So last year was Mindfulness. In some respects, I improved on staying in the moment. The difficult part was persistently staying in the moment. But I feel the word was appropriate for 2015.
Gratitude:
* according to the dictionary: the quality of being thankful.
* my favorite t shirt says Gratitude- to endure against the odds; to unite and connect; to admire, to love; to honor a hero; to be a hero. This is so much bigger than me.
I chose this word not because I'm not grateful, but I want to work harder on being grateful. Grateful for the little things I take for granted (the ability to run every day, to have a blanket on me while I read, etc) and to appreciate my life, family and friends more.
Some days, I feel I whip through the motions. And I'm exhausted. Not a good feeling. I want to take my time and savor the moments before they are gone.
I have the exercise part down; now I want to work on my nutrition. And being grateful and saying grace before I eat should help me accomplish this goal.
Happy 2016! May you have a wonderful year as well!
