ali edwards does a project each year that she calls one little word. the idea is to think of a word that speaks to you, means a great deal to you and resonates with you for the coming year. i have decided to do her on line project for one little word. you can find it here. i want to stay focused on my word and also make new connections with other bloggers on line. this is one way that i can do that. and it will be fun!
i have been thinking and thinking since reading ali's post about one little word. what will my word be? i looked back in my junk mail journal to see what words i write the most often.
i found hope, faith, believe, breathe, peace, love...these are written on a regular basis. but they are not my word.
i keep thinking of all that i have been through these past months with my dad passing away, work, parenting struggles, extended family issues, etc. and i know that my word needs to encompass what i am leaving behind as well as where i am headed. after much, much thinking and pondering, it popped into my head.
my word.
the word that will let me travel away from the past and towards the future.
move.
that is my word for 2011.
move away
move towards
move on
move mountains
move my body
move homes
move my mind
move thoughtfully
move willingly
it is what i need to do. move.
move away from past reactions and move to a new way of being
move out of this house and into one closer to my daughter's school
move out of lethargy and into exercise
move towards a better understanding of how i fit in my family
move away from expectations
move into a place of peace with myself
amen
Great choice! I love it!
