One Word for 2013


Blogging friend Danielle's post at "Unconventional Photography"
 rekindled something I've been mulling the past few days.  
What?  One word to be the center
 of what I want in the new year of 2013. 
 A journaling friend 
introduced that concept to me some years ago.  
Friend River would provide rocks, paint and supplies
 for each of us to decorate around the word we chose.  
She led off the "rite" by having us sit quietly
 and wait for our word to come to us.  
Interestingly, that worked even for me.  
Two years ago, the word 'trust' repeated in my head.  
So that was my word. 
Sorrowfully, 'trust' didn't stay with me.  
She moved out without giving me notice!
I've been working to entice her back,
 but...
she is reluctant.
Consequently, 
I have invited someone 
who seems more spiritually-minded, 'entrust'.  
So, 'entrust', welcome and please
make yourself at home in my head!
Your lease is for one year,
or more!

I love it, Norma! This is a great word. I think that its relationship to trust is also an important aspect that you will contemplate well this year. Happy New Year, my dear friend! I love you!

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether ...
