As I sit here counting down the hours until 2012, I have FINALLY come up with my word for the year.
Refresh.
2011 has been such a challenging year for me. It was filled with such sadness... I often felt overwhelmed and felt like around every corner was a road block. Two steps forward constantly felt followed by three steps backwards.
So these last few weeks, I have felt a little frozen thinking I just have to make it to 2012... i think i can... i think i can... i think i can.
Then this morning... thinking I am finally only a day away... my word for the year came to me.
Refresh.
And I feel relief.
Happy New Year.... here's to 2012!!!!
{feel free to share your word for the year... I could use the motivation!!}



The year following my dad's death, I choose "merry" because I felt so beaten up by grief and circumstances. I needed to find and make merry not just wait for it to come to me and it helped. I hope "refresh" will bring you peace, healing and moments of pure joy.
This coming year my word is "simplify". It is already making big changes in my life and I am grateful.
Happy New Year!

That is a great word!! I really really feel that 2012 will be a much better year. I can feel it!! (but don't smack me if I was wrong haha)
I don't know what my word will be. "Change" was so appropriate for me for 2011 huh????? hahaha
