I read a really fun post and challenge over at Blogging For dot INFO. The author,Thu Nguyen, posts about how she accepted The 7 Link Challenge and takes the time to explain what it is.
The basic concept is that you create a post with seven links. The first link is to your very first post, the second link is the post you enjoyed writing the most, the third link is to a post that had a great discussion, the fourth link is to someone else’s blog post that you wish you had written, the fifth link is to your most helpful post, the sixth link is to a post that has a title that you are proud of, the seventh link is to a post you wish more people had read.
I decided to participate in this challenge so here are my seven links…
- My first post: Depression and Anxiety as Seen Through Glasses In my first post I talk about my glass is half empty view point (which I no longer have). I compare my thinking at the time, to how I would like to view things at some point in my future. I really like it, because after looking at it again, I realized how far I have come since I wrote it.
- The post I most enjoyed writing: Super Cool Mom! I enjoyed writing this post so much, because it was about a wonderful day I had with my mother. Looking back at our relationship, I honestly had not ever thought she and I would enjoy spending that much time alone together. I do now. Not only did I enjoy that day with her so much, I love the memory that day created.
- A post which had a great discussion: The Anonymous Blogger Although this is a fairly recent post, I really enjoyed the comments/conversation that took place on it.
- A post on someone else’s blog I wish I had written: Cravings I wish I had written this post. It talks about food cravings and I like that it is from the perspective of a diabetic.
- My most helpful post: What Not To Say To Someone With Depression I think this was probably my most helpful post or one of the most helpful post I have written. I am basing that purely on the feed back I got for it.
- A post whose title I am proud of: The Great Escape! I love the title to this post. It totally describes what is going on in the post itself, great escape!
- This is a post I wish more people had read: Help with Psychiatric Medications, Part I and Part II I had written these two posts because I know many people struggle to pay for their medications. I had hoped more people would have taken the time to read them, even if they did not need the advice offered in them. If they had read it they could have passed the information along to someone else.
What 7 Links would you post for the 7 Link Challenge? I would love to see what other people come up with.
Hi Melissa.
You're up! I'm really glad you took up the challenge. Following through and reading the other posts as well. Thanks for mentioning me in your post. Hopefully, passing this along you'll build more friendships in the blogosphere. You certainly got mine.
Here's to many more challenges! 🙂

Thank you for taking the time to read this and look at the links. This really was a fun post to do. I can see myself doing something like it again in a few months.

Melissa, I couldn't open link 1, 5 and 7. Can you see if the links are inserted fully without the … 🙂 I had to search the article to get through.

Thank you for letting me know. I believe I have them fixed now. That is what happens when you try blogging when you are half asleep and dozing off at the same time. LOL
