A Daughter's Point of View

Would you like to be highlighted or do you know someone who deserves to be BON? Contact us at ourwordsofwisdom@gmail.com and let us know.

Today's Blogger of Note is Go Ask Alice...when she's 94.

I read a lot of blogs, and many of those I like are written by caregivers. They are invaluable to me and help me gain perspective on what it means to be at this stage of life where taking care of my mother is a big part of what I do every day. However, Go Ask Alice...When She's 94 is not so much about my experience as it is about Alice's. I like sharing stories about spending time with my mother because she's rich in character, dignity, wit, and the kind of smarts you need in order to get to your ninth decade and still find things in life to enjoy.

I hope you like finding out about Alice, her sisters, her friends and her impossible romance with the man she calls Mr. Fickle.

Happy reading,

Sandy & Pam

We Know You're Out There!

In just seven months since beginning Words of Wisdom we have featured over 80 Bloggers of Note, and we couldn't be more pleased.

Most of our BONs, as they've come to be called, came to us on their own but many were nominated by others. The variety of writing styles and blog formats has been amazing. We have definitely tapped into a great reservoir of talent and been able to share it.

As of this writing we have many bloggers in line who will be featured in the upcoming weeks and months. But we want more! We want to see WOW continue to grow.

If this is your first time visiting Words of Wisdom and you're wondering what we are about, WOW is a place for bloggers who enjoy reading and writing great content to find each other.

By great content we mean blog posts that are thought-provoking and/or insightful. Blog posts that make the reader stop and think and maybe even feel compelled to "join the conversation" by leaving a well thought-out comment. These posts can be serious or humorous. They can be about any topic. But what they have in common is content. Great content.

So if you are a "blogger of substance" and would like to be featured, send us an email and tell us about your blog.

If you know a blogger who deserves to be highlighted as Blogger of Note, please email us with a link to their blog and we'll do the rest.

As always we appreciate your comments and suggestions and look forward to bringing you more "Bloggers of Note."
