"Il n'y a qu'un bonheur dans la vie, c'est d'aimer et d'être aimé."

George Sand said:

"There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved."

I couldn't agree more.

I am absolutely, totally, fully, wholly and completely head-over-heels in love.

It's a love unlike any other. It's the complete surrender to the whims of my heart. It's the warm comfort of possibility, wonder and unending potential.

..it's, joie de vivre.

Now, more than ever, we must learn to love every single little piece of life that we can; we must dive in, dance with complete abandon, sink our teeth into it, and love the heck out of life.

One thing I know about practicing the art of loving life is that when you do, it finds a way to love you right back.

Someone I am *lucky* enough to now finally call family, lives every single day committed to this credo. (Her name is Josie Santi. Go check her out - she really rocks!)

In the spirit of ~ joie de vivre ~ avec would like to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated in last month's Valentine's Day Raffle Fundraiser. Your contributions make our mission possible:
