Dear readers,
Clanmother has been nominated for the celebrated The Addictive Blog Award by Maarit-Johanna and her addictive blog, History of the Ancient World. I am honoured to accept the nomination because, in my view, our blogging community is about being “addicted” to bringing our world together. We may be separated by oceans, continents and mountains, but in “blogging” miles, the distance is small, even irrelevant. Conversely, our world of thought and connection is ever-increasing. Henry David Thoreau understood this concept years before the advent of our amazing technology:
“Nothing makes the earth seem so spacious as to have friends at a distance; they make the latitudes and longitudes.”
