one little word

I'm still thinking about my one little word for the next year. I don't want to rush my choice since a few words are still coming up and I haven't decided yet which one to choose. I was browsing Ali's blog today and was listening to the list of words people shared with Ali last year. I really liked to listen to the words read by Liz Lamoreux, it made me think more about their meanings.

What Ali says:

one little word
"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.

Can you identify a single word that sums up what you want for yourself in 20..?
It can be something tangible or intangible. It could be a thought or a feeling or an emotion. It can be singular or plural. The key is to find something that has personal meaning for you. This is not your mother’s word or your spouse’s word or your child’s word – this is YOUR word.

One little word can have big meaning in your life if you allow yourself to be open to the possibilities. And here’s one thing that is totally interesting: sometimes a word will pop into your brain and it will not make any sense to you right now. Give it some time. Let it percolate a bit. I have often found that our hearts speak to us in very unique ways. Maybe this is a word you need to hear but just aren’t ready for it yet. Again, be open to the possibilities."
