Nefertiti at The Inspired Self has kindly honored Storied Mind with the Lemonade Award. I want to thank her, especially since this was quite a surprise. We have discovered one another’s blogs just recently, and I look forward to reading regularly her beautiful insights about life with clear inner guidance.
The rules of this award are as follows:
- Put the logo on your blog or post.
- Nominate at least 10 blogs which show great Attitude and/or Gratitude!
- Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.
- Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog.
- Share the love and link to this post and to the person from whom you received your award.
I’m glad to be able to recognize many blogs that have become a part of my life in this special community. Here is a remarkable group of souls, as I hear and sense them through their honest and moving words. And in keeping with the spirit of this award they show great attitude, sometimes just because that’s who they are and love to share it with the world, sometimes because they’re gutsy enough to try to keep their heads above troubled waters and share too the vast effort that takes.

Storied Mind has had the special honor of receiving the Arte Y Pico award from both Melinda at Melindaville and Clinically Clueless. It’s wonderful to receive this recognition from such amazing and truly fearless bloggers. As many others have said, the community of mental health bloggers has given me so much more, and more generously, than I could have imagined when I started this project last year. Melinda and Clueless hold nothing back in sharing the often searing experiences that have shaped their lives and that they have bravely faced and overcome. I thank them both from my heart.
The ‘Arte Y Pico Award’ is given to five blogs at a time based on their creativity, design, interest of content, and contribution to the blogging community, regardless of language. To learn more about this award, click here. Part of the honor of receiving it is passing along the award to other blogs that honestly seek out the truth of their authors’ experience.
Like many in this position, I’ve taken a while to look again at the moving and powerful blogs that have meant so much to me. It’s more than hard to pick just five from among so many to recognize with this award.
Here are the remarkable bloggers I have selected – in no special order. Each of them has made an enormous contribution to our understanding.
