"joie de vie" : does not exist in french;
It is "joie de vivre". It is a synonym of joy, simple happiness with no other reason than being alive. Personal comment : rare and precious quality.

The joy of living/joy of life
Is it "joie de vie" or "joie de vivre"?
To Tucksie: "C'est la vie!" means "That's life".
Yep, definitely "joie de vivre"

It's French for "joy of life." If someone has joie de vive, they enjoy living. It usually means they are cheerful and outgoing.
