Joie de vivre

There seems to be a trend on some of the blogs I read regularly for people to choose a word or concept to use as a theme for this coming year...nina bagley' s is nascent, jude hill's new piece for the year is coma and leah kolidas of CED has chosen play for this month's theme....
I don't think I can choose just one word for a whole year so I think I'll go with the concept of joie de vivre and see how far into the year it takes me...I know I've had about all the heavy stuff I can deal with for a while and I need to turn to the lighter, more joyous side of life for a time. I'm going for "an exultation of spirit"...

I do like to have a word in a year. For me it is murmuring. As in not murmuring. Hey, it works for me. I like your phrase and I think there are sometimes in life when we need to look and see the lighter things than life has been handing us. Good for you@

joie de vivre sounds good to me! i like your bag and your new header too. I didnt think your headers could improve over the recent one with the rocks and trees - but you live in a beautiful place - so you have lots of options.
