One Little Word

So it's that time again when some of us choose one little word for ourselves.  A word to help us set some goals for the year...to guide us through the next 365 days.  Normally I choose a verb, an action, as my word; and so, after a whole day's worth of thinking I decided on focus.  It's a really good word, I think.  And yet, something nagged at me...the word focus just didn't feel like my word for 2013...

it didn't feel right enough for me right now.

And then I remembered  something I had read once, about a father wishing his child enough.  Not too little, not too much...just enough.  I realized my word didn't always have to be a verb.  It could be something else.  And so, my word for 2013 is enough.

 

I have just enough "riches" to remember I am so very blessed.

I have just enough "troubles" to remember to be grateful.

 

I have enough friends that I don't feel alone in this world.

I have enough family that I know I am loved.

Yes, enough is the right word for me. 
I want to remember that who I am and what I do is enough. 
 I am not perfect; but, I am good enough. 

For the 363 days that remain in 2013, I will try to

*Do enough

*Laugh enough

*Give enough

*Focus enough

*Love enough

And to each of you, I wish you enough.
