This week’s prompt was to shoot your mug with a description of how you think other people see you. My interpretation of my picture was that other people probably see me as a creative crazy (in the nicest way possible) girl, flowery, and cheerful. Can’t say colorful because right now, my winter wardrobe is really, really gray.

So, this pic. One drawing is for a pal, and the other drawing is my “One Little Word“. This year I’ve chosen “Dare”. When I was younger (like high school) I used to give myself these pep talks in my head saying “Go. Do it. Go for the gold…” Weird Olympic reference. Somewhere along the way, I stopped giving myself pep talks. Then I started cycling again a few years ago, rode a 50-mile bike ride, and I felt like I could do anything!

My One Little Word: 1/20/14

Every year, I dream big, but maybe this year I’ll take it further and expand my journey with some guidance. I’m going to be bold, have courage, venture… I’m so excited to journal along with a ton of people across the world; everyone choosing their word and living it, exploring their lives with intention.

From last week… quiet night with dog-nephew, Graham. (This is also my year to finish some unfinished projects.)
