Clarity. My word for 2009. It kept coming to mind, no matter how hard I tried to think of another word. So clarity it must be.
There are ways that it can seriously be applied. To me.
Oddly enough, in trying to explain why clarity is my word for 2009, an acrostic came to mind.
C – carefully
L – looking
A – at
R – reasons,
I – ideas,
T – thoughts,
Y – yourself
Something you may not know about me. I can be impulsive. I get myself into trouble sometimes by doing things for no good reason. Or, maybe a better way to say it is that I carelessly abandon something that was being done for a very good reason to do something else for less of a good reason.
I sometimes chase after thoughts or ideas that swim through my mind, and it’s not always good because I should have been staying right where I was, finishing what was more important. Maybe I’m a lot like Pooh Bear in that sense.
It’s also been on my heart lately to pay attention to how I am presenting myself to my children, my husband, and others. Question to self: are you behaving yourself in a manner that lines up with what you really believe?

Your word is perfect
I think mine has to be fresh, because of the fresh start we’re starting this year. I’m trying to enjoy all the newness that’s about to commence.

love your thoughts here….I’m still considering my word for this year, or at least trying to narrow it down
I could very well use this one as I seem to have the same ‘problem’ as you 
Love your word – and your words friend. I need to do more thinking on a word for myself. I think I’ve been avoiding it, but it is a good thing.
Thanks for sharing.
Love,
Leslie
