My "one little word" for 2014

For the past couple of years, I have picked one word to try to make my focus for the year instead of setting some resolution that I would surely abandon.  In 2012, my word was peace and this past year my word was grace.   Both served me well.

As I was thinking about what I wanted my 2014 word to be, I thought a lot about what my challenges have been in this past year.  I wanted a word that would help calm and center.  I wanted a word that would help me continue to embrace the current moments without worry of what has already happened or what could happen in the future.  I wanted a word that would just help me be.

And so my word found me this year.
