Words for the New Year 2022

 Beginning in 2013, instead of making New Year’s Resolutions, I’ve been choosing words for the New Year. Thanks, Connie! The words themselves are always written in good faith, and though often remembered, reflected upon even, do not seem to have any power in and of themselves. Sort of like resolutions:)

 I still love the thought of it, so this, my tenth year, I will continue the tradition. As I did last year, I will see them as intentions; Wishes thrown out into the Universe instead of Words to live by.

 My Words/Intentions for this new year are shaped by present thoughts, needs and hopes.

Health

Family

Creativity

May you take the time to find your Word/Wishes/Intentions and have a healthy, happy, altogether splendid New Year.

I liked this so much, I felt it was worth repeating.
