One Word 2024 - Flourish

 

Flourish

My motto this year borrowed from Created from the Hart is "The best way to get things done is to simply begin."  I haven't been very productive in my sewing, reading, or reviewing. 2023 has not been my friend. A series of small setbacks and losses balanced the past year with many wonderful, good people, and experiences. I am very grateful for all of my blessings, and I know that it is up to me to make 2024 outstanding. I want my One Word to reflect and support my focus. 

Choosing my word is easy some years and challenging others. I kept thinking of and seeing the word "choose" until someone suggested "Flourish". It took me a while, I wasn't completely sold, however, flourish started appearing in the last two weeks. 

I looked up the definition of flourish and this is what I found:

From the Cambridge Dictionary to grow or develop successfully:

  • To complete tasks - books, quilts, projects started
  • To embrace new techniques, experiences, people
  • To think before speaking; stand up for myself!
