The tenth zodiac is blinded by the Sun. He shines so bright here now !!
Because, I have been nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award by 3 awesome people –
And this is going to be a long post !!
Era of The Hidden Soul
Mayowa of The Grey Clover
Jofina of Merak_Ibe with Jophiel
About them :
Era is a doctor by profession but she has a great talent in writing poetry and motivational write ups. My latest obsession in her blog are her Hindi Poems. I totally love them !! ๐ We have developed a special bond over these days and am happy to have met her in WP ๐ โค
Am doing this post days after the nomination and am sure she would have forgotten about it.
Mayowa – I was attracted to her blog by the name – The grey Clover; I found it interesting. And her blog was more interesting !! She has some beautiful poems and she posts inspirational poems of the best poets from olden days.
Also she has a YouTube channel where she reads out poems and her voice is beautiful to hear !! make sure to listen to her ๐
Jofina is an awesome blogger who is inspired by her dreams. She wants to make the world a better place by sprinkling love and by motivating her fellow beings. Visit her blog to read some amazing quotes on life that will motivate you. Oh… did I tell you that she also has a section where she shares some DIY ideas ?
Common guys.. show some love to all these amazing bloggers and let us support each other !!
Rules :
The Sunshine Blogger Award is given by bloggers to bloggers who inspire positiveness and creativity in the blogging community. The rules are:
- Thank blogger(s) who nominated you and link back to their blog.
- List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post and/or on your blog.
- Answer the 11 questions the blogger asked you.
- Nominate up to 11 new blogs to receive the award, write them 11 new questions and notify them about the nomination.
Era’s Questions for me :
- Do you think your name is cute?
I do not know if it is cute, but I love my name ๐
Nima Mohan – I keep my maiden name even after marriage ๐ - If you had a chance to name yourself, which name would you choose and why?
I don’t know.
But if at that point of time, If I know the epics or mythologies in India, I am sure to choose one from them ๐ - Do you have any hobbies other than writing
I used to dance and have learnt a bit of Carnatic music ( Classical music). But not connected to them since I joined for job and now,
I watch a lot of classical dance videos and listen to songs. - Be it books or movies, if given chance, which characterโs life would you choose to live and why?
I won’t choose any. I am happy the way I am :) - If you have a job now, are you happy with it? If you could change it now, which one would you choose?
The only job I have now is called ” Motherhood” and I enjoy it.
But it is not that I don’t get upset. of course I do and sometimes I lose my temper. But that is what all moms are like !! - Do you like to cook?
I cook pretty well, but I take breaks too. If not in the mood, I do have the freedom to eat out or order food home ( Thanks to hubby for that ๐ ). And if you have read my previous award posts, you know that my husband is an excellent cook. So am kind of lucky in that area ๐ - Which is your Zodiac sign?
CAPRICORN – which is the tenth in zodiac. Hence the blog name- thetenthzodiac ๐ And I share it with you Era !! - Do you believe in predictions made for your zodiac sign?
yes I do ๐
Not only in the predictions based on zodiac signs, but also in pure astrology based on horoscopes. Being born into a Hindu family, I have grown up listening to all those things. But I take care not to get too much involved too. I always leave it to God and I have immense faith in God ๐ - Are you, so far, proud, and satisfied with your blogโs progress?
Yes I am .
Something that I started just for the fun of knowing has turned into my passion now ๐ - Whatโs the most useless piece of knowledge you know?
I dont know ๐ - Which is your favorite work from your blog? Leave a link so everyone can enjoy it.
I have several of them. I had taken part in OctPoWriMo which is short for October Poetry Writing Month. This I discovered a soon as I started my blog, and I joined the challenge just to see how good I am . I wrote one poem for each day of the month and it can be under the header OctPoWriMo in my blog. But maybe because I did not read other blog posts or some other factor, I still have poems under that head that has not even one like. Though I was sad initially, as time moved on, I too did. All those poems were written with so much effort and dedication. So I f you please, I would request you all to go through at least some of the poems and let me know about them ๐
Mayowa’s Questions for me :
1.When did you start writing?
ย I started writing last year ie 2019 ๐
2.ย What are your writing goals?
I don’t have any goals now..
I only want to write poetry that others love ๐ โค
3.ย What do you prefer to read, factual or fictional writing?
Fictions ๐
4.ย Do you prefer poetry or prose?
Both and it depends on my mood. Nowadays reading more of poetry by
Emily Dickinson ๐
5.ย Do you prefer short fiction or novels?
I love both ๐ That too depends on my mood ๐
6.ย What is your dream holiday destination?
Istanbul was on my list for years and we cut it off the list last December.
I do not mind going there again.the city has something that keeps beckoning me towards her. I felt the call while in Istanbul too !! I wonder what connection we have
7.ย How would you spend your last day on earth, if you could chose to do absolutely anything?ย
I am sure I will not be doing anything other than freaking out!!
8.ย What is your favorite song?ย
Hard to answer, not limited to one. It always reflects my mood ๐
9.ย Do you use social media to promote your writing and if so, which platforms?ย
I used to, but not any more.
Only WordPress for now ๐
10.ย Have you ever written a book, or do you plan to (please provide details)?ย
Not yet !!
And who knows if I will !!
I wonder if ever I write one, will anyone enjoy !!??
11. Large hotel or small guest house: which do you prefer and why?ย
That too depends on the need of the hour.
Jofina’s Questions for me :
1. What is your favorite color and why?
I have a wide spectrum of favorites. How can a writer love just one color, when all are needed to color my imaginations?
2. How you are passing time at this situation?
I read, write, play with my son, help mom and dad, teach my son ๐
3. What motivates you in your life?
Everything. And whatever is needed for success, I hunt them down and motivate myself ๐
4. What is your favorite food?
Anything tasty aka spicy ๐
5. A place you love to visit.
Nothing comes to my mind now !!
6. If you could have any super power what would it be and why?
I prefer not to have ๐
With great power comes great responsibility !! ๐ ๐ ๐
7. What is the last book youโve read?
Pride and Prejudice ๐
I gave the same answer in my last nomination too. That shows how lazy I am to start another ๐
8. How would you describe about yourself?
I am an ambivert, have a beautiful world of imaginations. I also have a beautiful family, I am blessed and I am happy in all ways ๐ โค
9. If you have a nickname, what is it
Nimmu ๐ ๐ ๐
10. What your name means
I really don’t know.
If anyone knows the meaning of Nima in your language, Please inform me ๐
11. Your favorite songs?
Hard to answer, not limited to one. It always reflects my mood ๐
(Same answer given for Mayowa’s 8th question)
Thus I come to end of the very long post.
And my nominations are for all of you !!
Please go ahead and make a post with any 11 questions from the above 33 or if you have time, answer all the 33 ๐
Love you all โค
~Moon love and starry shine~ from the tenth zodiacย โค

The starting lines are amazing and so is the whole post!โค
“In Tibetan Nima (also spelled as “Nyima”) is also a female or male given name which means ‘the sun’, also the one with radiance of the Sun. And in Hebrew as a female given name it means ‘grace, mercy’.”
Just googled it. ๐
So, now the sunshine blogger award winner’s name is as radiant as the sun itself! ๐๐
