Bloom

It’s that time again when I pick my word for the new year. It was getting close to the end of 2016 and I hadn’t gotten any feelings or signs about my word. So, I started listing some off in my head, and came across one I thought fit…..grace. I need to show myself more grace, but the problem was the word wasn’t speaking to me, and I was just trying to pick one out of desperation. Not sure why I thought it was mandatory to have this word before the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve….I’m a nut.

As it turns out my word came to me on January 1, and I knew, without a doubt, it was the one…….BLOOM. I love my word, and will use it to guide my year. Since I’ve been on a path of discovering myself, my passions and my gifts, bloom seems to be the perfect word for me in this shiny new year.

It will remind me to show my heart, be open to possibilities, and keep on the path to my why. I am resisting against fear and loss, and letting myself fall, without judgement or expectation. I’m not claiming everything will be rosey, but bloom is such a happy word.

Have you picked your word for this new year? Let it fall onto your heart, guide your actions, and remind you of what’s important in 2017. I’m going to push aside worry, water my creativity, nurture my heart, feed my soul, and bloom where I’m planted.

xoxo…..Sheryl
