@manouche, thank you so much for taking the time to compose this well-developed comment. I had no idea my presence here had such an influence on your steemit experience.

Your posts are a desert rain. There's always a lively, refreshing energy woven into your content that is invigorating to the spirit. What's normal in your world seems incredibly adventurous and exciting, and it's always fun to see what you've been seeing. Though I may not always comment, I always enjoy your posts thoroughly. (Looking forward to your future origami posts!)

I read @agmoore's Anhelo: Ode to Color and was promptly swept away into that remarkable world. Clearly, it is a story crafted with care. It exhibits eloquent writing, as you said, and its tone is chilling to be sure. Anhelo is still lingering in my mind, a week after reading it. (What would my life be like in a world where color and art is dangerous?)

Thank you for your thoughtful nomination, Manu, and for being your bright and shiny self. One of these days, I'll get the most unexpected surprise in a postcard from a friend I've never met. Imagine where that card is now, and all the places it must have already been. Now there's a post!
