ONE WORLD....ONE HEART EVENT




I will be participating in the ONE WORLD ONE HEART EVENT. My wife talked me into this event. So I figured that I would go along with it and support her and this event. Please post a comment to this blog entry. By doing this, you will be entered into a drawing for a handmade work of art made by my wife Veronica. See work of art above. This is the work of art that you will receive should the random number generator pick your placement on the comments page of this blog entry. For a close up view, please click on the picture and it will enlarge it to a bigger size.
I will pick the winner by using a random number generator, on 2/12/09. Whatever number the generator gives me, I will count down from the top of the comments and go down until I reach the number that the generator gave me. Here is more information about this event:
A woman named Lisa Swifka is the author of this blog, as well as the host of this worldwide blogging event that is taking place January 19-February 12. Rather than me trying to explain it all to you, I'll share an excerpt from Lisa, the creator of One World-One Heart:"The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way...This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.......in the end it's about finding kindred spirits. Someone who may be fairly new to blogging, not sure how to navigate, find others and have others find them....Some are long time bloggers and in some cases well known in the art community. Whatever the case it brings all of them together...We are not solving the worlds problems nor are we curing anything nor are we changing the world. We are merely generating a closer community between humans through blogging
