one little word



well 2009 is officially here. I have been thinking all week about how I want to live life this year. Last year I wrote about my one little word HERE. after much thought I have chosen the word Choose for my word for 2009.
Life is all about choosing. In my day there are a million moments that collide. I can shape each one - all based on a choice. What kind of day will I have? How will it affect those around me, especially my family. Looking back over this last year I have made a ton of choices; some good, some bad. But each one shaped me. My attitude on any given day was just a product of how I chose to live.
This year I want to be constantly aware and always choosing life for myself and those around me.
I choose to live positively
I choose the golden rule.
I choose to be AT PEACE WITH MYSELF
I choose salvation and to walk out of the prison I have made for myself and into the palace
I choose to make a difference and live outward
I choose to be happy in my body
I choose to be myself and I choose to wake up each day with the intention of living each moment with the best choice I can make.
