Word of the year: Family

A new year.

Another blog post to kick off the new year.

To begin this new year I decided to follow the social media trend of choosing a word of the year.

The point of this is to focus on this word throughout the year as one embarks on adventures each week. This word can be used as a motivator, a descriptor, a resolution, or even just a reminder of ones hopes for the year. When one gets discouraged they can focus on their word. When you don't know what to do next consult your word. This is one--of many ways--to try and live with intentionality in the beginning of this year. Choosing a word helps you explore new ideas and experiences in the world around you!

My word for 2018 is: Family.

My goal for 2018 is to analyze and explore the word "Family." What makes someone family? What are ones obligations to their "family"? How can we best be a member of a "family"? These are but a few questions that I am beginning my new years quest with. As the year progresses more questions may arise as well. I'll start, like most people do, with one of the Merriam-Webster's definitions of family: "a group of people united by certain convictions or a common affiliation"

What's your #WordOfTheYear?
