A To Z Of Gratitude: Z

Z  is for Zest

 One of my favourite words.

 It is defined as having great enthusiasm and energy. Pouring your whole heart and soul into every task.

Adopt this attitude and live your life with boundless zest!

 (And that's a wrap, my blogging friends, for the 'A to Z of Gratitude' posts. I hope you enjoyed them.)

    What a great quotation! I've lived life with and without zest, but with zest is definitely better!

      I had such a great time doing this. I'll have to come up with something similar for the upcoming year. A different topic but something that is just as much fun.

    Hey Martha,

    Yeah, I know, you've been eagerly waiting for a comment from me, yes me, shy and humble me! :) Zest is the best and Zest soaps can evidently put the power into your shower.

    Have a good one, eh.

    Gary :)

      It is a really nice smell. My permanent choice would be vanilla. Or coconut.

    2. UnknownDecember 22, 2015 at 9:59 PM

      coconut? now that's a first for me. never heard of coconut perfume or air fresheners.

      Delete
    3. MarthaDecember 22, 2015 at 10:35 PM

      Maybe not air fresheners but mist type sprays and perfumes. I have vanilla-scented mist bottles around the house and occasionally add the scent in the air. Although I prefer candles. Candles are much nicer.
