I was reading Ali Edward’s blog this morning and she was bringing us back to the word we chose as our theme for the year. I can not remember what I picked. So many things happened this year I did not expect and honestly, my focus stopped being on my chosen word.
I was looking back through some of my journals and one word kept coming up over and over again. Connect. Over and over and over again, variations of this word kept coming up in my art and my writing.
Dealing with various trials this year helped me reconnect with my Spirit. Scrapbooking and creating art helped me connect with many wonderful creatives. Speaking at BlogHer connected me with kindred spirits who believe you can post a message that resonates with someone and counter negative energy with an abundance of positive energy. Being in uncomfortable, even confrontational situations connected me with my inner warrior. Sometimes, you have no idea how strong you are until you are forced out of your comfort zone.
I see this word everywhere. One of my favorite magazines (and I have many) to read is Hallmark. They have an entire section devoted to connecting. When I shoot photography that involves more than one subject, I look for connections. Those are the images my clients love because this is how they see themselves. Connected.
That word is so profound. So powerful and I will honor it by looking for connections in my daily life, in my relationships and with my Spirit. You can not ask for more than that.
