  1. Hi, Laurie!

    I'ts a pleasure to visit your blog! Last day of the challenge and its really been great from beginning to end!

    It is a wonderful sight when you witness the face of a person that has a zest for life! I don't witness that emotion in very many people- do you? I had a cousin that exuded zest for life all the time; I would watch her and wonder - how do you get that? That was during a time in my life when I just couldn't find purpose in life and wondered what it was that caused my cousin to be so zestful about!

    I've never forgotten her facial expression for life! There are times when I have a Zest for life; I have peace and contentment within and that accounts for a lot; it would be nice to feel zest more often!

    Great blog, Laurie! I am now one of your followers; I'm sure I will enjoy my choose!

    Hope you will come by to visit my blog and choose to become my follower as well!
