Today, My Glass Is Full….And Here’s Why

Thanks to Sandy Renshaw and the team over at Purple Wren who did this marvelous artwork (and did all the linking too), I present to all those who participated in the “Starbucker Meme” my long-ago promised collage of the responses.

The meme asked this question - “What’s in Your Glass“? The responses were fascinating and creative, and provided great insight into the personalities of the writers. I invite those of you who didn’t get a chance to participate to put your mouse over these “glasses within the glass” (and the words around the sides and on the bottom of the glass) and check out the bloggers behind them. Those who are part of the collage, please feel free to ask me for the HTML so you can post it on your blog too (mailto:%20terrystarbucker@gmail.com).

We are a true mosaic of a full glass - full of hope, humor, creativity, love, and fellowship. No two responses were even remotely the same. But yet, assembled together they celebrate our “collective individuality”.

(If we missed anyone, I apologize in advance - let me know and I’ll be sure to get you some link love.)

Today, as I fully absorb the generosity of these fellow bloggers in participating in this meme, my glass is full. And it sure feels good! Thank you all, and thanks again Sandy - you are the best.
