I have been actively participating in Ali Edwards' One Little Word practice for a few years now and I am so pleased to have another year of choosing a guiding word. I have found them to be so much more impactful and encouraging than resolutions!
2009 BALANCE
2010 FOCUS
2011 DO
2012 OPEN
2013 NOURISH
This year, the course has been moved to Ali Edwards blog and I'm participating there and within the Facebook group. So far, so good. Well, it's only January so let's hope so! Every year, the January assignment is dedicated to getting to know our word better and deciding what we want it to bring into our lives in the year ahead.
My word for 2014 is GRACE
Through my "Desire Map" work, one of my four core desired feelings is GRACE. It is, to me, the toughest of all my choices. I figured I could use a bit more *umph* so made it my guiding word for 2014. I'm glad I did. I am very intimidated as well as comforted by it - especially after completing this initial assignment!
Until my page protectors arrive, I'll be creating my assignments digitally. They will be printed and cut up and rearranged to go into my album, with all of my previous assignments later.

ONE little WORD is a 12-month workshop created by Ali Edwards. With monthly prompts, I use photos, text and other good stuff to record how my guiding word has shown up in my life through the year and my personal growth as a result. Keep your word visible with me, join in here.
