Lifetime

Laughter, to lighten our daily burdens Insight, to seek the path that is most fulfilling Faith, in God, family and self Enjoyment, in the day to day blessings Togetherness, a sense of belonging to friends and community Intelligence, to be inquisitive and to question why Memories, to warm us when life seems cold Expectation, to grow and blossom

This should go on the inside of serious greeting card as it is that worthwhile. It is better than quite a few that I have ever read. Sorry about the delay in responding to your kind remarks, but I was moving all last month and this, too. Regards, Grard.

I think you have captured all of the essential elements that make the gift of life so special, Lena. Haven't seen you online in a while, but I think you have given new insight to the acrostic form here. Love, Carolyn
