose the blogs you deem worthy of your label of The Most Influential Blog Of 2012, to you.

That’s it. Only rule.

 

Now For MY Most Influential Blogs Of 2012:

Each blog chosen by me, has in some small or huge way influenced me in some way, be it by inspiration or by information.

I do sincerely hope I didn’t forget anyone this time, if I did forget somebody……I apologize ahead of time.
 
 
 

Since this is NOT an award, there is no guilt associated with accepting. Just enjoy.

 

I wish all the blogs and their owners & families a wonderfully joyous Kwanzaa, Christmas & Hanukkah & a healthy, happy & prosperous New Year.

Blog of the Year Award banner 600

 

 

 

I want to thank ivonprefontaine for awarding me a fifth Blog Of The Year Award. ivonprefontaine blog,
Teacher as Transformer, is an amazing place to visit and learn.  I strongly suggest you stop by and visit his creative take on education.

 

I know I will miss some bloggers who deserve this award and I know others do not accept awards. To the first group, I apologize and, to the second group, I am deeply grateful for your contributions.

 

The ‘rules’ for this award are simple:

  1. Select another blog or other blogs who deserve the ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award;
  2. Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you have chosen – there’s no minimum or maximum number of blogs required – and ‘present’ them with their award;
  3. Include a link back to this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award at the Thought Palette and provide these ‘rules’ in your post (please don’t alter the rules or the badges!)
  4. Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have given them this award and share the ‘rules’ with them
  5. You can now also join our Facebook group – click ‘like’ on this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award Facebook group and then you can share your blog with an even wider audience
  6. As a winner of the award – please add a link back to the blog that presented you with the award – and then proudly display the award on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars…

 

There are stars to collect! Yes, there are stars to collect!

 

Unlike other awards which you can only add to your blog once – this award is different!

 

When you begin you will receive the 1 star award, and every time you are given the award by another blog, you can add another star! There are total of 6 stars to collect.

 

You can check out your favourite blogs, and even if they have already been given the award by someone else, you can still award them again and help them to reach the maximum 6 stars!

 

For more information check FAQ on The Thought Palette

 

The blogs I follow are truly an eclectic group, but they share one thing: they each bring joy into my life on a daily basis. Here are the bloggers and their sites I would like to nominate:

Writing Between the Lines

United Against The War On Women: The Overseas Group

Posted on March 5, 2012 by Jueseppi B.

By Jueseppi B.

 

 

 

The time has come to stop using our mouths and start using our brains. Put up or shut up time is here. On April Twenty Eight, of this year, a national march/rally will be held in your state. You should be present. You should be doing exactly what this young woman is doing……….

 

 

 

 

Silent But Deadly.

There is a National Event Page, and you can join that by clicking here. There is a National United Against The War On Women Group you can join by clicking here. And you can join the Overseas group for United Against The War On Women by clicking here. Each state has it’s own Facebook Group Page and I will list them all towards the end of this article.

You might ask why is it necessary to have an overseas group, since this is an American political issue? I’d be glad to answer that question. It starts with one state starting a rouge agenda to circumvent the United States Constitution, or the U.S. Bill Of Rights, then another state see’s how easy it was to enact some laws that usurp power and rights from American citizens, and they repeat the actions of that first state. Then it spreads. Not just here in America, but to other countries that see how power can be taken from the people and handed over to a few greedy millionaires.

 

Remember Nazi Germany, and how easily that hatred and power spread all over the globe? Here in America, we have a few, all male, mostly caucasian (except for Allen West, who imagines himself to be caucasian) politicians who want to strip American women of their Constitutional right to choose abortion, birth control and contraception. If it can happen here in America…..it can happen anywhere.

 

I have had conversations with women who told me, and I quote, “I’m not into politics” or “I’m not concerned about voting because it won’t make a difference, and besides, all politicians are crooked”. I won’t turn this into a rant against ignorance, but I will say this: If you, as a woman, don’t think this issue of contraception, birth control and abortion rights, or the bigger concern of health care coverage, is important, or that it will effect you…stay home, don’t get involved, sit on your butt and continue to wear blinders. Then when the time comes that you need to use either or all of the things listed above, and you are denied, then do NOT complain.

 

This issue is about all of us who live on this planet, not just women, but men as well. Every man has a woman in his life who is effected by this issue, and if this effect the women in a man’s life, it effect him. Whether you happen to be overseas working, living, going to school or traveling on April 28th, 2012….stop by your local rally/march in your area and let your voice be heard.
