Special Friday Edition – What’s your word of the week?

Q&A | June 19th, 2008 No comments

It’s always a good time to be yourself. And it’s never too late. Possibility exists all of the time, everywhere. You haven’t missed your moment to be your most beautiful. – C&D’s Manifesto of Style

Carrie says: Nurture. I’m committed to watering and nourishing things in my life. From relationships to work projects–giving things the warmth they need to grow.

Danielle says: Freedom. Old freedoms are what I miss, new freedoms are what I want to create. This week, I’m going to meditate on what freedom looks like and feels like for me.

The old saying, “if you’ve lost something set it free, if it comes back to you, it was yours, if it doesn’t, it never really was”, can be applied to the lost parts of our personal humanity. Even if we have continuously repressed or neglected the truest aspects of our being, that energy can come back into our lives with only the slightest invitation. Because, that which is true rests easy and hopeful – like flowers rest in winter, knowing that spring always comes. So don’t fret. Your mojo and moxy are always within reach.

This coming week: ponder a part of your self that you’d like to revive…the part of you that was playful – no matter who you were with; the part of you that used to plant a big kiss on your partner when they came home; the part of you that believed the world was waiting for you with great anticipation. Put a name to that part: free, sexy, audacious…and make that your word for the week (if you have a Style Statement, perhaps it’s one of your two words.) You don’t need a ‘revival plan’ or an action list — just one word, invited back with all your heart.
