Let's Talk

 Usually by this time of year I have a word picked for next year.

Do you pick a word each year?

Does it impact your life and guide you through the year?

Some years there are words that really impact me and some not so much.

I had two words this year: Courage and Kindness.

Kindness was a carry over from the year before,

but just wasn't ready to give it up.

With our world the way it is I just felt like I needed Courage.

And I guess just making it through some of the mud I did survive with Courage.

Many words have come my way for 2019, but not one yet has really

jumped out and grabbed me.

So far I have thought of Adventure, Awake, Aware, Alert,

all A words. And then Clarity also was added to the list just yesterday.

 I am still open to my word and what direction to go, but I know

when the time comes, the word will say this is the direction you must go.

I can see the direction I am headed.

Right now I am taking an online class called 21 days to Write for Change.

Maybe the word will come in my writing,

maybe in meditation,

or maybe it will just pop up randomly.

I am open to moving forward,

it is the way I find my way,

a resolution.

Open!

"There's an old saying, to sing like nobody can hear you,

dance like nobody can see you and

love like you've never been hurt."

~Dick Van Dyke

This quote was in the Sunday Parade in the newspaper
and I loved reading it.
It sings to my heart.
Originally it came from someone else. 
In a way through this post I am seeing my
way more clearly and I know by the end of the year
I will know which direction to go.
And I will sing, dance and love.

Join me in choosing a word for 2019.
What direction do you want to go and grow?
