Leigh Anne says…
My phrase for 2009 is “Finding Joy in MY Journey”. I need to learn to better embrace and appreciate the things that happen along my Journey through life! Focus on and find the Joy!

Sherra says…
My mantra for 2009 is “I Have Enough”. I just feel like we always want more, more, more of whatever is in front of us and I’m really trying to focus on what I have and that it is Enough!

My word for 2009 is Patience.

I have to say that my word is “FAITH”!!!

Faith that the economy will only get better, faith that my cancer will not return, faith that people will respect eachother, faith that my daughters are learning the “right” things rather than wrong…the list could go on.

FAITH helps me stay POSITIVE each day!

My word for 2009 is WALK. I’ve not had any exercise for a very long time because of health issues. I just got a treadmill so now I can control what I am walking on, so now I will be able to WALK again. Besides, it’s so fun!

Mine is still HOPE. I hope that things well get better, Hope that my children understand the things have be taught to them to help them to be a husband and father and our daughter to be a good wife and mother. Hope they will teach their children to love and respect other people and their teachings even if it is different from ours.

My word is Inspire, I have so many people who inspire me! I hope that this year I will make a better effort and helping others recognize how they inspire me. Thanks to you Leigh Anne for constantly inspiring me and my family!!

My word is KINDNESS. I have it as a vinyl cling (actually “Kindness Matters”) above the kitchen sink. It reminds me to do all things with kindness. From interacting with my kids (they point to it to remind me sometimes!), to simple connections in public, when I try to do everything with kindness, life just goes better!

I love Bonnie Parkin’s idea that we can do ordinary things with extraordinary love. So my word is extraordinary!

You all have such great words! I love the Bonnie Parkin quote too Anne!

Debbie – I too have a sign similiar over our kitchen table area – it says “Because Nice Matters” I point to it a lot!!
