One Little Word

In December 2010 I stumbled upon the practice of “one little word.”
Some people I know choose a word that describes a value they want to invite into their life.
Some people choose something they want to celebrate and do more of.

Ali Edwards hosts a blog and scrapbooking project as a way to be creative and thoughtful about your word.  I joined the scrapbooking project for the year 2011 with the word “notice.” The choice that year was because I found I was doing a lot of noticing in my writing and photography and wanted to record the experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and while I decided to go forward into 2012  with my own monthly prompts in my notebook,  it is an enterprise I heartily support and may join again in the  future.

My one little word for 2012 is “delight.”  This time the choice was because I want to invite more of it into my life or perhaps just to make sure I’m noticing the delight all around me.  As I mentioned in my other blog, I know that my one little words will layer one upon the other like lace over silk – providing a rich and textured experience for me and I look forward to recording it – possibly on this blog, but surely on my other one!
