Guess what time it is? It’s Word of the Year time!!!
The end of December came upon me rather quickly this year and I realized I hadn’t really given much thought to what my word for 2021 would be. And I had a few people ask me and I. Had. No. Idea. None!
So, I did what anyone does these days. I googled it. And I came upon THIS quiz. I love a good quiz so I took it. And low and behold, it gave me a really good word for 2021. OVERCOME
See, there’s been a lot of changes and struggles in the past 2 years in my life. If you know me in real life, you probably know some of what’s been going on, and if you’re a reader here, maybe someday I’ll be in a place to share more. But let’s just say that it’s been tough, I’m good, but yeah, tough. Last year my word was SEEK { which you read about HERE and HERE } so I feel like OVERCOME might be a really thing to spend some time focusing on for the near future.
I had coffee with friends on the last day of 2020. We sat around my living room and talked about some of the plans we have for 2021. It was fun to make a time for deliberate conversation about the coming year. I don’t tend to set goals. Maybe some loose ideas of things I want to do and would like achieve. Nothing concrete.
I shared with them a few of the things that I would like to OVERCOME in the coming year. Personal things that I won’t share here. But this is a year for a lot of potential growth in my life. And I feel like OVERCOME might just spur me on.
And the more I think about OVERCOME, the more I like it. Some things will be up to me to OVERCOME like some of my fears and insecurities but then I think about it globally and think, yeah, this is a great word for 2021.
If you have a Word of the Year, I’d love to hear about it! Feel free to leave your word and a little of the background behind it in the comments!
Warmly,
Lori
