Today while driving home from my grandmother's house, I stumbled upon a thought about my favorite word. I remember my friend had told me that one of his college applications required him to write about his favorite word and why it was his favorite word. He chose some technical term that I had not heard before he mentioned it. At that time and even now, I am not sure what my answer to that question would be. I have some guesses, but what makes a word your favorite? Is it the sound of the word when you say it, how it looks when you write it, what the word means?
If I absolutely had to chose one, I think that I would select the word serenity as one of my favorites. Although I do not think it is the most beautiful sounding word, it is very meaningful. In addition, it is something that I want to incorporate more into my life because I think that it is essential to being happy.
Do you have a favorite word? If so, what is it, and why do you think you selected this word?
I think that my favorite word may suggest that I am sensitive and that peace of mind is important to me. What does your favorite word say about you?

Dear Fencer ,
That a really nice topic you have given to mylot user and yes as you ask that do you have any Favorite work I think yes I got one and it is "GOD" and the reason why it is because HE was the who save me in my mothers Body and keep me alive for 5 months without breathing .. and my Favorite word is GOD because He never leave me alone He was always with me whenever I needed him and still was with me when o forgot him ..
He save me from from many Accidents and was my Protector , He gave me the reason why i am living he showed me my destiny he blessed me with mother , father and a family and for all that Uncountable Blessings that make me feel alive ..
I love the Word GOD because he was the one who help me when I was alone , He helped me when I was sick , He gave me strength when I was weak , He stand by me when ever i feel alone , He helped me when the world was against me ..
My Favorite Word GOD Because it is the reason behind my success and failure for all the things that I got in life ..
GOD keep everyone blessed
Happy Mylotting

That`s a very interesting topic right there ! hmm .. If i will choose my favorite word maybe it will be the word POSITIVE. Every morning i remind myself to think positive. When i have a problem or there is a situation that does not make me feel good, I always tell myself that everything happens for a reason and it may be challenge or negative for now but sooner or later i will appreciate and know the main purpose why it happens. When i was a student, i also always attach the word positive in my reviewers. I really like that word. It helps me motivate and appreciate everything in life

My favorite word is BLESSED. I've always been grateful to our dear Lord for having blessed me with a loving husband, three lovely kids, and a happy life. I also always use this word for others when I greet and bid them. I'd say it and I really mean it when I do so. =)

My word will be a little bit off the beaten path when compared to these nice-sounding words like serenity and blessed and whatnot. My word is ragamuffin. I do not know why, but this word is funny for me to say. It also reminds me of muffins, which are fun to eat (even though the word doesn't have anything to do with edible muffins).
