My 365 and my Word for 2014

My word for 2013 was "Make" and as I read through that post, I realised that this word had stayed with me all year, and I think it was the perfect word!

Now we are in a brand new and exciting year - I still like all the things I wrote down for "Make" and would like to keep that as a "forever" word!

However, as I have been considering my word for the year, I have been making a new blog (see top tab!) which was inspired by this video clip.  She started it because she was unhappy and needed to focus, which is not my case, but I think it's just such an amazing way to really look and see who and what is around you - and appreciate every detail of it.

I am grateful for so many things already on a daily basis, things that may seem obvious - so won't name them, but I never want to take them for granted.


The more I have spent time getting my new 365 blog organised, the more I have realised how much I have to the grateful for.  

So, I feel that my word for this year is just that:


Wishing you all a beautiful 2014 and may 
it be filled with gratitude!

    2. Hi Rob,

      It's a pleasure - I so enjoy your writing and your transparency. It's very refreshing and encouraging for me too. I understand that some times are easier than others to comment and/or blog in general so I am happy to see you back here.

      I still can't comment on your blog from blogger, (soooo annoying!) so will continue to tweet you or comment from my WP blog!

      "Cheers" - Here's to adventures in our journeys in 2014.
