One month and a year ago, I began this blog with the idea of spreading a bit of wisdom, joy and whatever small tidbits that were stored in my arsenal of knowledge. But like all the best things in life, this blog was created by a spontaneous burst of energy on one hot summer day. After putting a ton of thought into the name Tiger Lilly (more on that later) and trying to design the blog in a way that represented my personality, I finally took a deep breath , wrote and published my very first post! Although, it’s only been a year looking back, I feel like I have grown quite a lot in such a short amount of time and I am thrilled that I was able to share it with you guys. Post after post, I try and write articles and stuff that interest me (and hopefully you) and at first, I was super worried! I was worried about whether or not I would run out of ideas, if anyone would actually check out my blog and not to mention what I would write about. But like most things in life, blogging is a learning process and there’s no right way of creating one. At the end of the day, it all boils down to having fun and having a whole lot of passion. I suppose the main point of this post, is to remember the first day I ever put anything into the blogosphere and to congratulate you guys (my lovely readers) for being willing to take a chance on Tiger Lilly and sticking along for the ride.
When it comes to blogiversaries, it seems that most bloggers give giveaways and I don’t think that that’s really fair since not everybody can win. So by letting my inner Katniss Everdeen out, I have decided to change the rules and take matters into my own hands. While I have nothing physical to giveaway to you all, I am happy to share a few more snippets of life lessons that I love in the form of quotes (I adore quotes), a huge thank you (you guys are the bomb diggitty) and an e-hug (there’s nothing better than spreading the love)!
I have learned over the year that…
Having a few great friends, is better than having 100 so-so friends.
It’s perfectly acceptable to take a step back, take deep breath and relax!
Sometimes the best things in life are the simplest things.
Being silly and acting like a child is always a great idea!
It’s important to make the best of every situation (take matters into your own hands).
Reading a great book can be just as great as travelling.
No one know what’s best for you than you. Now, go ahead and inspire yourself!
What is your favourite quote?
Thank you so much for commenting on my blog; I'm glad you did because it led me here! Your blog is amazing! I especially love this post. My favorite quote is "If you're lucky enough to be different don't ever change." Taylor Swift says it and I find it very motivating.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! I'm looking forward to your next post.
