I first discovered the Word of the Year in 2007 by Michelle, Kristi, and Lisa and was immediately inspired by the idea originated by Alli Edwards:
“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.”
So for today’s Talk To Me Tuesday I’d like to challenge you to pick a word that sums up what you want for yourself in 2010?
To encourage everyone to pick their word, I’m giving away prizes!! Three lucky winners will have their Word of the Year customized to one of these fabulous necklaces.
1. RHB Designs
3. Frostings
Simply leave your Word of the Year in the comments.
Feel free to leave your post link or video, if you’ve created one.  Contest ends Jan. 11th.
My word of the year is Release. There are several things in my life that need letting go.
First of all – I love your site!! Thank you!
My word for this year is “today”. I have been off work with medical issues since the end of October. Some part of what made my health issue worse was stress, which usually makes most illnesses worse So, since I have been hospitalized, seeing medical professionals and having tests, I have had an opportunity to focus on doing my best for “today” and not worry about the future or beating myself up about the past. Tomorrow will come no matter what, and I can worry about what comes up when it happens.
Happy New Year!
I found my word — FAITH.
