one little word®
Tags:The AEzine is back up and running for 2007.
For those of you that may be new to the site, the AEzine is a weekly newsletter that I started last fall. I try to incorporate bits and pieces of creative information and inspiration - geared towards scrapbooking and life (and the concept of life art). You can check out the past issues here. You can subscribe by entering your email address in the box up on the top right of this blog.
To celebrate the new year I wanted to share the one little word® concept which is also featured in this weeks newsletter:
I hope everyone has a great day today. And thanks for all the super nice comments on the kit yesterday.

Even without trying to find it, it found me.

Wow! You got me. I was reading about your word for the year and suddenly a word popped into my head. I instantly said, "Naww, not me." In it popped again. So I got the dictionary and and found the word. Low and behold at sometime in my life I had highlighted the word and the second definition. Needless to say, I got my word.

My word is INVINCIBLE.
I am making some pretty big life changes. I will face a lot of adversity and failure is quite possible unless I keep believing in myself.

So many wonderful words to choose from. I sat here and thought and thought what my word should be. What do I want from 2007? It really comes down to one... Time. Make time for me. Make time for my family. Take time to get things organised. Make more time for scrapping.

My word is... ADVENTURE. This year is all about change for me with a big move, a new career, new house, hopefully expand our family... and it all seems a little scary but I'm ready to embrace the adventures ahead of me.

my word is ...
BREATHE.
sometimes it gets so fast.. and so much stuff is happening.. I find myself holding my breath... or breathing too fast...
and thus..missing the important things..not enjoying the moment, losing my temper..
so this year..
my word is.... breathe.....in........out....... and absorb the world around me ..rather than flying through and not SEEING.
very cool idea Ali.

My word is going to be 'Beauty'. There is so much beautiful stuff (and people!) in my life that I'm going to celebrate it more!

Immediately, I knew the word was "HIS".
I've lived 37 years of life for me - and need to get my eyes off ME - and on the One who created me to be His child.
I can only imagine what would happen if I were to live each day knowing that I am His - things would run much smoother! If I belong to the the creator of the universe, certainly my little problems can be resolved (since He's in charge!)
Thanks for the challenge!

Diligence...It came to mind immediately. Our family life is full of new challenges and they will all require hard work and sacrifice.

My word is BREATHE.
I forget to do this sometimes and just let myself relax.
I am almost nine weeks into my third pregnancy of the year following two miscarriages so I know I need to relax and focus on breathing.
Happy New Year!!!

I was surprised how quickly my word popped into my head...JOY. Not happiness, but joy. Having joy in my heart even when things are not going "my way". I need to remember that God has a plan for my life and continually find joy in knowing this.

My word was actually chosen a few days before you sent out the AE/zine! Interesting. Some of us were already on that track of picking words.... I know you and many others have used this word for a while now but (so I'm slow..hahaha) sometimes it takes getting to a certain point in your life to be able to actually experience this. AUTHENTIC. AUTHENTICITY!
Last year without really coming to full realization till late in the year my word was FORGIVENESS. After that happened-- so many positive things began to happen one by one I just began to feel like I could finally look at some things and begin really seeing how AUTHENTIC they were!
Now I feel like I've turned a corner (wrote about it on my blog http://www.lisamsigler.typepad.com ) and my goal is to live authentically in order to discover more about the real me.
Thanks for the inspiration as always. You rock.

My word: FINISH
I want to FINISH many projects I have started. So, no new ones... just finish
all the old ones stacked about the craft room. Thanks Ali for the motivation.

Thank you for this, Ali! My word is:
"JOY"
I have been told that this is my *1* year in Chinese Numerology, which means that it will be a year of new beginnings, change and renewal. I'm so ready for it and am planning on making the most of this time and to maximize my joy each and every day.
This word will make it's way into everything I do and onto many of my scrapbook pages this year...count on it!
