“I love people who make me laugh.
I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh.
It cures a multitude of ills.
It’s probably the most important thing in a person.”
― Audrey Hepburn –
captured on the streets of new york city…

Robin, you sure captured the essence of the quote in these pictures. Love the black & white contrast. You are VERY talented.
gotham girl says
Thank you Angie for stopping in and for your wonderful comments! Made my first day of the new year!
Ginnie says
Laughter is probably more important than we realize, Robin, and I want to make sure I keep doing more of it all the time, even if it embarrasses people. My kids will sometimes egg me on just to hear me laugh with abandon. 😀 Thanks for sharing this (and I’m so glad your site is now working).
HAPPY NEW YEAR, again.

I’ve been told so often that I have my dad’s laugh. That is the biggest compliment anyone could ever give me. I just read about a hummingbird’s delicate grace…reminding us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life’s sweetest creation. So so true! Thank you!
Petra says
Robin, at the beginning of this new year this is a great reminder of the importance of inviting more laughter into every day routine, thank you! I especially love the upper photo, it’s gorgeous.

Oh, I just love this post and photos. What a great, genuine capture of the moment. A wonderful way to start the new year! There is nothing like those endorphins flowing when you are caught by surprise by one of those great, laughing fits that come from deep in your inner core.
To have a friend to share that with is a precious gift. Bless you,
Dimmy.
xoxoxo
gotham girl says
Yes, “deep laughing fits that come from deep in your inner core” are so priceless!!! Happy New Year sweetie! xoxo P.S. you would LOVE dimmy aka Megan. We worked together at PCS for years and have remained very good friends ever since. I can be promised laughter with wild abandon when I’m with her! Happy New Year!

Susan says
That’s what I always miss the most being far from family … when my mom & her sisters, me & mine with all the cousins would be together and the deep belly laughs would start, tears flowing, hicupping with trying to say anything and just rolling on the floor! Fantastic images you got of these sistas!
