Each year I reveal a word to color the coming year that will tether both my intentions and goals while finding meaning to the next 365 days. This year LIGHT chose me, and am eager to embrace it with my daily routine.

Light

noun

Something that makes things visible or affords illumination: All colors depend on light.

verb

to cause (the face, surroundings, etc.) to brighten, especially with joy
to guide or conduct with a light:

Idioms

bring to light, to discover or reveal:
come to light, to be discovered or revealed:
light at the end of the tunnel, a prospect of success, relief, or redemption:

Reflect, radiate, illuminate, spark, glow, shine, inspire, bright

My decision for the word light arrived early, entering before I even began the process of choosing as I connected the areas of transformation I seek for 2018.

Light - to be the light - Inspire
Light - to lighten things - minimalism
Light - light hearted - kindness to myself and others
Light - lose weight, be active - exercise and weight loss
