#SOL24: #OLW

Time: A) Is going too fast? B) Is going too slow? C) . . . .

What is your answer?

My energy level does not always match my curiosity and my “to do” list. I wish the aging cycles included more energy as time on Earth increases. I’d love to have the energy of the kids . . . I think!

Last week I revisited my 2023 #OLW act here as I was still vacillating between my final choices. 

This post from 2017 has a resource about #OLW in case you are not familiar with the concept. 2017 was the year that I began posting my word on my blog background so I could see it every week. What a great reminder as I considered how to use my #OLW as my North Star.

I did wonder about re-cycling a previous word. Some of my past words still fit today and could possibly serve me well in 2024. But I was drawn to a specific word over and over. It’s a word that has been with me since a dear friend was diagnosed with cancer in June. It’s a word that I’ve used in a series as I wrote Christmas cards and mailed out greetings (snail and email) to friends across the miles.

What’s your #OLW? How did you find your word?
