my one little word for the year



For the past 3 years I have participated with Ali Edwards One Little Word project where you select one word for the year where you strive to live your word. This year my word chose me, actually it more or less drop kicked me. Reclaim. Living my word last year was a challenge. Sometimes I was doing it and other times I was dropping things left and right but wasn't going to let it get to me so I kept getting back up and worked even harder at it.
This year’s word is about picking up those pieces that I’ve dropped and reclaiming myself, who I amwho I want to be and just simply doing it. . My poor blog was one of the things I dropped, along with some if my creative mojo but now that it is a new year and one of my goals for 2012 is to blog more even if no one reads it.  It’s great outlet for documenting my amazy crazy life and with a new situation and everything now is basically balanced I can reclaim what I have lost.
So here’s to a great year with many new adventures on the horizon!

one little word with so much weight

I thought a lot about what my one little word shall be this year. I thought about how it can apply right now and how I can make it apply 360 days from now. As many inspiring and uninspiring words came fluttering in and out of my scattered thoughts one stuck around. Balance.

In 2010 I lost my balance a lot and stumbled and tripped my way through the year. There were a few moments where I caught myself, stood up straight and moved on but as more life happened the more off balance I became. I'm not a quitter so I have taken those learning moments for what it is, a learning experience that is not only character building but a reminder of why I am here. I am determined to learn and grow while I try my best to balance life's happenings.

So welcome 2011. I am ready for you and all that you have in store because as I walk the tight rope of life I know I have a safety net: Faith and the Gospel.
