I first read about this project on a blog and I knew it was perfect for me. Once I enrolled and was tasked with choosing my word it was way more complicated than I imagined. I could take this exercise in many directions: contentment, forward, discover, truth, acceptance, kindness, connect, or be. There were many good options and I had a hard time making a decision. While I am grateful for much, there are still things I want in this world: a child, adventure, peace, to complete a sprint triathlon (for the record, I can't run a 5K today!), and the list goes on. After vacillating over my words for a couple of days, I stumbled on an article about the importance of spirituality in new years resolutions. I found my word. Or maybe my word found me, but FAITH is the one thing I need to make my dreams a reality.....
I love shiny and new. I love words. I love self exploration. I love writing. I love photography. Those concepts I can commit to and I look forward to seeing where they take me. I may not end 2014 pounds lighter or dollars richer, but I do hope to end the year with faith stronger and a guiding principle to take with me for many years to come. Have you picked a word for 2014?
XOXO
