I have not traditionally focused on specific words each year. A friend of mine recently wrote about her words this year, last year, and the year before.
From Shauna,
But I have once again chosen a pair of words to focus on this year. Last year I chose
LISTEN & WAIT
and the year before it was
GROW & RESIST.
This year I’m going with
NOURISH & ACCOMMODATE –
two words that focus less on my personal growth and more on how I treat others.
I think this is an amazing tradition. MollyMadonna has one word she’s focusing on this year, focusing on it in a most beautiful way,
Everything about this season is calling me to grow, and my prayer for 2011 is that I will…in a number of ways. I can already count on my belly growing (and hopefully my patience and eventually my pain tolerance along with it:), and my ability to love unconditionally will certainly grow as we expect this tiny child.
Read her whole post… it really is lovely.
