Simple Serving: Link Love #3 - Blog Action Day Edition

October 17th, 2008 by Jack Rugile - 9 Comments - Posted in Simple Serving

Link Love FenceEvery once in a while I like to link to some of the best recent articles about simple living, frugality, environmental sustainability, and personal growth. Feel free to submit your own links or leave feedback in the comments section!

I want to apologize for my lack of a post on Blog Action Day. I was really excited to write one, but many things came up that kept me from doing it. I hate it when people don’t do what they say they will do… so I am very frustrated with myself!  Hopefully you can forgive me.

Luckily, the blogging community came to my rescue on Blog Action Day. The participation was incredible and some amazing posts were written. I would like to link to those who participated with some exceptional posts. I know this does not make up for my absence on Blog Action Day, but it is the least I can do. Enjoy!

    Hi Jack: Life happens. Like Maya said, the important thing is that we all walk away from Blog Action Day 2008 with a commitment to help the less fortunate and that we act to fulfill that commitment. Thank you for the link love.

    Jack, thanks for including me among many great articles written about the poverty that is all around us.

    And, while you may not have written about poverty, you’ve read lots of great stuff - and that was one of the biggest things for me about Blog Action Day - that I learned so much from everything else I read. And that’s what it was all about getting the word out - which you are continuing to do here!

    Thanks for the love link. Blog Action Day was very moving to me. It was a call for action that I’m still embracing.

    Thanks so much for the link love! I really enjoyed having a reason to stretch the reach and aim of my blog, and of seeing the stretching of the blogosphere as a whole.

    I hate feeling so disconnected from events in the world. I live in Denver, CO and have so many opportunities. My life is fine compared to so many people in the world, but I still seem to get caught up in my own problems. I appreciate your understanding of my situation you guys, thanks!

    Keeping up with a blog while dealing with life can be a difficult task.

    Thanks so much for the link love! I didn’t realize you did this till today…so thank you - on Thanksgiving Day no less!
    Hope you have much to be thankful for. I totally understand how life, career and blogging don’t always balance…but hey. Unless you are blogging to make a living from it, you have the right to keep your blog in the “when I have time” category. I have to take time out’s often…it’s the price of success! : )

    How you think when the economic crisis will end? I wish to make statistics of independent opinions!
