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.

I knew my word by the time I finished your ezine. It is time. Before the day was over I had this LO in my head for it. And I finally finished it. Thanks for being an inspiration

I just wanted to say thank you. my word became more than one word, but it has the same meaning. Mine is I am worth... You can read my little poem i wrote on my blog if you would like.
Thanks again, this came at a perfect time for me.

I have been thinking about my "word for the year" since you posted, and I keep coming back to the same word...TODAY...it will be my word for the year. I tend to be both a procrastinator and a worry-wort, so this will be a motivating word. It will remind me to take one day at a time and to live TODAY to its' fullest and to concentrate on the here and now. Thanks for the inspiration...I've already started...TODAY!!!

My word for the year is RELEASE.
RELEASE stress
RELEASE the creative soul in me
RELEASE anger and frustration
RELEASE love and share it with others
RELEASE resentment and negatively
It's all about letting go of the bad... enjoying life and embracing the new.

Ali,
As soon as I read this: "Can you identify a single word that sums up what you want for yourself in 2007?" -- a word sprang to my head instantly -- I could see it in giant letters in front of me almost. The word: peace. I THEN read the rest of your post and thought: "Oh, rats. I can't use Ali's word -- I need another one." I've thought and thought -- I want balance, acceptance, delight, calm, serenity, the ability to face some unknowns with joy in my heart -- so peace is my word, too -- I have to go with what appeared before me ....... hope that's cool with you!!!

I have decided to go with Relax...that was the first word that came to me - but I wasn't sure - however after thinking about it for a few days that really is what I need to focus on this year!! Starting on my minibook right now...fun!!

i gave this one a lot of thought. first thought to use "aware," but that word doesn't allow for any real ACTION. thought and thought, and finally came up with my word for 2007..."responsibility". sounds more serious than it is... i decided that there is no more standing by...that i have to take responsibility for things in my life. responsibility for my happiness, for my goals to achieve...etc. it encompases to much. but i can't blame others if things don't turn out right. i have a responsibility to myself to admit that i am in charge of my life, and take the actions to make things happen... i'll be doing a few projects to reflect this...i'll post them when i can!

Happy New Year 2007 Ali !
My word for 2007 is SIMPLICITY.
I am also keeping the word that I lived with the last few months of 2006 : JOYFUL. This word has changed my life, my perspective on life, how I feel in life.
Looking forward to scrap a page about each of the 2 words ! :)

Ali,
My word is "Selah" there is no concrete definition, but I have always taken it to mean a holy rest in the presence of God. I think that I get too wrapped up in myself and my life, and forget to take that holy rest.

My word is "CREATIVITY." I want to be more creative in everything that I do: spending time with my children & husband, at my job (I'm a teacher), and (of course) scrapbooking/photography. I have already started by purchasing a journal and writing my thoughts down.
Thanks Ali!
