My own additions this morning:


I love my life for the gorgeous caprese salad that I just put together and can look forward to for lunch.

I love my life for the wonderfully supportive friends that I have been blessed with who I have never met in person

I love my life for the challenges I face every day and the ability to meet them.

 
 
I have to give "props" to @Flipbooks  for pointing me toward this blog on Twitter.  If you follow @Flipbooks, you will find a lot of very, very interesting links.  I often "favorite" his links from my blackberry and sit and check them out when I get home.  If you enjoy this list- you must follow @dragosroua for it is his blog.   I recommend you start with his other lists and work your way from there.
