In honor of the lives that were lost on this day, I have a special request for you: Celebrate the life you have! How? Well, I've been asking myself that very same question.

Just leave a comment any time between now and 10:00 PM CDST on Tuesday, September 14th (Seasonality's Birthday!) saying that you wish to be entered, and your name will be dropped into the hat. Link to this post on your own blog, then leave another comment with your name and blog address, and your name will be entered twice. Good luck!
P.S. For those of you who are in the habit of leaving your comments on facebook, I will try to collect any of those I come across, but just to be safe (and permanent) it would be best to leave them here on the blog itself.

Becky, I love your list of what Seasonality is all about. With your permission, I am going to print it out and post it in my office as a reminder.
Linda: I'd be delighted - and you are now entered in the prize drawing!
Becky, I love reading your blog, and like Linda, I love your list. It's like a personal "to do" list for reaching a fulfilling yet simple life. I'm sure I'll refer back to it often. Congrats on the blog's anniversary--and please--keep on writing!
Susan: Why thank you ma'am! Your name is in the hat.
