“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
– Mary Oliver.
Is this something you have thought about lately?
A time to think about your own intentions and just how your wild and precious life can be.
I believe hope is fundamental to the human spirit.
That dreams are where ideas are born.
That our imaginations help us to carve new paths and see new perspectives in our lives.
Change can be hard and it’s important to have reality checks so we can prepare for this… but your desire for growth, learning, and change are essential to your well-being.
Change rarely happens in the ways we think it will.
Let’s create an Intention. This can bring tremendous insight into your life. Let’s dip into our deepest selves and set a clear one-word intention that helps us navigate life with compassion and intention.
Each year my word holds the key to a valuable piece of insight.
