"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

savor~




“You'll seldom experience regret
for anything that you've done.
It is what you haven't done
that will torment you.
The message, therefore, is clear.
Do it!
Develop an appreciation
for the present moment.
 Seize every second of your life
and SAVOR it.
Value your present moments.
Using them up in any self-defeating ways
means you've lost them forever.”
Wayne Dyer

~SAVOR~

as we started
2010
i had chose


as my word to live by
my word to help me embrace life


i love words

and i love the word

SAVOR

so rich and beautiful

as the days weeks and months have passed
i have attempted to

SAVOR

each minute and moment that has gone before me

i truly have to say
having a word
to keep in the back of your mind
a tinsy reminder
even when days are ever so hard
 really can help to lift your spirit
change your outlook
guide you onward and upward

so to 2010
332 posts to this date
all written and labeled under

SAVOR

thats almost one post for each day of the year
i think i may have done very well
at attaining a word
i could truly live by

so so soon i shall
bid you adieu
dear 2010
and prepare to
welcome another new year

 and no worries
i will indeed carry

SAVOR

with me always

do you know what word
i have chosen to live by for 2011

i'll give you a hint
it starts with
"L"

~have you chose a word for the new year~

Savor was a very good word. As far as "L", it could be "love" or "live", but are those too obvious? I haven't given thought to a word to live by, but I like the idea very much. It will "linger"(?) on my mind. Blessings to you, Faerwillow. Robin.

I remember seeing people post about choosing a word for the year and thinking " what a fantastic idea, I should do that" and then not being able to think of a word that I knew would continue to have meaning and one that would move me forward. I'm flighty with my words and tend to like the ones that cling to the past a little more than the future and I didn't want to go into a year backwards. Perhaps I'll consider a word for this year, and perhaps not.

One thing I have noticed since I started to read your posts here is that you do savour each moment. It comes through in your writing. It seems that you have chosen the right word for 2010, one that will most certainly continue to light your path into 2011.

I love this post. My word for 2010 was comfortable, and boy did I keep that in the back of my little mind all year long. I haven't thought about my word for 2011 yet.....but now you've got me thinkin'.

Hmmm...I had not given thought to a word to live by but I really like the idea. Savor is awesome - and reading all your posts you have truly lived up to the word. I will be interested to learn of your new word. Much happiness to you in the coming of the New Year! Theresa
