One Little Word 2013 | The Words

Can Thank you be my word? I know it's two words but I want to try and make a read effort this year to be thankful for everything I have. And not think about the things that I think I'm missing (because in reality, I have everything think I need and way way more!)

[...] and the sparks and excitement of the New Year still hang in the air. My mind is still swirling with one little word for the year (I haven’t chosen mine yet, there are a few that are calling out to me- [...]

Apply is my 2013 word

My word this year is COMPLETE/COMPLETELY. To complete lots of little things around my home, completely live in the moment, complete
jobs at work etc.

What an inspiring read that went along with so many OLW's! Artist Mel Kadel has artwork labeled "Centered", and I loved the image it projected. I may be centered in the eye of storms, ha ha. . .but I like to think I seek to be centered in Christ. Happy New Year peeps!

FLY. I'm using a bird as my symbol along with my word. This is based on the Toni Morrison quote in Song of Solomon, "If you want to fly, you've got to get rid of all the stuff that's weighing you down." I'm hoping to get many things in my life in order and soar through 2013. :)

[...] mulled it over for a while, I’ve taken the plunge and signed up for Ali Edward’s One Little Word class–year-long class. It’s going to be fun and challenging. The word I chose to get to know [...]

My word is LEARN! I'm beginning to paint...this is all so new to me and I'm opening myself to try this. I've been playing with art journaling and loving it...so this may be my next step!

My word for 2013 is DASH. I am focusing on the dash that is written between our year of birth and our year of death. The choices we make, how we live that 'dash' tells our story and I want to make my dash count.
Thank you for giving us a chance to share and I wish everyone luck with their journey.

My word this year is ORDER. It was born out of looking up the definition for chaos---what my life is now. The antonym is order, hence I chose to go with it this year. I think I am liking it.

My word for this year is MAKE. I wrote a tiny blog post about it, too: http://johannahoerrmann.de/en/make-my-one-little-word-for-2013/

I've wanted to do this for years and instead of a large list of goals/resolutions I'm going with OLW. Mine is up there already, authenticity.

It took me a while to choose a word this year but I have decided to focus on the word abide for 2013. I am learning that what God wants most from me is just to focus on abiding in Him---concentrating on being with Him instead of getting caught up with doing things for Him.

My word is value. I have spent too much time not knowing what my worth is and I am choosing to value myself more in 2013.

My word is FAMILY. With both of my boys now teenagers, I really want to focus on strengthening our bond as a family. I've made it a rule that I am not going to take on any projects that don't directly affect our family in a positive way this year and I'm eliminating those activities that keep us apart.

My word is Structure.

[...] led to a lot of reflection about 2012 and ideas for 2013.  Ali Edwards always recommends “one little word” for the year, and this year I am choosing “acceptance.”  For me, it means [...]

My word is "flourish." Here is the blog post about it:

Thanks for the inspiration!
