A New Year, A New Word, A New Resoultion

Happy 2010

Last year I was introdued to the concept of "A Word" for the new year (here's the link if you have not yet read all about it ) After thinking about what word I would like to use for the new year, I narrowed down my ever growing list to a single word that I think has a powerful meaning in an assorted sort of way. This year my word is Possibities.

Here is the deffintion

pos·si·bil·i·ty (ps-bl-t)
n. pl. pos·si·bil·i·ties
1. The fact or state of being possible.
2. Something that is possible.
3. possibilities Potentiality for favorable or interesting results

I think the word really has possiblity don't you (har har, just couldn't help myself) I remember when growing up the year 2010 seemed like something so very far away and the the world around us would be so very different--we'd all be driving around in floating cars while wearing silver suites and eating our meals via a pill. It all seemed far fetched and to be honest impossible. It also seemed as though the year was so impossibly far in the future that it would never ever get here.

Well here it is and I think that if you would have told me when I was ten that I would be listening to music on small little device that did not have a record or a tape I would not believe you, and the idea of having a home theater was about as fancyful as having a camera right in your phone. So really anything is possible.

As with last year, I am going to apply my word to every aspect of my life--there are many possiblities that can happen were my health is concerned. I have signed up for my very first half-marathon (actually twice, oops) and I know that the possiblities that will come with getting ready for that and the all the possible feeling I will have after crossing the finish line will be endless I am sure.

I think of all the possiblities that will be happening with my children and loving husband. I could write a book about all that could happen.

The sky is not the limit, for I would like to go above and beyond all that I can and cannot see. All the beautiful possiblities that lay ahead are just waiting for me to achieve.

Now that I have my word out there for the world to see, I will let you all in on the secret of what my resoultion is this year. This year I am going to become a goddess. That is my goal and I resolve to hold myself to it.

While talking to the hubs about this desire, I found that not everyone thinks of goddesses in the same terms. He thought I wanted to be whorshiped by everyone--and well who doesn't enjoy that, but that is not at all what I mean, so I will explain.

I want to become better than I am today. I want to have my house in order, my health a priority, be good at the things that I do, and be calm and patient when things do not work as I had planned. I want to love more freely (not like that, geesh) what I mean by that is I want the people that mean the world to me to know it and feel it, not just assume or think it may be possible that they are special to me. I want to find the beauty that I often time have a hard time seeing in myself. I want to embody what my soul has been for years. I think there is a lot of possiblities to this resoultion, don't you?
