For the past several years I've chosen a word to live by, or rather, the word seems to choose me. I don't think about it every single day...and I need to write it on a sticky note so I even remember it...but still I choose one, and still it seems to play out in my life.

This year the word that popped into my head (without hesitation) as I considered what the word for 2015 would be is...intention.

This year I will focus on living with intention...spending time intentionally...aiming for things, setting goals, and planning my time better.

Originally I thought the word was intent...but when I looked up the definition for intention it included that part about "the healing process of a wound". It kind of caught me off guard...I'd never heard of the word intention used in that way before. But it caught my attention immediately, and I knew that intention was the word, and that part of the plan for 2015 is to heal some old wounds. Apparently it's time.
