The Tao of Me

One of the questions posed during Bloggiesta was, “What are your goals for blogging?” Well, I never really thought about it. So I spent a lot of time over the weekend reflecting on my blog and how it’s evolved over the past 3-½ years. The Blogger Years Back in August 2007 I was getting ready [...]

I have been wanting to do some maintenance on some of my blog pages, but have been procrastinating for months. So when I read a blog post earlier this week by Runner Sami about a virtual blogging event called “Bloggiesta“, I immediately signed up to participate!

What a fun weekend of reconnecting with old friends, and meeting new ones! Saturday I got to spend Saturday with my dear friend Medha.
