Two Little Words

It’s that time of year again. Time to think of resolutions. For some of us, resolutions take the form of picking One Little Word. I have been semi-doing OLW for a few years now, without even realizing it. I didn’t read about OLW until late 2011, but I had sort of been doing it on my own. I would pick a word or phrase and try to let it influence me in my life for the coming year. I’ve never taken Ali’s class, but hope to one day.

Here are some of my past words/phrases

2012- Do
2011- Go outside
2010- Keep in touch/ Communicate
2009- Change

This year I put a lot of thought into my Word. I narrowed it down to four words, then two. And then I kind of got stuck. Both are great words. One of them I can totally embrace. The other, I’m not sure if I’m ready for, but I feel like I need it this year. One is safe, one is scary.

So I think I’ll just pick them both, and see where they take me. They are very similar anyway.

My Words are-

Strong and Brave

I’ll get more into why I picked them in a later post. Right now I’m just happy to have them. Excited to live with them this year.
