My 2012 Word of the year is STRENGTH

Looking back at my life, I notice many of my strengths and weaknesses over time.  Many of what I may consider my strengths some may consider a weakness - but it is my opinion that matters.

I have many strengths, and one of them is my own strength.  This is something to which for some reason is always downplayed.  Mostly by me.

I feel stronger than I have been in a long, long time, and not only physically (and I have my kickboxing to thank for that) but emotionally too.  Yet the woman I envision, still is in the distance. Which is good, because where would we be if we didn't have to reach for our goals?

This year I plan to draw on that strength, and own it.  For so many years I was living from a place of FEAR.  I think it's about time that I live from a place of STRENGTH.  And that is what I am choosing to focus on this year.  My strength.
