Writing Unapologetically
One of the lines from the Voices Strong class mantra, taught by Christy Rush-Levine is Write Unapologetically. I love these two words side-by-side standing for genuine marks on the page. Today, I planned to write a blog post right now, in the rich moments of the morning. I've been planning this writing time for weeks… Continue reading Writing Unapologetically

A Visual Reminder
Wellness was my one little word in 2009. I knew I needed some sort of daily reminder to help me keep myself focused on promoting wellness in my life. Therefore, I turned to Etsy and had someone create an image with a quote about wellness that I could frame and place on the desk in… Continue reading A Visual Reminder

The list of words in the tape along the bottom of the image, shows the connections I was interested in making.

Intentions.
Many years ago I began making a list of intentions instead of resolutions for the new year. It is just a slight word change and yet it makes a difference in my mind. What do I intend for the new year? Here were my intentions for 2010. Clearly with the new year on the brink,… Continue reading Intentions.

How’s Your OLW?
I think choosing a OLW (one little word) for the year is a great way to embark on a reflective life. When I chose vitality for my OLW, I knew I was in for a lot of learning. I expected to learn about physical health and healthy eating, but I also learned about spiritual and… Continue reading How’s Your OLW?

OLW (One Little Word) Update.

Every year I… Continue reading OLW (One Little Word) Update.

Chasing Dreams: Part II
I had envisioned being able to share with you some of the dreams on my freshmen's lists. However, Monday we had a lock down drill smack in the middle of block two, altering our plans. Then yesterday we had a fog delay, shrinking class minutes by half. It reminds me how we are constantly determining importance… Continue reading Chasing Dreams: Part II
