Have you picked a word that will guide you through the year? For example is it Clarity, Mindfulness, Self Love. I was thinking on buying myself those pretty Valentines flowers next year. I dont need a man to buy them for me. Not worth it for all the headaches he could bring hahaha. Just kidding. But yes part of self love and enjoying the occasion with the my greatest love of all - myself. I havent come around the word of the year for me. Any ideas?

@yoalldudes I have a big garden. As soon as spring starts I will be gardening every day, thing that I do since we bought this house 23 years ago.

@yoalldudes I wrote this poem a long time ago LOVE YOURSELF When you are left alone to fend for yourself When those that you cared for put you in a shelf, The best of the best comes out of you Your life gets a hue totally new Your limbs become stronger, your mind alert You no longer worry; you can handle the hurt The artist in you comes to the fore, You can write and paint as never before You choose to discard what bears you down And pick only that that takes away your frown Life is great you happen to find Tis easy to relax and truly unwind When you are left alone to fend for yourself, When those that you cared for put you on a shelf, The best of the best comes out of you Your life gets a hue totally new The dark clouds that were are there no more Its peace and quiet that touches your core Its your time to do whatever you please Giving your life a renewed lease He will be there when others flee He is your support He helps you with glee He walks with you through thick and thin He is there inside you just look within.

I've never heard of picking a word of the year... I hope you find one you feel you can live up to.

It seems for me it is "Escapism"

@yoalldudes That would be one way of seeing the year.

I agree with Anna. Healthy. I hope that I will lose weight and become healthier. It would be hard to pick a word for you since I don't know what your goals are for this year.

That is a good word of intention for you and Anna. Best of luck to us this year.

It's a good idea. Maybe I would choose self-love, I think that's what I miss the most.

I also feel like much in need of that. But I feel like I wouldnt be able to live up to that because of obligations. Most probably next year.

I wouldve chosen that one but I felt like that has been the only thing I have been experiencing the past decades of my life. But I still need it. Good luck with yours.
