One Word 2020

A single word can be a powerful thing. It can be the ripple in the pond that changes everything. It can be sharp and biting or rich and soft and slow. From my own personal experience, it can be a catalyst for enriching your life.

Can you identify a single word that sums up what you want for yourself in 2020?
It can be something tangible or intangible. It could be a thought, or a feeling, or an emotion. It can be singular or plural. The key is to find something that has personal meaning for you. This is not your mother's word or your spouse's word or your child's word - this is YOUR word.

One little word can have big meaning in your life if you allow yourself to be open to the possibilities. And here's one thing that is totally interesting: sometimes a word will pop into your brain and it will not make any sense to you right now. Give it some time. Let it percolate a bit. I have often found that our hearts speak to us in very unique ways. Maybe this is a word you need to hear but just aren't ready for it yet.

In 2020, I will choose one word for myself — a word that I can focus on, mediate on, and reflect upon as I go about my daily life. This word will become a part of my life in one way or another. It will be imbedded into who I am, and into who I'm becoming. Could this be what I've needed (and didn't know I needed). To help me to breathe deeper, to see clearer, and to grow.
