Our Word View – Word of the Week = ZEST

SUNDAY POSTING ~ A COLLABORATIVE BLOG BETWEEN TWO FRIENDS (ME AND MY FRIEND BARB) WHO’S PATHS WERE SEPARATED FOR 20+ YEARS AND HAVE FOUND ONE ANOTHER ONCE AGAIN ONLINE. BOTH SHARE A LOVE OF THE OCEAN, NATURE, FAMILY, PETS AND OF COURSE PHOTOGRAPHY! A FONDNESS FOR INSPIRATIONAL SAYINGS HAS SPARKED THIS PROJECT. EACH SUNDAY WE WILL POST THE “WORD OF THE WEEK” AND OUR INDIVIDUAL INTERPRETATION OF THE WORD VIA TWO SEPARATE PHOTOS ON OUR BLOG “OUR WORD VIEW”!

One thing my husband and I noticed while traveling in France is that the French do everything with ZEST. They live in the moment and don’t spend ridiculous amounts of energy worrying about the ramifications of smoking and drinking too much or sunbathing until they are a dark brown. They just go for everything with gusto. It made us realize how we Americans spend so much energy worrying about what will kill us that we forget to live! I for one want to live my life with a little more ZEST! How about you?
